Rousing her to slip her into PJs has resulted in a storm of sobbing, so I'm off for the time being.
Did she call you a polar bear?
Who died and made you Elvis?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Did she call you a polar bear?
She didn't call us anything. She just, rather sadly, said it was hard to calm down.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
your example probably isn't the right one for the Penn State situation
I think the idea that "well, no one's making a big deal of it, so I won't make a big deal of it" seems to apply here as well, is all.
Did I mention my mother went out today? She went out today! She's not driving herself yet, but she made them take her grocery shopping. God, my mother is so much the best one of the four of us. This is...hard.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Glad she got out, ita!
I used some of OPI's shattered polish and I think the jury's still out on it.
I watched a lot of roller derby today. The WFTDA championships are streaming online all weekend and it's a great time to catch some seriously good bouts.

Planned Parenthood and their "cover up of child sex abuse."
What the what? I don't even.
YAY ChiKat! That's so awesome.
Interesting keeping up with the PSU thing over here in the UK. It's not like I've been watching the news or anything, but it's usually on at the pub. Mostly concerned with Berlisconi getting kicked out as part as EU austerity measures. Also Remembrance Day which is huge over here. (the 11th hour of the llth day of the 11th month...)
Anyway, glad to have y'all and Scalzi around to keep me up to date on all this stuff.

An article and photos from the vigil last night. I don't know how many people were there, but I've seen estimates as high as 10,000. [link]

Oh yay, ChiKat! Buffista writers are a dime a dozen, but I don't think we have many Buffista playwrights!!!1!
