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.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Sounds like the start of one of Grandpa Jones's routines. Yum, yum!

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

Mmm, that sounds good.

I had chicken soup (in addition to the cocktails and wine). I make some good soup, if I do say so myself.

I decided to harvest the catnip in the hanging basket as a summer solstice treat. There are varying levels of bonker-ness so far, but the funniest to me is the dog being all "where's mine?" Poor Walter, I don't know of any dognip.

It wasn't even casual racism though. She is being sued for a hostile work environment for people of color in her restaurant establishments. I can only imagine the kind of bullshit her employees had to put up with.

Saw my first firefly: happy first day of Summer!

Coincidentally saw my first tonight as well—it's a conspiracy!

My weekend is driving up to Kansas City to pick up a computer from Gudanov tomorrow.

Jeez Aims, I have never heard of a poison ivy infection getting that bad.

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

I'm so sorry, sarameg.

And Aims, how scary for your friends. I hope she recovers soon.

no fireflies here, but more and more music ( that seems to be a major sign of summer)

there was wine , the beer. no cocktails. but I think that is just fine

because this took alooooong time to post

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

But before Paula goes, let us remember her greatest recipe.

Oh man, the first comment:

"This recipe is awesome. I added a pound of bacon and left out the peas. Delicious!"

Hey, shrift should come to Galveston, Houston, and New Orleans too

Hmm. You're going in September? I'm in Atlanta over Labor Day for DragonCon, but I think I'm available after that.
