The people in the alleyway are chanting. I can't understand the words, but the rhythm sounds like one of those chants in horror movies that are supposed to do some fun seance stuff and end up raising evil spirits.

Does your window open enough for a bucket of water?

Hey Cass - I sent you email last night. You get?

Nope.

::checks mail::

Yes!

Also, the next person who informs me that the best way to advocate for veganism is to be a model of good health is going to get smacked with a crutch.

The best way to advocate for anything is to NOT BE AN ASSHOLE. Oh wait.

I know a number of people who should have this tattoed backwards on their foreheads.

Erin, forgot to mention this earlier (damn you people talk a lot) - your wedding dress is gorgeous, and I hope we get to see pictures. You're getting married in three days!

Aims, do I have to cut a bitch? That's utter bullshit, and the realtor should eat the cost of her mistake.

Hil, break it down into small pieces. Cass is right. Don't borrow trouble if you don't have to, but Trudy has an idea. Borrow a bucket and after you've filled it up with water, accidently tip it out the window and watch them chant a different tune.

I should not be up, but I'm chatting with current long distance crush. I just read a memo he wrote on quantifying blight using GIS technology and nearly swooned. Spicy social justice brains. Trying to talk him into moving to NOLA with me so we can start a deconstruction job training program.

sweet. my crush killed the thread. i think this is becoming a habit.

I am still awake smonster! Just off reading the rest of the internet. It's only 7:30PM here! I'm trying to decide how late I should stay up, vs. how much I should try NOT to get used to the time change. I should go to bed early...but HOW early?

I am so sunburnt...and when my back starts peeling eventually, it's going to be grosssss, because it's the spots i can't reach!! (Which is why it got sunburnt in the first place...). And darnit, they only sell aloe in larger than three ounce sizes. Sunscreen they sell small sizes of, aloe, NSM.

My non-really-subconsciously subconscious, let me share it with you:

I had a dream tonight about Datee, and how I can't tell him I don't want any romantic relationship to do with him, because on the first date he asked me to do this favor for him, and that favor was to get married (which didn't seemed like a big deal at the time, but a 5 minute bureaucratic thing). So I had all of the "I feel bad for doing this" guilt emotions with the "wait. I didn't think it through, did I?" notion in my dream. With guest appearance via dozens of text messages by former-best-friend-this-days-Scientologist-that's-flooding-my-emailbox which offered "support".

My brain hates me sometimes.

Sunscreen they sell small sizes of, aloe, NSM.

I had that problem in New Orleans. Fortunately, it was the last day, so I just sucked it up until I got home.

Wow, Shir. That's just... wow.

It's only 7:30PM here! I'm trying to decide how late I should stay up, vs. how much I should try NOT to get used to the time change. I should go to bed early...but HOW early?

Why do I constantly think Hawaii is just an hour earlier than West Coast? It's THREE? No wonder I get up happily at 6:30 there.

Man, I miss Hawaii right now. Or my last hotel room there. Maybe I just miss that.

I'd like to go back to Hawaii too. Kristin, can we go back to Hawaii?
