I love all y'all.
erin, even if your sister does not have the presence of mind to be grateful, I am thankful that someone has her back.
Pix, I can mutter imprecations against a person who so upsets you (and is wrong like Baby Jesus/Papa Smurf slash) but it won't fix a darn thing. I'm glad you have decided to preserve your own sanity. That is a precious commodity.
Shir, you are awesome and kick-ass and I want to be just like you when I grow up.
In fun but not nearly as awesome news, yesterday a friend from amongst The Mentalist fans asked me to help her write a review for this week's episode. I may or may not have used the term "doblerize" in the bits I sent her.
Does anyone here have an account on Eat Your Books?
I just signed up for an account.
I wonder how much Prop 8's passage can be attributed to people in California going, "Oh, Obama's got this, I don't have to vote" versus the fanatics going "Must stop the gayz from marrying! Must go vote!"
I don't think there were people counting on Obama to change DOMA. I think there were a lot of people open to the argument that (pardon my paraphrase here, and no I don't espouse the view) gays don't deserve special treatment, and changing the law to allow them to marry is special treatment.
I know of at least one young woman who voted for prop 8 and then a few weeks later was out protesting its passage. I know her logic for both choices had its own complex realities, but it was also a bit of a head scratcher.
So I have to go identify my husband today, and I can't even motivate myself to get in the shower. I have to gather up the pictures for the service and get his flight helmet and goalie mask. Needless to say I don't want to.
I had a heck of a time getting out of bed this morning, and my day is nowhere near as onerous.
{{{Maria}}} Is there anyone that can go with you?
Oh sweetheart. I'm so sorry.
Needless to say I don't want to.
Right. Just zombie shuffle your way through, if you can. Just take the shower. A little forward momentum will carry you a long way through the day.
It's one of those shitty deals where the only way to the other side is through it.
Love you, Maria. If it helps, picture your invisible friends hovering around you as you make it through the day. But not in the shower, because that would be creepy.
Oh Maria! What an awful duty, is there someone who can come with you?
If it helps, you can picture all of us buffistae there with you and holding you up and giving you our strength.
