Now hold on, I'm gonna press the right pedal harder. I expect us to accelerate.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

In brightest day, in blackest night
No sandwich shall escape my sight...

Our wings are not tired.

Quester, I'm sorry to hear that. That sucks.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Hey, I have nothing critical to say about a fear of mustard, what with my fear of escalators and all. Glass houses.

Bummer about the job, quester.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

That sucks, quester.

I mean, that can't be good, right?

I did throw away my first laser pointer because my housebound and bored grandfather used it ALL THE TIME and made my cats neurotic. *twitchtwitchtwitch*

I got another one years later (just to fuck with my downstairs neighbor). My one cat figured out where the light came from too and would sometimes be too busy staring at my hand to chase the dot. At first I tried to be consistent about shining the light in my hand and "releasing" it onto the floor, then "scooping" it back up and making a show of putting the spot of light in the drawer and saying "goodbye!" so that she'd know we were finished and stop acting like a freak looking for the spot.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Well. It sure is early.

'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"

Dana, not for right-thinking/living people!

Quester, that sucks, no doubt at all. When that happens to me, I tell myself that they probably gave the job at the last minute to the boss's nephew, and they're going to be very very sorry....

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Like those things weren't scary enough.

Come to think of it, I could see Victorian doctors nicknaming those things 'egg beaters'.
