7 quakes? That's creepy. Makes me think unhappy thoughts.
I think I should repress them.
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I keep feeling phantom quakes now. But none of the real ones.

I'm watching Glee right now and got to say I ain't loving it. Which is bumming me, I wanted to like it.

Burrell, that was my reaction. It felt forced.

Trust my rage
All this talk of moving has got me looking forward to our move. Which I usually hate. And I do hate that moment when the movers arrive and it's not your home anymore but just a house full of stuff. Joe and I are working hard on throwing stuff away/giving it away this time.
I've already thrown away all the furniture broken from previous moves that we thought me might fix at some point in time. Next up - clothes. I'm thinking that even if it's a sweater that you would never wear in PR, I'm still gettign rid of it if it hasn't been touched in three years. It's time for new stuff - I'm a different shape than I was three years ago.
eta: and we still have no orders. So I'm planning on leaving in four weeks but there are no guarantees.

Next up - clothes. I'm thinking that even if it's a sweater that you would never wear in PR, I'm still gettign rid of it if it hasn't been touched in three years.
I did a massive clear-out of my old clothes when we moved last weekend. In the process, I had to deal with the fact that I have gone up several clothes sizes over the past few years, and that I'm unlikely to go back. And now I am over it.
New places are ace. Ours has a view of trains! We're right near one of the big London stations. Much fun. I'd become a trainspotter if I weren't just a bit too far away to see the numbers on them...

“Not dead yet!”
I want a new place if only it'll get me the hell out of Jacksonville and somewhere a) I really want to be and b) potentially living near friends.
Otherwise, my ass is parked here for the foreseeable future because I hate, hate, hate moving. I've been in awe of you guys who've been handling it so well.

Bev, JulieB -- I didn't know that moving was that imminent! It feels like time has speeded up considerably this year....

I recommend Pasadena.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I recommend Pasadena.
Pfft. That's still on the same continent. I recommend Melbourne.
