Phew! Good thing they're getting themselves wedlocked, in that case!
Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
This is one part 'WTF?' and ten parts 'Awesome!' Lemonade Stand Robber Thwarted By 12-Year-Old Girl
TERRE HAUTE, Ind. — Call it a lemonade standoff. A girl whose lemonade stand was robbed of $17.50 chased the suspect into a nearby home and called police, who spent nearly an hour trying to coax the man into surrendering.
"The guy came up and was, like, 'Give me your money,'" said 12-year-old Dominique Morefield, who was running the lemonade stand with a group of friends. "I was shocked. It was just my immediate reaction to chase after him."
Dominique dashed after the man who ran into a house, and then she called police. Officers eventually persuaded Steve Tryon, 18, to come outside after 45 minutes and arrested him on a preliminary felony charge of robbery.

hip deep in pie
So yesterday I had a migraine. Since it was my day off, I tried to ride it out, but by noon, it was clear I needed to go home. On my way home I stopped at the grocery store and picked up a few things, including a cucumber. Tonight I am looking for the cucumber, and I cannot find it anywhere. I am certain I bought it, I just fear that in my headachey haze, I put it somewhere odd. I hope I find it before it goes bad.

Now I'm really curious where the cucumber ended up. Tell us when you find it, 'kay?

I hope it won't be a gooey mess. I'm starting to wonder if maybe I forgot it at the grocery store. (I packed my own bag.) I am certain I picked one up, and checked it out. Where it went after that is a mystery.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I hope you find your cucumber Sue!
Temptress, sure, but without Eve, Adam would still be ignorant.
I never understood the hatred Judas either. I mean for Jesus to have died for our sins in the manner that he did, someone needed to betray him. Shouldn't we be happy that Judas did, otherwise-- no resurrection, which is pretty much the foundation of the Christian Church?
All the weddings are making me weepy. Especially little olf people getting married. I think of how much my grandparents (heterosexual married couple) couldn't STAND each other when they were old, so I think it is great that these people are still together and seemingly happy, and they get to get married!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

This is what I'm saying. I don't know why they couldn't have made honest women of each other before the baby was born.... oh, right. Yeah I do.
I swear, for the past several years I've been glad to be from Massachusetts, so I can get gay-married in my home town. To a man, presumably, but still.

And the whole "Jews killed Jesus!" idiotic thing. Aside from it being the Romans, isn't the crucifixion the whole basis of the religion?!?!? Fulfilling prophecy and shit??

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
But I often joke that I wouldn't mind surgery to be a few inches shorter.

God, my head is dizzy with work and notes and work and notes and phone numbers and more notes.
Getting much more used to handwriting, though.

I know! Between Phyl and Del (OMG I AM LONGTIME FANGIRL); and a pic from one friend's monster flickr set from Boston Pride of two dudes in a rickshaw-thing with a "54 years together, 4 years married" sign, and a hot young thing to pull the rickshaw; I Am A Sucker for the senior set today. I am a gooey mess, and not in the same way as Sue's cucumber. Also, Google made me all misty-eyed just by replacing the vertical border between search results and ads with a rainbow banner when I went to confirm the spellings of Phyl and Del.
