My condolences to your sister, smonster. Losing even a frenemy at so young an age is difficult.
I like pancakes 'cause they're stackable. Ooo, and waffles 'cause you can put things in the little holes if you wanted to.

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.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Happy birthday, Beth!
Shir, that's fantastic! Your project sounds fascinating and challenging. Will we ever get to see the results of it?

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
Shir, that sounds amazing! Looking forward to hearing about how you approach that.
smonster, that's really sad.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Happy birthday, beth!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Looks like I'm off to see Frankie on my own. What's up with all my local friends having lives and stuff?

Our wings are not tired.
Good luck, Smonster!

Hmph! I wanted to get a pedicure, mostly for the massage chair, but the place is not open even though they're supposed to be!

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Birthday Happies, Beth!

Will we ever get to see the results of it?
That, I think, will depend on how supportive my lecturers will be. Last year was dedicated to a partial historiographical analysis of the 19th century and how come a very specific type of camera has been developed, and what for (governments totally had a key role in it). Then I began question the notion of clear representation, or: picture as proof (there are 4 barriers the conscious have to cross to accept photograph as real. That's a lot. I also question Barthes' "studium" and "ponctum", for if it is right, National Geographic would have failed miserably).
Walter Benjamin said that the future's illiterate will be the one who can't "read" pictures. These days, after reading all of that literature about photography and modernism, when I look at the pictures and going "WTF this has to do with that?" 90% of the time, I fear of becoming one.
I won't bore you with more details, but once again, unaware human behavior and justification doesn't fail.
ION, it's now officially Memorial Day. RIP, guys and gals. May my country have the guts to strive for peace, and stop sacrificing your lives upon it's past traumas.

The status is NOT quo.
Happiest of Birthdays, Beth!
Smonster, good luck on your doggie visit!
I love my animals but am ready to kill Byron, my elder cat, who has decided to start peeing on Zoe's dog bed again. I JUST washed it last night and woke up to the lovely odor yet again this morning. Feh!
