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

It is pretty sweet, smonster. People are leaking in for the day, and the food is about to show up.

I can't create sets from a tablet, but everything I've put up so far is tagged Avalon on flickr: www.flickr.com/photos/serenada/tags/avalon/

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It is gorgeous outside, but I was just singing (next to someone who can't read music AND doesn't have a good ear) and socializing for six hours and now I just need to watch TV for a while.

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

Well, it's 100 degrees outside. Guess it's time to walk a half mile to brunch, get drunk and walk back, right?!

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

I missed the chance to take Monday off of work before many many other people did, so I decided to treat today like my birthday. I am sure no one will be shocked to hear I started with going back to bed, and haved now moved on to too much sushi.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

so, I have been seeing PSAs for uterine cancer and the nice women in the ads ALWAYS say "I was diagnosed with uterine cancer, a type of gynecological cancer" -

1. why do they always add that phrase about "gynecological cancer?" Wouldn't people who understand "gynecological" also understand "uterine?"

2. If there is a worry about comprehension, why don't they say "cancer of the uterus" which is probably more easily understood than uterine cancer?

Clearly, I have thought too much about this.

I very much agree, Le Nubian, and had similar thoughts when I saw that. Also, wtf, why do we need these commercials??

Lee, sounds good! I woke up. Went back to sleep, and eventually got up and made eggs and sausage and coffee. Aspirin and coffee didn't help my headache, but muscle relaxer seems tentatively to be helping. Now to figure out what to do..,I should clean my room, I think.

Well bacon and beer sounds lovely to me. I think bacon on a turkey burger and a good beer together is delicious. Bacon flavor in beer just was disappointing. Not bacony enough and made the beer harsh and nasty. Then there wasn't enough maple. Which I realize is a me issue.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I went to a FRENCH BULLDOG PARTY today. There will be pictures, mais oui.

meara,

I think I can understand why they need the commercials. I think women too often ignore when they are feeling poorly and they should see a doctor.

granted, I wondering if such an ad like this would be more effective.
