Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I need to GET OUT OF HERE.

I have to do three loads of laundry, grab and pack toiletries for my trip, finish the last chapter and a half of my book for Agent Kate, and have 14 panic attacks.

I'll be in Monterey for a week at this ridic symposium that I've been planning for over a year. I expect horrible things to happen, which may include me spontaneously combusting.

Who said it was a good idea for me to put togetehr a symposium and write a book at the same time, and have them due/occur in the same week?

Me?

Oh.

Commit me, please.

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

Jesse, you know what ketamine is, right?

Hey, I just called you. [Allyson] To tell you a funny weird thing.

IKEA boat: [link]

I don't know if I'm more amazed about the boat to IKEA thing or that there's an IKEA in Brooklyn now.

Punishingly Intricate

going home and cleaning like a mad cleaning woman, then friends' bookstore's 16th b'day party, then picking up boyfriend at airport. Saturday is a beginner yoga class to, with any luck, show boyfriend that not all yoga is as suck ass as Bikram. Later dinner party at best friend's. Sunday morning Tour du Port, bike ride around b'more, at early o'clock. And hoping to not kill Chicago Bob with hills galore b'more! I had no idea Chicago was so flat!

It's supposed to be, and currently is, GORGEOUS weather here this weekend! Perfect for riding.

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

What, I am an information professional.

Also, a parent.

What.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Assuming things go smoothly, I should get out some time in the early afternoon.
