And I myself will be wearing pink taffeta as chenille would not go with my complexion.

Typing after bursting is pretty impressive.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Well, I'm a professional. Not everybody could do it.

So in the locker room tonight, there was a couple women talking basketball, I think one had been the younger's teacher or something. They clearly knew each other, but hadn't talked in a while. Anyway, turns out the younger is a Crystal who plays for the Washington Mystics. After googling, it has to be her: [link]

Anyway, it was a fascinating conversation to overhear. She seemed really amazed at the things she's been able to experience.

Oooh,my country. Watching Freedom Riders. It's infuriating.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The whole thing is so crazy and awful. I remembered my mother is out of town (in Nashville!), so I called my father to make sure he was OK. I said, Well, you know how the story ends -- we have a black president now!

(Obviously, he knows what all happened back then -- they were in VISTA in the south a few years later, and one of their friends lived in the black town outside Anniston, where the bus got burned out in 61.)

Your parents were a part of it?

And the story hasn't ended, really. All I have to do is read the comments on the local rag. Uhg.

Not this stuff, because I don't think they were down there until 66 or 67.

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

Why is there so little pubic hair in the naked pictures in tumblr? I'd say it's starting to creep me out, but I'm not exactly ready to imply I'm going to stop looking. I just...until reasonably recently I thought it was just a chick thing. I hadn't been paying full attention.

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