Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Holy crap, I am so glad I beat the thunderstorms home! It is crazy outside! But I am dry and feeling cool breezes. V. nice.

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

I just made it too! I'm supposed to go a rooftop party tonight, I hope it clears up.

I feel like it will -- I think we've turned the corner to normal summer weather.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Cubs win, 5-4, and their biggest get of recent years, Milton Bradley, has stomped off in a snit because he got yanked by Pinella, changed into his street clothes, and drove out of the parking lot before the game was done. Asshole.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

The rain is still coming down and mac gets out of therapy in 10 min. Crud.

I glued on fake nails while he was in. They do not look as good as sara's but they should do.

And it stopped just as we left. Good times.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I think ESPN coverage of Wimbledon has been shit. Definitely this ridiculous focus on Twitter, and they had three of the female commentators who are former players do a segment called "Big Babe Tennis", which ended with them in a Charlie's Angels pose. (This was before yesterday.)

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I just ordered Ethiopian food for dinner! It's a luxury I haven't allowed myself in a while (it'll be like $40) but oh so yummy, and leftovers for days, of course.

I just put in one ac unit. The smallest one. No way in fuck I can wrangle the 60lbrs on my own. Finally got it figured out. It's cranking now, if for no other reason than Mister Kitty looked hot (it's in what I refer to as the cats' room because that was where I locked them on moving day that's where a litterbox is. And not much else.)

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

And when asked, they never copped to it being a Charlie's Angels pose, which was weird. It seemed obvious.

At least they had one of the male former players do diving volleys.
