No, the Sienna definitely is still in the running, so I appreciate everybody's input.
Be safe everybody.
Simon: I'm trying to put this as delicately as I can... How do I know you won't kill me in my sleep? Mal: You don't know me, son. So let me explain this to you once: If I ever kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I couldn't find ginger beer at my supermarket! So no Dark and Stormy for me. Instead, I tragically bought diet ginger ale. We'll see how it holds up to the rum.

call me jacki; zuisa is an internet nick from ancient times =)
There's never any food in my house, and an impending hurricane has not changed that, but we absolutely have liquor. And lots of it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I hope my mother got out of NY okay. She should be in Miami by now. This is so weird.
Today I've decided it's okay if I have cleavage. I think my hope is that distraction over my breasts will take my mind off how much my calves hurt. MOTHERFUCKER. Exercise sucks, especially stealth exercise, because I felt nothing while I was getting it.
Plans for today:
- pick up meds
- see movie
- wash car (I finally tidied it!)
- cut hair (it's very uncivilised)
- cry
- draw
I'm not sure about the order yet.

I am prepping for a birthday party that will include 9 8 year olds, arriving in 30 minutes. It occurs to me we don't actually have enough chairs. Luckily the plan is for them to watch a 2-hour movie, east cupcakes, and run around outside.
What is mr. flea doing? Well a delivery of lumber arrived an hour ago. Why yes, we have a 10x14 foot hole in our porch right now, so you can't actually come in the door.
Luckily, 8 year olds will probably think the hole is cool. I just hope nobody falls in it.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
One of my friends has "Hurricane party in the Hamptons!" as her facebook status. Staying in the Hamptons seems like a horribly bad idea right now.
And now that I look at her previous statuses, it's not that she got stuck out there. She was working yesterday, and then took the bus out to the Hamptons after work.

My friend is supposed to be having her high school reunion tonight out there -- she headed out yesterday, too.
I just hope nobody falls in it.
Good luck with everything! That sounds like an excellent party.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Ugh. I keep finding all these ways in which I failed as an adult this week, like not mailing in the rollover IRA paperwork, or not noticing until today that I am running out of tamoxifen pills, and that I am out of automatic refills, so I can't do anything about it until Monday.
I won't run out of pills as long as I do something about it on Monday, and the paperwork is not super time sensitive, but still, FAIL.

I hate stuff like that Perkins, but it's all easy mistakes to make. Forgive yourself, and then get it done on Monday.
