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

Yeah, it's a fragment of a sentence that leaps right off the page, isn't it?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sheesh, scrappy! At least it's more interesting that work bullshit for most of the rest of us...

I was using them to rip a seam to replace the zipper! And then when I stitched the seam back up, they got sewn inside.

It sounds even weirder, doesn't it?

And then I went through airport security several times over the next year before they attacked me.

She was very happy to get them back. None of the other scissors on the market quite compare.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

uh huh.

Pour yourself a cocktail and put your feet up. Skritch the pets and treat it like PPV.

I think ita's got the right idea there, Scrappy.

To add to the weirdness, I have the scissors she confiscated from the c-section with my brother.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Thanks for the facebook thoughts. I feel weird about it because I am Sophia Brooks on the internet, but I need to use my real name for this facebook group, and then I somehow have mixed identities.

Scrappy, I also think a cocktail would help.

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

A cocktail would very likely help, but it will have to be later, as I am leaving at 500am to make an 8am plane and I still have to pack and must do that before I collapse. I must say venting a bit has cooled me down, so thanks y'all.

sara, WTF?! c-section scissors in your coat? (BTW, wanna come visit at the end of the month?)

I spent $70 at Ikea and got 4 lightbulbs, and 2 lamps. The lightbulbs cost as much as the lamp!

Oh, dear. Tonight's Mission: Impossible is one of the difficult ones. I thought I'd gotten the hand of watching them. Mostly I'm distracted by the idea of that many white people doing so much manual labour in the Caribbean in the 70s.
