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.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That picture is awesome.

Yay Friday. Boo more rain.

Honestly, I'm thinking more about toy boats that have a dinky wind up motor of some kind? So, they, y'know, vibrate a little. External use, basically.

This is what I figured it was as soon as I read the words "toy boat fetish". I mean, did no one here see Tie Me Up! Tie Me Down!?

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Our receptionist with the stomach virus is bringing in doughnuts. Yay?

Just as long as she isn't bringing up doughnuts.

She actually brought in breakfast tacos. We got a long speech about how they're individually wrapped and she's going to stay away from them.

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 mean, did no one here see Tie Me Up! Tie Me Down!?

Long time ago. Long enough to have forgotten about any toy boats.

Dear Dana's Work Mates: If you have any suspicion you've caught the bug, please back away from the breakfast tacos.

Technically, it was a toy scuba diver, but the premise is the same.

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

super bad muscle thing going on in my right shoulder area. owie.

Alsa PITA invoice thing going on wherein I sent the original somewhere and did not document where. Now have an overdue notice and everyone I have been told to contact about it is trying to ditch involvement/responsibility. I have a call in to the company in England to try and get more info on the invoice so I can authoritatively stick it with someone today.

Also also, rain.
