This week was long.
AGREED. I think it was made worse by the knowledge that I worked a full day on Sunday AND that instead of 3 furlough days before Thanksgiving, there will be none.
That, of course, is good for the wallet but bad for the psyche.
Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Kat, I wish you had more time to decompress.
Amy, I have S1-3 of the SPN dvd's but have yet to watch them. I still think of him as Eric Brady (Days of Our Lives).

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore
I have fleece-lined tights! I am not going to wear them under shorts, though, because that is WRONG. I am going to wear them under a dress so I will be warm at the vintage warehouse in Philadelphia tomorrow.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have been seeing a lot of dark bras under light tops in a way that must have been deliberate. I don;'t know how else to characterise it. I used to use the deliberately showing bra strap, but it was always a pretty bra strap-- a really nice colour or pattern or something. But not showing underneath. That is messy.

Because books.

Oh, yay! (Almost) one of us! And JA is so much better-looking now. SO much. (And that's starting where he did, so.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
My mom would always ask me if I was aware that I was going out in public IN MY UNDERWEAR.
I was just talking about how in college I'd go out for breakfast in a sweatshirt and boxer shorts. Seriously??
Don't even get me started on my work shorts from the 90s.
Like Jesse,I have wine,
....and that was Jess. I was out! Drinking beer!

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

Not because of the size, but because of the taste.
Oh yeah, I know it. I chase them with lots of juice. Followed by something else like tea or a shot of scotch. Wait, did I admit that? Not in the morning, of course. But really, they are ghastly.
I've got Loki and MK curled up with me. I keep dragging Pumpkin downstairs, but she keeps returning to her chair upstairs. Does she not know this is all she gets of me for almost a week? Uh, yeah, no. She doesn't. She hasn't learned the bag-signs.
Kat, please offload things on to me.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Oh yeah, I totally wore bright colored tights under shorts and thought I looked SO AWESOME. In 1992. When I was 12. I also had a purple hat that I thought made me look like Blossom, which was also clearly the height of cool. It was only later that I graduated to wearing pajamas and vintage prom gowns to school.
ION, I just fixed my computer! I love when I can fix stuff by myself. Thanks, Google. Also, I saw the new Pedro Almodovar movie tonight, and whoa. Will have to sit with that one for a while.

Oh, and Perkins? WOOOHOO! May you have the whirlwind I did and land in a place you fucking love to pieces. (My next door neighbor is taking care of the cats. 5 others are emergency backups. I fucking LOVE my neighborhood.)
