Zoe: Preacher, don't the Bible have some pretty specific things to say about killing? Book: Quite specific. It is, however, somewhat fuzzier on the subject of kneecaps.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So I never did shower, so I guess I'm still not going outside??

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Darn you Eastcoasters with your already-cocktail-hour time difference!

I have Franny all to myself this afternoon, so I ask her what she wants to do. She wants to play Minecraft. sigh. So much for mother-daughter bonding. Guess I'll go spend a GC at Sephora instead.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I have achieved half of a Bee's Knees, or reasonable approximation thereof. Tasty. Perhaps I should call it Eric.

I don't know if this is true, but I just saw on tumblr that someone at Fox News said that Chechens aren't caucasian. They are literally Caucasian!!

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

I think they are actually testing something other than trying to guess your age. Pattern recognition or something related to age and taking the offered breaks?

Why? Is there supporting evidence I can read? (I didn't take breaks--they annoy--but there were patterns? DOH)

the same sort of mythology for homeless children was used in a Mercedes Lackey book ... "Spirits White as Lightning" perhaps.

I will have to look that up. I am heartbroken and enchanted.

She wants to play Minecraft. sigh. So much for mother-daughter bonding

Hmmph. You could play Minecraft too.

someone at Fox News said that Chechens aren't caucasian. They are literally Caucasian!!

Der. They don't mean From Caucasus Caucasian. They mean Good Old American Caucasian. It's like you're not even from here...

Oh yeah "Regular American," I forgot.

If they actually used those words, that's pretty funny. In a sad way, but still.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
