It was actually stumbling on this incredible LJ post that crystallized just how fucking nuts the last place was and how badly I needed to be somewhere else.

Wow, that post is amazing. I could barely read it.

So Nadal-Federer or Federer-Murray, either one works for me.

Ooo, I'd like to watch that too. OK. Bit envious.

Calli's post reminds me: Kat, I tried to donate to your cause but I'm hitting some weird loop on the Donors Choose site where they keep not quite confirming my donation. I'm gonna check it later. Either it didn't work, in case I'll donate later, or else I donated about 5 times in a row. Ooops.

I wanted to be a princess who explored magical forests and fought dragons. So I'd wear my girliest dresses into a nearby swamp area and poke at things with sticks.

In my case, it was explored magical forests, kept dragons for pets, and was a VAMPIRE WITCH PRINCESS, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. Yes, I did recruit the neighbor kids as minions. And they went along with it.

And what I need is a nice clean, nearly neutral, more opaque than transparent, light pink. Does Zoya have one of those you'd recommend?

Maybe Jessika.

They offer color spoons and the $.50 that each spoon costs also counts as a credit for buying polish or more spoons. Thus you can swatch it against your actual skin.

I don't think I ever really had a princess phase. I guess the closest I got was My Little Ponies and Rainbow Brite.

I am so sick of the cold. At least if there were a lot of snow, it would be pretty and I could make a snowman. Instead, there's the same three inches or so of snow that's getting filthy and won't melt. Also, my car is just crusted in salt.

Ha ha ha. We have a shitload of snow getting filthy and not melting. And then when it snows again (on Wednesday??) there's nowhere to put it. You could have enjoyed making a snowman last week, though, yes.

I am again grateful that I don't have to drive or shovel.

Amused at the fact that I am more corruptible than JZ. I already knew what DP was. I'm pretty sure it's all y'alls fault somehow.

I didn't know that one. I'm...actually a little ashamed. Try harder, kinky person!

I can deal with subzero temperatures if they come with snow. Subzero temperatures and no snow except the stuff that's been there for weeks is ugh. Also, every room I teach in is a different temperature, so I've got to keep adding and subtracting layers throughout the day.

DP is totally less outré than CBT! You surprise me doubly!
