I go online sometimes, but everyone's spelling is really bad. It's... depressing.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I think watching meteors is a hell of a way to ring in a new decade. Or a Tuesday. I love meteor showers. Haven't seen a good one in ages.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

You all need to come to my patch of the desert! I HAZ ALL THE STARS! I'm pretty sure I've mentioned how you all need to come out and visit me, and if I have to pimp out the cosmos to get you here, I'm not afraid to do it!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Liese, I would like to book a trip to your destination.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

nd gestures at a younger, greener black comedian sitting at the edge of the room (I wish I could remember his name--I'm shamed that I don't) I'm sure he has time for you. And as I was leaving to go talk to the guy with the Muslim name I CAN'T REMEMBER, I ask Tommy--"I'm here every summer. I've never seen you at the festival before. What are you usually doing?"

Saleem Muhammad? Big guy? If so, Joe has been friends with him forever, and I nearly insulted him very seriously.

I HAZ ALL THE STARS!

I need to email you. Which, actually, I just did.

I love having all of the stars.

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

No, he's a tiny guy, actually, and was reading a book at the party. Shorter than me, my skin tone, hair longer I think, My brain wants to call him Suleimans,

And my brain clearly clearly wants to sleep, so I'm going to let it have its way before it gets me in trouble. It just tried again...See you on the flip side, in the ER!

Yes, that's him! He was marvellous! Really sweet and quiet and so intelligent, and very "yeah, he's like that" about Tommy.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I don't know who Tommy Davidson is (really not my kind of movie, definitely) but anyone who doesn't value ita ! on sight is kind of dumb.

I had a real "only at Readercon" moment yesterday -- I went in a little late to a panel retrospect on Chip Delany's work, sat down at an aisle seat about halfway back in the room, got my knitting project organized, started to enjoy the discussion -- then I got around to looking around the audience.

Chip was seated directly across the aisle from me.
