I'm now home. We didn't have a snow day, but we did close early (12:10) because of snow. Which means that I have all the drawbacks of a snow day (rehearsal cancelled, speeches cancelled this afternoon even though my 6th graders brought in all their stuff and some of it was food stuffs) and none of the sleeping in benefits.
Gunn: You ready? Fred: Is no an acceptable answer?

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Did they chew Trident?
Well Kit (my mother's mother) certainly didn't, she had no real teeth left by the time she died.
And it turns out they are in the Assumption Cemetery.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Seems like a totally unremarkable name to me, at least for a Catholic cemetery.
It seems cross-purposed to me. My cemetery, his resurrection. Or do we get resurrected for the second coming? My knowledge is faulty there.

sarameg- if you're around? I need someone to talk me back from a ledge.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
"As you can see from this description, this argument is extraordinarily [tenuous, I guess]."
I know there's a math/comp-sci term, for not being able to gate through to the next state until all the parameters are turned to Yes, but I can't come up with the equivalent in rhetoric that fits into one word.
I might rephrase the sentence to say, "As you can see from this description, the argument's logic relies on many conditions which are yet to be proved."
That's not very stinging, I guess. What I would say in casual speech is: "That's a lot of Ifs for a single Then statement!"

not your mom's socks.
What, are you reading the latest WYPR news?
no - more of an "I'm worried about being a mom from hell and need someone who is a kick-ass friend-of-children" reality check (and I'm thinking that you worked as a nanny for a while too)... most of it is over in bitches - except for what's happening now. I'm freaking because I don't know if this is _because_ I'm working from home, or if something similar would be happening if I weren't here. In which case, I would have to hurt someone. You know the rights and wrongs of all of this - I'm hoping.

Have any of you ever shopped at Eyes Lip Face?. I ask because $1 makeup seems like a get what you pay for proposition.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Or do we get resurrected for the second coming? My knowledge is faulty there.
Yup, that's it. Second Coming = Big Finale Dance Number, everyone back on stage.
