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

I had this weird (but tasty) Japanese salsa thing, with strips of crunchy tuna skin, and a tonne of diced tomato, lemon garnish, and some green thing.s I've no idea what it's called, but nice...And I finally found an ever closer Japanese restaurant. Hmm. Possibly bad mojo comes with.

Popping my head in to say: Strix, your info is still up in this post: Strix "Natter 70: Hookers and Blow" Jun 1, 2012 8:45:13 am PDT Maybe a Stompy should edit it?

Now I want chips and salsa for dinner.

Mmmm, chips and salsa. Yes, please.

Since when I ranted about this on Tumblr yesterday, it started a mini-flame war, I'll complain about it here: WTF is with the vintage sellers on Etsy who are keyword spamming with "Gothic" AND "Grunge"? No. Do not mix those things, dammit. Grrrr.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Now she just needs a better story to explain the splint

When my foot was injured I was fond of the short, sometimes nonsensical answers (piranha, garbage disposal... ) and I never used the same one twice.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It was practically like eating a corn and tomato salad, really.

Ah ha ha ha! People.

Although I have been thinking about if I should throw random keywords on the stuff I'm going to list on eBay. One dress I definitely wore for NYE 2000, so can I call it "vintage"?? And it's black, so "Goth"????

Also steampunk.

I have been moderately productive today: paid my mortgage, went to the gym, went to BevMo to stock up on wine, went to TJ's, started laundry, took a nap.

Now I really should paint the back step. Or laze around. But tomorrow is my all-day play on Angel Island, so today I have do things.

Also, my sister doesn't want to go see Snow White with me. Hmm.

Y'know, that doesn't annoy me as much as the Grunge thing. Because even though some Steampunks don't like to admit it (I'm looking at you, Abney Park), a lot of the Steampunk subculture was lifted from Victorian Goth. We're cousins.

But Grunge? No. I do not want flannel shirts and ripped denim shorts with my silver ankhs and black lace, thanks.

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

Also, my sister doesn't want to go see Snow White with me. Hmm.

Bother.

I have plans to finally see Avengers for the first time tomorrow. For the first time.

It's 74 inside my place. The heck? I turned the fan on.

About an hour ago, I though there was a window and got all ready and it started going crackers out there. It hadn't been on the radar 5 minutes before. I don't think we've had a downpour like that since Irene.

So I started a load of laundry and shredded all bills older than January and filed everything. Good, because I discovered I had misplaced my AAA renewal and would have forgotten it otherwise.
