Crap. I can't believe I forgot Edward Albee. There's a canon playwright if I've ever heard of one.
I thought of him, but I thought it was a stretch to label what he does comedy. Absurd? Yes. Funny? Occasionally but more often bleak as hell.
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Punishingly Intricate
lisah, I've seen pictures of your ass. It's just fine.
Too big for a carseat though!
I want to buy one of these [link] both for the gym and for work. But I wonder if I would be able to do yoga in it?
hmm...they are cute and I bet would be fine in terms of range of motion. I feel like the skirt part flapping up would bug me in yoga.

Right. That's my issue. Headstands should not be encumbered by a flappy skirt.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I would love to do krav in one of those skirts, but we have to train in krav-logoed clothing.
I could do kettlebell...I mean, if I could do kettlebell.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I was just attacked by a dog. It was a rather tiny dog, about the size of a small cat. I think it was trying to bite me but I'm not sure - if it was, it never managed to penetrate my jeans. Anyway, it just kept walking behind me, yapping and nipping at my ankles... so damn cute.

In the course of editing, I ran across this author name (last name): Blobstein.
Which, naturally, led us into a whole Bob Loblaw/Arrested Development riff.
