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.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Kathy makes me want to have a cleaning day.

Giving notice today might be rough, the boss has already had 2 fuck-ups to deal with this morning. Oh well, really not my problem, I will offer a full 2 weeks and even try to find a replacement.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, fuck your boss, msbelle. Not literally.

OK, one person from my department went to the training, and I think two other people have at least seen the Ribbon. I feel fine now.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay, msbelle!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

ginger ale people:

how would you rank the list posted above?

Of the 13 they have listed, I have only consumed 4 of them and Vernor's would be dead last every time. Sprecher's - I have had their root beer and I was not impressed, so I wouldn't try their ginger ale unless I lost a dare.

Boylan's is actually pretty good. I like Canada Dry (but I grew up on that brand). Seagram's is good in a pinch.

A perfectly clean bedroom, five hours later.

OMG, five hours of cleaning. I can't even.

Note to self: need to get housecleaners in on a regular basis.

OMG, five hours of cleaning. I can't even.

If I cleaned at this level more often than every few years, it wouldn't take me five hours to clean one room. I'm hoping that if I do a decent-enough purge, it shouldn't take me this long again until I move.

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

Yay, msbelle!
