I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Unless you're running, yes.

Or Sue Sylvester.

ita is secretly Sue Sylvester?!? It makes so much sense...

Perkins, YAY! Awesome milestone ... what's next?

Parent types, especially Jessica, have you all read Nutureshock? I just started it and it's great. Like Freakonomics but child development instead.

bonny, thanks. David was an extraordinary person.

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

Isn't Sue Sylvester evil?

I still think people should run in things that aren't track suits. But I will give you a pass if you're really fit.

Finish up the year of Herceptin (through October), and start hormone therapy--I have an appointment about that on Monday.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Congratulations, Perkins! A wonderful milestone.

I thought that was a given.

At least in Vegas.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

VEGAS!!!!

I think msbelle might be interested in yesterday's Ellen show, and the Paul Walker Cool Water commercial she showed. FYI.

I had a drink with my friend from work, and now I don't feel like doing all of my agenda items for the evening. At least I have to wrap my mother's birthday presents, but I doubt the bathroom or the clothes will get cleaned. Tomorrow night, I guess....

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Now I want to find shibari classes, but with none of that icky sex stuff.

I don't know about LA, but here in my fair conservative city, there's a rope group that meets once a month where it's just a demo/educational thing. One guy who has years of experience with shibari leads it, and the topic changes every month, like chest harnesses, or suspension, or whatever. He'll explain/demo it, and then the attendees can practice it. But people have to stay clothed, and there's definitely no icky sex stuff.
