You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Is he eating dead Democrats?

No, he likes them raw and wrrrriggling.

But he'll only eat them for dinner.

A crazy ex-friend from high school has friended me on Facebook. This is way worse than when my mom joined. At least my mom never had delusions of grandeur, claimed to be in the X-Men, and then tried to make out with me.

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

Hey, shrift, your friend who was posting China beach hasn't posted any in about a month, even though she was going to post once a week. Is she okay?

You didn't accept, did you? That seems like a bad idea.

She's been having a pretty tough time. Her first "hey, you've been diagnosed with cancer!" anniversary is next week.

You didn't accept, did you?

Ahahahahaha. No.

what have UK women been doing musically?

Are you familiar with Girls Aloud?

They are horrifying and yet oddly fascinating as pop culture. Um, to me anyway.

(Seriously, if anyone can explain "The Show" to me, I'd be grateful.)

Ugh. I'm sorry to hear that.

Fuck cancer

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Bit of a meara here:

Oh, HAR - Anathema/Schmoker? ALL SUELA'S FAULT. Here's what she said when mieske tried to re-register under a billion variant spellings:

OK, that's just too much. Also, he's being stupid. If he really wanted to ruffle our feathers he'd change his name to something else entirely and sneak in under the radar.

HAH! I guess you're right, Jessica. Damn me and my thinky ways.

I used to post a lot in B'cy. Back in the days before webmonitoring.

The only ish was every so often she insisted on making liver and onions and telling us to eat it, and we'd take a couple of bites and spit it out on the plate in disgust. All 4 of us.

Oh, us too. In fact, my mother would make liver with bacon and onions, which tarnished the wonderful smell of bacon for me. If I smelled bacon in the evenings, that meant we would be forced to eat liver for dinner. And those days? There would be a lemon meringue pie waiting for us if we finished our liver. It was the one meal that the dog was locked out of the house for. At least once my middle brother snuck tiny pieces into his socks and emptied them under his bed, where they fossilized.

When I was cleaning out the office this week, I found a box of blank VHS stock. I tried to give it away to one of the other production departments and they all laughed.

There's a company called Greendisk that recycles all that for you. I just sent them two big boxes of cassette tapes. It felt like getting rid of my 20s. But I never listened to any of it anymore and it was just taking up space.

So there's a game plan, and a plan B, and it's all on my terms, and I feel like awesomecake with awesomesauce.

Excellent, Allyson! I hope it turns out fabulously.

What are people doing this weekend?

Tonight I am home, being sick and printing out my taxes. Tomorrow I am being sick, and taking tickets at the theater. Sunday I am (probably) being sick, and maybe making dinner for my folks. This sick thing is getting really old.
