"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

That does not sound pleasant, msbelle.

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

I will be submitting for my FSA reimbursements (why is my February 2011 flex card spending taken out of my 2010 money? I'm so confused. Ah, well.) I will be learning new things about computer graphics. I will be sleeping. And hopefully not watching the rain.

Always Anti-fascist!

I still use my Lj. On Dreamwidth I mostly make comments, but I love them because my family does not know about them.(although I'm sure all my cousins need to know who I fancy this week.) Also, statuses are too short, and "Unlike" is not a real word, damn it.

It's totally a word. I suspect you mean it's not a verb.

You're right...I didn't think about "Unlike all her sisters, she was blonde." That is a word. But you can't really un-like something. Sometimes that really irritates me.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

But you can't really un-like something. Sometimes that really irritates me.

How about, "These porcelain bunnies were all alike, but I unliked one by breaking its ears off."?

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

It's a good thing I clicked the link, Plei. I couldn't think of anyone other than him, and he doesn't fit that description.

Best outcome, msbelle.

Zen, I'm so sorry about your noise. And the trees. One of the reasons we moved is every day I'd drive by tracts of forest that had been bulldozed for another "business park" of an ugly building on acres of expensive to maintain lawn, or a 7-to-an-acre development of ugly million dollar houses, or yet another strip mall, while four w/in a five mile radius couldn't keep their spaces rented, or the grass from growing in the cracks in the sidewalk and parking lot.

I hate these people too. Logging is an industry here. But I don't know these trees (yes, I am secretly not unlike an Ent).

Woo hoo! Vampire Ball eye candy!

We are about to have a non-confidence vote in parliament. Which means (almost 100%) an election.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Bleh, msbelle. Good luck.

Sue, I'm still kind of boggled about how other places don't actually have the national elections just scheduled on a regular basis. It seems stressful! Except for the shorter campaign period, which sounds awesome.

Well, in Canada, it doesn't happen all that often. I think the last time was in the late 1970's, or early 1980's. First, there has to be a minority gov't, and even when a minority gov't is elected, they usually make deals with another party to keep them in power.

BTW, the gov't just fell on a vote of non-confidence and was found in contempt of Parliament.

The shorter election times are great. They're saying this election will be either May 2 or 9. American politicians always seem to be campaigning for the next election. There have been a lot of campaign style political ads for the past month.
