Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I had considered going to the concert last night, but didn't buy tickets since it was so close to post-surgery and I was afraid I'd fall asleep with my pain meds. Anyway, the selfish part of me is glad I didn't go. Even so, I keep picturing my friend and the chaos that must have happened. Much of the audience is made up of senior citizens and I'm kinda worried about some of their hearts. I just want to wrap Lisa up and make it better, but it is never that easy.

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

I have just decided on Bob Marley's Rastaman chant, pretty much because of the repeated lyric:

One bright morning when my work is over,
I will fly away home.

That'll do, pig, that'll do.

Since I didn't save the world a lot.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I have no objection to "Amazing Grace," but I'd like "Morning Has Broken" played at my service.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

One bright morning when my work is over,
I will fly away home.

That's what I said! Lyrically.

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

Oh, I want Amazing Grace, full bagpipe. Because I am that cliche'. My mom, though? Like Ginger's with Nearer My God, hated Amazing Grace, and did threaten to haunt me if I allowed it at her funeral. Which...she haunted me enough while she was here, I didn't want to risk it.

Dad was all How Great Thou Art, so that's what he got.

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

If you're asking, I want "I Can See Clearly Now" at my service. But y'all have given me some great ideas. Although really not planning on dying any time soon.

Because books.

Oh, "I'll Fly Away" is great, too. I just put it on, actually!

I think I'd only want "Will the Circle Be Unbroken" if June Carter Cash could sing it, though.

The status is NOT quo.

ita !, I meant to tell you that my Jamaican student is related to Patterson. I asked her the other day.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

OMG people, no one can die. lalalalalala I cannot here you. imaginary people in the box live forever and that is that.

I plan on flash mobbing anyone's service on here who dares leave. There might be songs from OMWF, there might also be loud reciting from the random quote generator.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'd like "This Is My Song," but the UU version without the dominion-y bits. (This without the last verse.)

I went to the gym and picked up a new card so I have one less excuse to not work out. Then I decided that was as close to exercise as I was going to get today and got a pedicure.
