Backstroke totally kills my arms. But I think it's just different muscles that I generally don't use enough...Breaststroke takes too long.
Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

One nice thing happened today. I got an unexpected bonus.
And tomorrow, my CSA haul is going to be: broccoli, zucchini, lettuce, arugula, spinach, radishes, scallions, basil, oregano, avocadoes, lemons/limes, Fuji apples, Valencia oranges, apricots, strawberries, yellow nectarines, and raspberries.

so jealous. I just won't eat an entire CSA. Aside from being one person, I'm not home a lot.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The most adorable guy talked to me tonight. Oh, my god. I'm in the concession line at the theatre, wearing my Green Lantern t-shirt, and the guy sweeping the floor strikes up a conversation with me about comic book T-shirts. His collection rivals mine.
But he was so nervous! You could tell he didn't make a habit of talking to strange women, but the sheer dorkness of my shirt made it impossible for him not to say anything.
So darling.

Hah--at the bar tonight, the super hot bartender was having a whole geektastic convo with someone about various comic book types, who would win in a fight. When I walked up they were on joker vs various but by the time I walked away they'd moved to people I'd never heard of, and were telling ne to burn any copies I found of Highlander 2 or 3. Um, ok?

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
I'm pretty sure the guy who runs the desk at my podiatrist's office is sweet on me. He seemed disappointed that he won't see me until September.
I'm also pretty sure that he's about 25.

This kid couldn't have been 20. 6'3 and 150 pounds and all ADORBS. So excited about his T-shirts. And, since I am still about mine, it was a moment of aptness.

The only parts of Highlander 2 worth considering are with Sean Connery. "Well, I am the oldest gentleman in Scotland . . ." And, of course, comparing bullet holes.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.
There were other parts of that movie?
