Now I wish we knew this woman's story - it'd be fascinating....
Considering Vikings' usual practice, odds are she was taken back as a slave and spent the rest of her probably short life with a thrall-ring forged around her neck.
I'm so sorry, Dana.
Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I just had some delicious tomato-corn soup for dinner, but man that stuff looked gross if you think about it too hard.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
OMG, finally done for the day. Had a party for the drama team to celebrate a successful contest last week, and it was fun. But combine being sick most of the week with kids excessively squirrely because they have next week off, and I am pooped.
And, I need to get unpooped! I'm seeing HP with Kathy tonight!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I did not take enough notes during the 1hr 45min meeting. So now I need to sit down with my boss and get more info. Oy. Eyes crossed.

I actually had a really productive day and tackled a work project I've been stressing about and it took some doing but was really so much less onerous than avoiding it for the past three days has been. (Today I was up against a deadline and had no choice.) Knocked some other to-dos off and then skated out of work an hour early.
Have fun, Kathys!

Emmett and I are going tonight!
I went to pick him up at school and I saw a girl go by in a witch outfit and thought, "Huh. Little late for Halloween." Then I saw another girl go by wearing a class-tie and realized, "Ahhhhh...." they're all dressed up for Harry Potter tonight.
