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.

Ooh, in a call-back to an earlier discussion, here's someone arguing for GSM -- gender and sexual minority -- as the term that can include homoromantic asexuals (edit: I MEAN HETERO-), because (this person says) queer does NOT. [link]

Thanks for all the birthday wishes. I am having a lovely relaxing day so far.

Today is Wear An Insect day, BTW.

I found a spider on my shoulder earlier, does that count?

Happy birthday, Sue! What are you going to feed yourself on this vacation/birthday?

I travelled all the way across the harbour today to have a pain au chocolat the size of my head and a great latte. [link]

It's all I've had so far today and I''m seeing two movies tonight, so I better make something for supper.

Nilly, you have the happiest baby ever. So adorable.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Happy Birthday, Amy!

Happy Birthday, Sue!

Hey DC locals - my mom fell biking and broke her arm. I'd like to send her some fabulous comfort food she can eat with one hand. Any recs for catering type places that might do this?

We're fans of Jason's Deli, which delivers. But the closest they have to Chevy Chase is in College Park.

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

Jesse, I agree with that tumblr person. How refreshing.

I think amber is A+ insectifying. Dana totally wins.

Grilled cheese sandwich with avocado and tomatoes. Pretty tasty. Getting in the way of typing, though.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm currently working from home, aka watching last night's H50.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Sent baby-of-nilly pics to Tim. He says awwww.

Ooh. I've been meaning to try the new-ish grilled cheese place by me, and might tonight, but they apparently don't have avocado on the menu!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Nilly baby!!!

I haven't adjusted my sleep schedule for school yet. Ugh. It's bad. I'm getting 6 hours a night, which is not enough, and that's mostly because I don't go to bed until 11. Bad!

Hey, it's okay if I buy it on my Nook, right, Amy?

Tons of ~ma, Hayden. So sorry about the house, but I'm glad to hear about the interview! I hope things work out on the job front.

How's your leg, btw? I get back from France mid-October. If you're feeling well enough, we should try for some kind of NC-ista mini-F2F.
