Now tagless for your comfort.

Owen gets off the school bus.

Today was his second day of school. I took him yesterday because the bus was REALLY late (crazy scheduling) and I wanted to talk to his teachers again, anyway.

You know, I don't care if it makes me look less than proactive, but I'm not waiting outside of the men's room for my boss to come out, on the chance that's where he is. Just no.

I may have survived today. Saw some error messages I really don't like just as I was leaving. Oh, and other people broke 1/4 the system. So that's not working. I don't know how more emphatically we could say, two days ago: "We can't make it work until you give us X. It's broken. We need X." To which the proper reply is not,two days later, "Oh, do you really need X? We'll get to it. Tomorrow."

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

ita, I'm not sure I'm remembering this right but did they bring up that argument immediately or only after they'd "proven" that the acquittal was just when the other guy came up? If the felony status of the weapons charge depended on him being convicted of the rape, then how would the jury have even had the option to convict on the latter but not the former? But I have no idea how that would actually work in process.

My biggest takeaway from the show was so, you've set up your protagonist as a whiny, self-centered borderline racist with a temper. Plus bad hair. How's that gonna work out for you?

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

I have a few choice words for Apple right now, if it would help?

I can add a few, too. My PowerBook just went down for the count for the second time in 6 months. I don't know when I'm going to have the time to take it for repairs and I don't know how I'm going to be able to work without it. The last time the logic board went bad, this time? who knows but it is acting exactly the same way...argh!

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

So often I find myself yelling internally at the screen for characters to brush their hair. Raising the Bar is no exception.

Brenda, the public defender brought it up right after the verdict, and the ADA chick agreed with him after the found the correct perp (which, really, irrelevant, no?). I'd have thought that it'd be another note from the judge that you can't have an associated felony possession charge without an actual felony. Since that's what turned out to be true, no?

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Owen is precious.
