Sometimes I miss having powers... Oh. Oh! I know what this is! This is peer pressure! Any second now you're gonna make me smoke tobacco and--and have drugs!

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

Yo, Zenkitty's cat. Those are only thoughts arising in your head, you do not have to share them with Zen. To be inside and want to be outside is suffering. To be outside and want to be inside is suffering. Be here now. Good kitty.

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

This is like the third Girl Scout embezzlement case I've heard about in the past month! What is up with people taking cookie money away from Girl Scouts??

It's probably the most profitable business where POS is handled by nine-year-olds? There might be some issues with enacting adequate controls to segregate and secure assets.

Or it makes an adorable news hook, that could also be it.

Our wings are not tired.

Nice to hear the good news, Dana.

Perhaps when DH gets older he will be less chatty. As long as I have known him he has talked to all of the people all of the time. Grocery store lines, restaurants, beaches, parties. He just doesn't feel right if he doesn't talk to everyone. It has embarrassed the kids forever, but I find it amusing. I'm fairly social, but he is insanely social.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My father is chattier than ever in public, even though he has trouble putting a full sentence together -- he has as much trouble walking by someone without interacting.

Some of Hubby's issues is that he often stays home all day, either from pain or not having a reason to go out. (Thank god we got two cars so he can wander off when he wants.) He loved running the game store because he could chat about stuff he loved all day. His chattiness is why he's a great salesman.

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

Glad for the good news, Dana.

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

It has taken me this long to wake up properly. I am...it's not a good day, and I'm not working from home. I'm just flat out. And scheduled to have a nasty infusion tonight, but I refuse to project how I'll feel tomorrow.

Ugh ita, I hope life cuts you a break soon.

I'm so sorry, ita. I hope the infusion is in aid of better days to come.

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

I'm sorry, ita. May the infusion go well.

Thank you, -t. He has calmed down and is now watching the outside world through the lattice. He is in Kitty Yoga "Meatloaf" pose.
