Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Thrive to spite them

Penny was originally Bernice and I picked Penny from Big Bang Theory. I tried Faith, Buffy, Willow, Kaylee, and other fannish-y names and Penny seemed to work.

Dean was originally named Nalu. I named him Dean for Dean Winchester and he was very much like Dean Winchester - loved his food, hated to be away from his family, hunter. He just wasn't as robust.

Our wings are not tired.

Okay Lisa, I studied that dog and she said her name should be Cleo.

I said, "as in Cleopatra??"

She just shook her head and said Cleo.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

How about "Russet"?

Okay "Russet" totally has me calling her "Potato" which has turned into "Tater". Do you want a dog called "Tater"?? It's so cute! Cleo Tater.

AND NOW I WANT A PUPPY.

msbelle, is Bailey Miranda a permanent addition for y'all or is she still a foster?

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

I love that video of BO.

Oh shit. I made a tri tip and I cut a slice off. Without actually cutting into bite size pieces I bit into it and almost chocked. Badly. K then said I wasn't allowed to eat any more until she got home from hockey (whatever) because the kids can't dial 911 on the cell phones and they'll traumatized if I they have to sit in the house with my dead body.

I had to laugh at her.
