Because books.

Which is hardly a practical exercise program.

I'm sure the Duggar mom disagrees.

I may have to seize the cat.

You guys talk a lot. It's nice.

Re: exercise - I'm in favor of dance, myself. I have to work around a limitation there, because one of my vertebrae is fused to my pelvis. Makes hip rotation a challenge and isolation nearly impossible (which is why I haven't tried bellydance).

Also gothy types have you seen this etsy shop? Dreadful Things by Raven

So excellent. (Though no totems to my personal taste. I prefer ankhs to crosses and moths or scarabs to spiders.)

ditaboo landed on my head this morning.

Ah, but was there blood?

So a moving nightmare woke me up. Dudes, that was 6 months ago! I'm done! No more moving anxiety to be had already!

I may have to seize the cat.

Kat, I love that shop. Every once in a while something in my size is in stock, and then I remind myself that I already have a very fine corset. Then I tell myself, "But that one is green..."

Next purchase of flamboyance: tophat from Gentleman's Emporium. (I will feel much more comfortable wearing that around campus than a crown or wings. The wings would be hard to sit on the bus with, and I only like to wear a crown when I'm feeling especially regal. But I do have a wide selection of crowns from which to choose.)

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Ah, but was there blood?

Not yet.

Okay, I *do* want a semi-colon. Seriously. But not very big, and I don't know where I want it.

You could have the dot on one finger and the comma on the next, giving you the ability to render the appropriate punctuation for the situation at hand.

If you put commas on fingers on both hands, and then you could make air quotes with style.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Hee! I love this idea.

One of the pitchers for the A's, Dallas Braden, has a moustahe tattooed on one finger so he can hold it under his nose for an instant 'stache.
