I'm up to 91 pages on my dissertation now. It needs serious editing, but I'm pretty much done with all the actual content -- I've got a bit of the last chapter left to write, and then I just need to write the introduction. Introductions always take me forever.
What you did to me was unbelievable, Connor. But then I got stuck in a hell dimension by my girlfriend one time for a hundred years, so three months under the ocean actually gave me perspective. Kind of a M.C. Escher perspective, but I did get time to think.
Angel ,'Conviction (1)'
Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Me and my urn:
You should always call it that.
"Honey, have you seen my death urn?"
Isn't it AWESOME???
Totes!

I'm trying to figure out what to keep in it until my demise. Maybe a secret stash of chocolate, that way it won't need to be emptied before I take up residency.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
ah ... thanks for the pictures, Aims. I was imagining a figural kind of thing.
And, yes, awesome.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
The Empress' Urn is truly a thing of wonderment.
And so is Monty Python's Universe Song: [link] which we haven't had here in a few weeks.

Coding and Sleeping
That is cool, and it would be perfect for your ashes. Uh, don't take that the wrong way.

Our wings are not tired.
That's great, Hil. I admire your discipline in plugging through this.
Yes, we need pictures of The Empress urn.
One of my dearest friends... No, really, one of my relatives is a lifelong Republican and I love to debate issues with him. He gets loud and excited supporting his positions and I can get loud and excited supporting mine. Then he pours another drink and declares that until one or the other side puts a million bucks in his bank account he don't care who is in charge. And we laugh and agree to disagree. It is only when you try and tell me that I can't have my opinion that we have a real problem.
I'm able to see individual people including politicians as good and admirable people while disagreeing with their policies and beliefs. I have a big problem with people that lie or manipulate data to sell their ideas. And I have a huge issue with people who advocate torture or denial of basic human rights. We sometimes disagree on what constitutes a human right.
It is possible that I will never find another human that agrees with me on every single issue, so as a social person I have to keep communication open. (until they all see the wisdom of my beliefs)

Em just walked up to Joe, pushing buttons on his old cell phone, and said, "Dude. I totally just texted you."
