Shit I didn't say to a friend today: "Why the hell are you marrying him!?! "
Sorry, just needed to let that out somewhere.
Lindsey: Why--why did you... Lorne: One last job. You're not part of the solution, Lindsey. You never will be. Lindsey: You kill me? A flunky?! I'm not just...Angel...kills me. You...Angel... Lorne: Good night, folks.
'Not Fade Away'
Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I do like that in LA I get much less hassles from strange men than I did in Detroit. Or maybe it's a function of age.
I'm not as cautious as the average woman, and I should be. My idea of taking care on an Internet date is making sure I have a knife close to hand.

“Not dead yet!”
For those keeping count, she is the THIRD PERSON to buy me this shirt - all of whom shattered my delusions that I am Elphaba through and through by telling me, "Oh honey, no. You're Glinda."
Whereas I've received two Defying Gravity/Elphaba shirts as gifts.
So that leaves us at you're Florence, I'm Svetlana; you're Glinda, I'm Elphaba.
You get the showstopper song in Chess, I get it in Wicked.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Maybe I'm nobody's side.

“Not dead yet!”
I honestly think I'd trade you, given the opportunity, except I'm SO not a Glinda in any way, shape, or form.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
I'm not as cautious as the average woman, and I should be.
I sometimes worry that I'm not cautious enough when out and about after dark. You only have to be under-vigiliant once too many times.
On the other hand, right now I have my head quite full enough worrying about disability hate crime, for which the stats in this country are getting high enough that there are a number of places I will no longer go to, ever, and a lot of situations that I dread enough to avoid.
In short, leaving the house: it's not as fun as it used to be.

Trust my rage
This conversation is making me wonder if Im oblivious to danger around me. I do get my keys out but that's about it. Actually it occurs to me now that Joe is very careful when he is out. It's a by-product of his intel/counter-intel training. So maybe Im more conscious of safety than I thought but I rarely think of it in gender terms.

We're doing an art deco theme for the party (I'm very tempted to get an awesome art deco cake).C is AWESOME, and the save-the-date cards are super sweet! It's not an art deco cake, but it's cute!

So working super late, one would think I would SLEEEP super late. Nooooo. Maybe an hour more. And with a headache.
There was more. But sleep deprived/headachey head forgets.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh. So that's why the big adrenaline rush when neighbor-I've-never-met yelled at me while I was walking the dog. Right.
