Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

I love how excited you are about derby, Cash! I didn't realize that your league is just getting started. So cool!

Now tagless for your comfort.

I didn't realize that your league is just getting started. So cool!

Starting a league is a lot of work. But it's got me more excited than just joining a team. I love being back on skates.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

And you're someone who'll marry Eliot, I'm just... I dunno.

We've already determined that I'm crazy. *shrug* I likes what I likes.

Seriously, of all the FCM results, that one's largest in my mind? I just can't get over not marrying Hardison. Craxxy talk.

Sorry for causing you such cognitive dissonance! No, see, it's not that Hardison isn't All That and a Bag of Gummy Frogs, 'cause he is, it's just that he reminds me - physically - of my Psycho!Ex, and it just ain't happening. Though even without that little emotional impasse, I'd still take Eliot.

The Vatican continues to horrify me with its decisions. I cannot understand their, I don't know, priorities, I guess.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Shaq is still playing? He's my age (b. 1972)! I kinda thought that basketball players expired a lot younger than that.

Yeah, these are going to be his last two years, coming off the bench, retiring at 40.

Question for the hivemind:

If you were in (for example) a European train station or airport, and needed to go to the place where you provide dollars and receive euros, what would you call that place?

Because books.

A currency exchange counter, or something?

...I would probably call it "a money exchange place" because that's how bad my brain works these days.

I was just wondering if I had to add "office" to the following bit of dialogue: "Is there a currency exchange here in the station?" (It's ufficio cambio in Italian)

I would say "currency exchange." (Without having read your post!)
