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.

F2F5: I forget that everyone isn't us

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

brenda! I spaced! I am in town, current plan is for LAistas to meet up at 6pm at Bacaro [link] Sunday the 24th.

I fb messaged some of you, but if you didn't get it, please accept my apologies, and let Kat know if you can make it!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

brenda, I messed up the dates, so I am no longer free on Friday night, but I can definitely make myself available on Saturday if you're interested.

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

My schedule's gone all wonky anyway. I may not have the free time I thought. I'll send you a text if anything changes but not sure yet. Sorry to be so flaky!

No worries. That's the magic of having a friend who's an introvert. I'd love to see you and hang out, but staying home can sometimes be its own treat! (Plus, I have a plan B if we don't make plans). Anyway, yes, it would be awesome to hang out, but if your schedule refuses to be controlled, I understand.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I'll be in Chicago for work Thursday, April 28, but I won't know until (hopefully) later this week whether I'll actually even be free for drinks/dinner. There may be a work dinner that would eat up my free time, but they haven't decided on that yet. And then I fly home the next day.

Teppy, if you do have time I might be able to get away from tech during the dinner break (5:30 or 6ish).

That which does not kill you should RUN

Aurelia, I do have a work dinner, but I don't know what time. Basically, we have a meeting until 4:30 or 5, and then at some point dinner. I don't know if it will be soon after the meeting (like 6), or later. If it's later than 6, I could meet you after the meeting ends. I'll just have to post here tomorrow when I know.

I've got it now, so you can delete whenever.
