Dana, that would be the one, yes.
Take me, sir. Take me hard.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Yeah, it was bizarre. As was CBS' pointless replaying of it with the sound blocked out.

Art Crawl!!!
I agree - very bizarre and CBS did not rise to the challenge.
Wow. What an unexpected way for a match to end.

The status is NOT quo.
Nilly! Have a joyous wedding day. I wish you every happiness.
Happy Birthday, P-C!

And Aurelia, ND and I were both so sad to hear your news. Best luck finding something else soon, but what a loss for the community. And for you.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Dude, who's watching the U.S. Open? ita?
Wow. That was a thing. I can't lie--I think that Serena is usually so composed I'd be *very* surprised if she lost it enough to say she'd kill someone, even allowing for hyperbole. She's been mad for a lot of the match, but that's a lot of mad.

ita, you may not have seen it yet, but in her press conference, she said she misheard what the lineswoman said, and thought she was saying Serena had threatened to kill her, which she didn't.
What she did say was something along the lines of "I will take this fucking ball and shove it down your fucking throat."

I only watched the second half of the press conference, so I hadn't caught that.
Now, what she *did* say would have had the same result, but it's not a death threat.
Did you see the foot fault there? I didn't see one in the replay.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Thanks. It will be interesting to see what reaction there is in Highland Park when it's officially announced on Monday.
I'm not completely unemployed (which I think makes me ineligible for unemployment - I'm not sure how that works), but that was approx. 1/3 of my income and my source of insurance. It is strange to suddenly have an empty calendar for October and December (and beyond).
