See, in my fantasy, when I'm kissing you... you're kissing me. It's okay. I can wait.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I dunno, ita. I really thought I was just being kind. I wrote off Lyme Disease and Astral Projection across the hall.

Speaking of, I'm having some difficulty writing that story, ethically? Morally? I'm exploring two things in the story, and one is that I'm grateful for my parents, who would never let me be sick and uninsured and in the care of my 26 year old sister who thinks exorcism is a way to treat mental illness.

The other is that if these people didn't live across the hall from me, I would never know anything about them, because I have low tolerance for stupid, and stupid just radiates from them.

I need to keep reminding myself that stupid also has feelings.

Neighbor called to ask if I would like her to bring me some breakfast in thanks for saving her the 50 dollar ticket, and to apologize for yelling.

Yeah. Glad I'm going to see the family for two weeks. I could use some unconditional love.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I really thought I was just being kind.

Sadly, that's not the point. If it's too stressful to be kind and receive asshattish responses, you have to be pickier about where that energy goes. It's almost superhuman to be able to just do and let it go, but for some recipients you have to protect yourself.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Well that's good. People get pissy sometimes.

Happy Birthday, Jesse!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I just completed getting all my personal pictures off my work computer. I even found two pics of myself in a public file in the office shared directory and deleted those.

Now to look for any personal docs.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

How was your Christmas, Laura? Did your dudes come through for you with some gifties?

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Happy Birthday, Theo! Happy Birthday, Jesse!

Allyson's story of her neighbor makes me very happy that my grumpiness doesn't really show in the am - I'm too incoherent. Otherwise I'd be owing a lot of people 50 dollar breakfasts.

thanks for all the baby pictures.

I'm not working today - but I am tomorrow. If I was working today, I'd be hoping that it was quiet.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
