I actually got to sing on stage with her 22 years ago. She was substantial. An amazing presence.
There's more than one way to skin a cat. And I happen to know that's factually true.

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I can contribute from below the shoulders to just above the knees.
Made an ER visit last night, and was lucky enough to get sympathetic doctors, both resident and attending. Which was good, because much pain. At least it's become clearly established that I'm in search of 3rd party pain management, and that the only place to get it within the network¹ is highly overbooked.
¹: Insurance doesn't demand I stay within network, but it does require more effort and justification on the part of the doctor who wants to get creative.

I can do hands right now but get 'em quick! I tend to bust them up (cut, bruise) pretty regularly.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I am swooning with envy. I fell in love with her voice decades ago through my mom's ancient but beloved Belafonte at Carnegie Hall LP, and searched local used record stores for years after chasing down her own LPs. I haven't listened to any of them in years now, but just thinking about her voice gives me goosebumps.

Well, my hair is freshly dyed and very, very shiny right now... My head, though, brain a little mushy and am still fighting off a cold a bit.

I love RE in full on rant mode.
Sigh. I must grade 10 more papers today plus a teacher-parent conference at Franny's school. Why this week? Next week I have time, this week NSM. But I am looking forward to the meeting.

Gah. I don't know when I'm flying out back home for Christmas, so I don't know how fast I need to have my father's Xmas gift shipped to me. I guess I splurge on the extra $15, just in case. I guess I must love the guy or something.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
