Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.

Our wings are not tired.

Pretty pretty snow! Yes, I do like it a lot more when I can look at pictures from the comfort of my toasty warm living room. We're supposed to be in a cold snap. It is 72, which cooler than it has been, but not so cold.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I like snow, but I have to say that I don't miss winter one bit. Thirty years was enough winter for me.

Le word. Besides, if I really miss winter, I could drive two hours to Tahoe.

Sue, you dreamt that onions were going to take over the earth? Interesting...

I had a lot of dreams last night, but now I don't remember them. Which is good, because in the middle of the night at some point, I woke up, and was like "Ooh, these dreams are so real...I hope I don't have a hard time remembering in the morning what ACTUALLY happened vs. what was a dream!"

Anyone else ever have that issue? Have a really vivid dream about someone, and then even though you KNOW they didn't do whatever, you're still angry/betrayed/turned on/whatever?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Totally.

I, OTOH, had a dream last night in which Jon Bon Jovi was giving a concert naked. No, I don't know. But I woke up totally earwormed with Shot Through the Heart.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I had a dream recently where my best friend was avoiding me -- ducking out of rooms as I came in, running down hallways and so on -- and then when I did catch up with her, she refused to talk to me.

I woke up wanting to call her on the phone immediately and demand "Was it somethign that I DID?" because it had been so vivid and frustrating.

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

I am angry at the world and no one I am coming in contact with today is helping.

- horrid hateful email forwarded from cousin with extreme Christian fear-mongering
- Clueless parents at the Y making getting mac changed an extreme sport
- McD employee unable to get my order even into the system
- McD order wrong when I got it
- McD having no sink in one bathroom and a non-closing door on the other
- rain
- girl on subway body-checking me so I got separated from mac
- not-our-library hiding from me and not being where the map said it was

I have responded in turn to almost everything above, but what I think I may really need is a fight class today. It is not going to happen, but maybe I can do some punching and kicking drills - it won't be as good as actually having contact, but it may work.

Well, they were sentient robots by the end of the dream. Attempting world domination is the next logical step.

I once dreamt that I was trying to invent a potato that could transcend space and time. Apparently, my subconscious has a thing about root crops.

Ah msbelle, that's not a good day.

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

Drove up to Watertown last night, hit every bit of traffic and rain possible

Went on second instead of first. Good show.

Drove back to NYC. Got home by 4:00.

Couldn't fall asleep until 7:00.

Woke up at 2:30. Rainpocalypse. No urge to get out of bed yet.

Trust my rage

getting separated from a child on the subway is one of my huge fears.
