I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Yeah, I tend to drive the same car until it gives up, partially because getting a new one is a bit daunting, but you do have to take safety into consideration. The new car is cute!

I'm with K on this one. I'm glad you're in a solid car.
I am avoidy a lot, although I'm working on it, and am getting better. But this one's got So Much riding on it that I am probably going to fuck up just by not doing it.
Ok, fuck it, I'm doing it. Shit, it's not even that hard.

Go, Liese, and do! And then it will be done and not hanging over you any more.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
I expected to have to work this weekend, but that got cancelled, so I gave in to an impulse and drove down to the Ozarks to see what was left of the Fall colors. I'm spending the night in my old home town, and tomorrow's plan is to go south through the Ouachitas, west on the Talimena Drive, then north through eastern Oklahoma, stopping at my very favorite BBQ place for takeout before heading home.
Liese, I work only three blocks from the downtown convention hall. Wednesday lunch is a great idea.

Great, dcp. I will figure out what our actual schedule is and we'll coordinate. Do you still have my digits? And do yours still end in 63?
Anyway, meep, I did it. Super scary. But done.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
The number I have for you ends in 21. Mine does end in 63, and hasn't changed. It's in my profile if anyone wants it.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Cute car, Kat!
I am avoidy by nature, but right now my only goal is bed.

Yay Liese! Not avoidy is better. And I say that as the queen of avoidy.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think I just had nightmares that the women in Caffe Urth whose clothes I criticised kidnapped me and framed me for a crime and forced me to eat high glycemic and other migraine trigger foods and I couldn't work out which was worse but all the cops were replaced by kids and the women had bad dye jobs and I also bit their hair off.
BUT THERE WERE SOME REALLY BAD CLOTHES THERE YESTERDAY. I do love the Melrose Caffe Urth--I like their food and drinks (I may be confined to fruit and oatmeal, but all their other stuff is great to look at...) and the people crack me up or legit interest me. I took my sister's friend who's in from Ja there for coffee yesterday, and we talked about art (he used to have a t-shirt design business and is thinking of getting back into it, and I got to talk to him about discipline and making a regular process as good for your craft) and either he didn't get the high degree of manlove in what I normally do, or he doesn't care because he expressed interest in seeing it, not just then, but in the future, which was nice of him.
Okay, I really need my heart rate down so I can get the rest of a night's sleep.
