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

It sounds like a message from 2002. Nobody says those things anymore. WAP is obsolete.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I vote for both obsolete and dirty.

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

If I could play hooky today, I would spend the day watching Avengers and eating sushi.

Instead, I have to go to work and pretend I want to be there.

Stupid Monday.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am at the office, barely pretending. Luckily, the ~10 minutes of work I've done so far were in discussion with other people, so it possibly seems like maybe I'm doing anything?

Maybe I'll do some stupid database updating.

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

I need to talk about the dream I had last night, because it's weirding me the fuck out. I dreamed that my friend Melisa, who died 18 years ago, was hanging out with me. I was happy to see her again, as I always am when she shows up in my dreams. (She hasn't for many years.) A mysterious shadowy other woman was there; she wasn't named and never spoke. It was understood that M. was in fact still dead, and we were working out how she could be reincarnated* to be with us again. Then our boyfriend M.L. (in RL) was there with us, and we buying some big warehouse/meeting hall where we would live and also set up an auction house to support ourselves. We were talking to a real estate agent who was showing us a map of where we were and how to get around, and she was taking our IDs and giving us new IDs for the state we were moving to. This happened three times, and I was aware that the same thing was happening over and over, with slight differences (once I couldn't find my ID, and once my ID was from Georgia.), and I knew that this was somehow necessary to bring timelines together and make it possible for M. to be with us again. Then the agent gave us a brochure showing who M. would be this time, a cute little girl with curly red hair (the child M. once dreamed she would have). That's all I remember. Usualy when I get a dream that "feels significant", I can figure out what it means. But this, I have no idea, and I can't shake the feeling it means something. I haven't dreamed about Melisa for many years. The idea of trying to bring her back into my life (not literally!) disturbs me a bit.

*I believe in reincarnation.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Thanks, Nilly! I hope motherhood is treating you well!

Because books.

Happy birthday, Glamcookie. I hope it's excellent.

Zen, maybe it just means that you miss her? Or that you're looking for some kind of change in your life?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

If I could play hooky today, I would spend the day watching Avengers and eating sushi.

Me, too! And re-watch last night's Sherlock. Get over here and we'll do it! I'm sure my boss doesn't really want this horrifyingly late issue of the journal to go to the printer today.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Me three!!

Zen, I've had a bunch of dreams lately that left an aftertaste in my brain. It's unsettling, to say the least.

Happy birthday, Glamcookie!
