We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I hate it, but that might just make it resume catnip.

advocate? direct? recommend?

I hate resumes, but at least, unlike cover letters, you generally only have to do them once or maybe two or three times if you're directing it at different types of job.

Brains are weird. The last day or two, I've been dissolving into grief and fear and anger from contemplating going through eye surgery without Hubby. He was supposed to be here to hold my hand, dammit. It's the closest I've come to full=on wailing. I calmed down, did a bit of rearranging of my desk, then the thought wandered through, "It sucks, but it'll be done soon, no big deal."

The same brain, mental bootleg turns with no warning. I need better anti-sway bars.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Did we know about "The Secret Life of a Journal" Comic? [link] "It's like my life is a bottle episode". ETA Due to salty language, it's NSFW.

Yeah, Connie. Anti-sway bars sound good. It's almost bleak how what must be done, can be done.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Yep. It's going to happen. And it sucks. It's normal, but that doesn't make it hurt any less. Roll with the flow and ride it out. For me, fighting them made it so much worse.

In case it is in any doubt, erika is the best! I just received and awesome parcel from Powell's in the mail! My first thought was, "self you have not been drunk for several months now, how did you order something from Powell's and not remember it." But no, the package was from erika with the audio version of Go the Fuck to Sleep, a copy of Operating Instructions by Anne Lamott and a copy of Of Woman Born by Adrienne Rich! Best pregnancy gift ever.

My signed copy of Neil Gaiman's Trigger Warnings was also in the mail, and I'm still more excited about the gift!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Oh that's an awesome gift, sj. And well done, erika!

Lamott and Rich all at once--makes you want to deem Sam Jackson a temporary, honorary woman.

You are so welcome. Well done, Powell's on the shipping too...wonder how SLJ would feel about honorary womanhood...
