Draculaura! For my birthday this past year, my Mom & Dad gave me her & Frankie Stein. Because nothing says We accept who you turned out to be like buying tiny goth dolls for your 42 year old daughter.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I think that's awesome; I'd never seen them before.

Ok, time to stop looking at garden stuff and go to bed.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

You deserve some relaxation and pampering, Jilli.

The comments on a friend's photo have turned into a search for the perfect mustachioed cyclops emoticon. It's making my day.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I'm glad there was wonderful along with the difficult, Jilli. And mani and pedi sound wonderfully, restoratively pampering. And more Cass time is always a plus.

As I've been stuck on the couch elevating my foot, I've actually uploaded (some of) the months' worth of photos we've taken. New stuff about the house starts here.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

OMG, I totally nightmared myself up. And it all had to do with a guy in a lab that wouldn't stop laughing and a light I couldn't switch off. CREEPY.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I woke up full of GRONK but determined to get started on my program project (due next Thursday). Of course, my desktop computer started crapping out almost immediately. And now I'm crossing my fingers as it goes through yet another CHKDSK, hoping that it will actually boot at least enough to make a copy of all the programming work I did yesterday. Bonus points if it's workable enough that I can do more.

Hivemind, does anyone know -- I got married in April 2010. Do I file jointly with Dan for 2010, or do I have to wait until 2011?

According to the NYT, castles can be had for bargain prices. Shall we chip in for Fortress Buffista? [link]

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

You can file jointly for 2010 because you were married for over half the year, Erin. I am, like, 75% sure. There's an 800 number you can call to confirm.

Considering I didn't know that we had a String WIngds Advisory until my door broke, tidying the yard up this morning was quite painless. Yay.

Eta: we could probably manage with a starter castle if we had to.

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

I should probably get dressed and go to Target and Trader Joes before I start Watching Empire records, shouldn't I?
