I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I got a passport when I went to London in college, and had to get a new one when I went to Mexico in grad school. Or on a cruise? I can't remember which came first. I've been to Canada a few times, but maybe only once that I used the passport, because I was flying. I can't remember.

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

Being Jamaican means never going anywhere without a passport. I've had one, current, since I was one, and I always know where it is, since I'm usually in a foreign country.

ESPN has decided the Gentlemen's final was an instant classic so they're back to backing it on ESPN Classic. I rewatched the last set and the trophy presentation and I hope it's out of my system now.

Then my sister sent me this article which totally got my dander up. I'd be pro big babe tennis if it were used to smash his head in.

Electromagnetic candy! - Stark

Whenever someone mentions tossing a scarf around their neck, I think of Isadore Duncan. I can't even wear a turtleneck.

When I was a senior in highschool, my grandmother knitted me a 10-foot Dr. Who scarf, having never even HEARD of the show. My mom just told her, "Do this. He'll love it." And I did.

And I'd hurl it around my neck dramatically; geek friends thought I was being the Doctor. I knew better. Hee.

(My, I was a morbid teen. GO FIGURE.)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I should remember that the ita link rule also applies to articles about tennis.

(OMG FUCKHEAD.)

I suspect that on the way up I could have just shown one of the pictures of me posing with Ray Bourque and been waved on through.

It's probably true.

I have new passport pictures somewhere, and a renewal application somewhere else. I need to get on that.

I have been to England once, and to the US a handful of times.

I stayed home because my back was so sore I could barely move this morning. I have enough painkillers in me to kill a small dog right now, and still i have a headache.

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 always think Paris is filled with ridonkulously cute people eating baguettes and bitching about politics.

Which, you know, I'm sure is well balanced by horrendously ugly people eating kentucky fried chicken bowls and bitching about growing out their mullets.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I think I'm going to make those condensed milk "magic" cookie bars now. So the question then becomes, bring them to work tomorrow for Clean-Up day, Wednesday for staff meeting, or Thursday for a coworker's birthday? Hmmm.

“Not dead yet!”

Then my sister sent me this article which totally got my dander up. I'd be pro big babe tennis if it were used to smash his head in.

OMG, could that twatwaffled asshat been any more insulting?
