Well their building codes are fucking remarkable. Entire houses floating around the ocean with people and dogs alive in and on them for weeks?!?! Sheesh.
I guess just cross our fingers that there isn't another wave.
Just tryin' a little spicy talk.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[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.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
How long does a tsunami warning last after a quake?

Thanks Erin and DJ for the art supply links. I'm trolling around them right now.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
NHK says the tsunami warnings were lifted 12 minutes ago. Here's the relevant earthquake map. The epicenter is much closer to land than the Tohoku quake.

This is why I am so obsessed with the pencils, they give me the opportunity to do things like this...my first mandala.
Is it weird to say I love it? I sort of can't take my eyes off of it.

I know, right?
I give it a lot of thought as I'm planning, but while I'm doing it, it's hugely meditative. And when I'm done, the finished product just gives me a rush.
I can't think of a hobby, besides my dog, that has given me as much good stuff!

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.
That's gorgeous! It makes me want to do one of my own.... I'll be right back, see if I can find my decent pencils....

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Colouring with pencils scares me.
Well, colouring scares me. I just don't get it. I'm a monochrome sort of a girl.
I know it when I see it--that's really lovely, bonnie. But boy, does my brain ever curl up and die when I try it.

Found my pencils, and found a page of free mandala coloring pages - printed up a few, will take to work with me, see if any of the individuals there would like to try their hands at them, too.
