Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My dad's birthday, too! I don't think anyone is seriously worried, right?

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

I don't know anyone personally who is actually worried, but I have (unfortunately) noticed at work a distinct uptick in really unpleasant situations around the city. Now, part of that is people being totally paranoid after the mass shootings (OMG! There's a guy with a gun in the grocery store! But then police confirm it was just a guy holding his cell phone funny) but there's also just way more volume. So I'm pretty worried about one or two people going waaaay overboard and causing a massive problem. I'll be taking a week's worth of meals with me to work Thursday night for lo, I am paranoid about other people's reactions.

Art Crawl!!!

Kind technology, ita!

I really enjoyed the movie: saw it at imax with 3/d and best imax and 3d experience ever.

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

I don't know anyone who is seriously worried, but it's still kind of annoying to see it everywhere. It's kind of like how Octomom happened right when we were trying to get PG using IVF. I was ready to smack the next person who said, "Just don't put in 8!" Shut it, smartasses.

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

The world's not going to end. That'd be too easy. It's like when you realize in January that your last desk calendar is no longer accurate and have to go to Office Max for a new one. Does Office Max still exist?

Ugh, I have the stabbiest headache right now. It's not even the level of pain that is making me want to go fetal, it's the stabbiness. I'm considering throwing up and taking a nap. I don't think I could sleep but I could hide.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

So how many people are actually freaking out about the world ending on Friday?

I'm not worried, but I'll be annoyed if it happens. Of course, it's not like I can do anything about it.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I haven't heard anyone talk about the "end of the world" seriously. I would be annoyed if it happened, as well. There are so many books left to read!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I'm attending it as a facebook event, so it must be true.

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

Does Office Max still exist?

Not the Mayan franchises, which is the problem. Where am I supposed to get my Long Count wall carvings for the next 7000 years?!

I hope the home health thing works out, ita! And that the Hobbit is thoroughly enjoyable.

And now that I am on a computer and not my phone - thanks for sorting out what past me was talking about, y'all! I could have googled, but I was sure buffistas would know without me having to figure out relevant search terms.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

And also because I failed to make this joke at the actual event today, but since the US government apology to Native peoples was read aloud today, I totally believe that it's the end of the world now.
