We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

I was going to make soup. But I'm missing a key ingredient. Oh, I could polish up all my silver jewelry (the majority of 55+ earring.) I forgot to get silver polish when I was out.

I could clean. But I was going to do that tomorrow.

I could sit on my ass, reading. I have lots of books. Yay.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Totally random question: what's the name of that instrument that Mickey plays in A Mighty Wind? Kind of like a hand-held harp, but with a back?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Auto-harp?

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

Zither?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

They're both pretty similar, but I think Scrappy's right.

Yep, Scrappy's right. It's a zither. Thanks!

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

We had one of those when I was wee. My mother was so desperate to have a musical genius in her offspring. Poor lady.

zither!

I'm freezing. Granted it is 67 degrees just not in my house.

I talked to my mom and she told me that my sister has liver cancer. Oof.

Oh fuck, Kat. That's terrible.

Oh no, Kat. I'm so sorry.
