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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Speaking of cursing, I did a little a capella rendition of "Fuck You" for my parents over dinner. Good times!

Aw, awesome. Maybe tomorrow night I will have some. While being snowed on.

For the record, I have 2 ice scrapers, 2 snow shovels, a couple brooms for both leaf and snow duty and a little broom to do minor crap on the windows.

I don't want snow. It's expected just enough to be messy but still require venturing out in it.

So, I started this (mostly culture) blog awhile back and a few fellow neighborhood bloggers found it pretty quickly and now one has just invited me to a thing (a preview of Philip Glass's Orphée) where I could meet some other bloggers I read. I'm flattered, excited, and a little creeped out. I mean, this is an invisible Internet person! So, invisible Internet people, should I accept?

You should! Boldly go where other axe murder victims bold go-ers see opera with strangers!

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Yeah, but bloggers are a different kind of invisible person.

How crazy can they be listening to Philip Glass?

Er....

I should note, these are all opera and classical music fans that live in my neighborhood (which is close to the opera house and the symphony hall). The Philip Glass thing, I don't know, but I would love to see an adaptation of Orphée. They are pretty cliquey so I have an it's-an-honor-just-to-be-nominated sort of feeling. Plus, I meet no one new. But then there's that axe-murderer feeling buried down deep.

It's not the kind of crazy that leads to axe murdering. At least not yet....

Because books.

But they probably wouldn't murder you *at* the opera, megan. So there's that!
