Anya Christina Emmanuella Jenkins. Twenty years old. Born on the fourth of July — and don't think there weren't jokes about that my whole life, mister, 'cause there were. 'Who's our little patriot?' they'd say, when I was younger and therefore smaller and shorter than I am now.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Our house has become Spider Manor. I think they're sending each other little spider e-mails about the lovely house with the slow humans.

I am displeased with this turn of events.

I don't want to go outside. Freaked by the spiders.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I am glad that Puppycat might be dim, but she's a pretty good spider detector.

I have had a nice and productive morning that combined going through mail, sorting/proto-filing things and burning the dregs. Good mornings have coffee, feelings of accomplishment and FIRE.

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

The other day I found a bigass spider perched on the edge of the cats' water bowl, which I had just picked up to refill.

There may have been squeeking.

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

I so don't get the Melanie Oudin love. I have no interest in hearing her talk, ever.

And I'm pissed that CBS decided to give priority to a non-match-deciding Djokovic/Witten point (tiebreaker, but still) while Federer was serving for his match, in a bout during which he'd struggled, keeping the latter in a tiny screen and not giving us audio.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

A panhandler on State St. this morning was holding this sign: Girlfriend kidnapped by ninjas; need money for ransom and kung fu lessons.

If I'd had any cash on me I'd have given him some.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So I'm watching this debate among candidates for district attorney. The host asked if the three had ever done drugs other than marijuana, and when two of them said yes, he said, "I want to make sure you heard the question right -- other than marijuana???" They still said yes, 30 years ago.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Hee. Okay, I went back and jillifonted my dream. Usually I dream about doing dishes or something, so this was noticeable.
