A year and a half ago, I could have eviscerated him with my thoughts. Now I can barely hurt his feelings. Things used to be so much simpler.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

There's the occasional surprise demon showing up in mirrors and the like. I guess it comes down to your kids' readiness and fondness for scary.

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

Timelies all!

Other than the weekly grocery run, quiet day here.

It won't stop raining. I'd like to have gotten more sleep than I did. I'd also like to get my ass moving but the cats aren't cooperating.

I mean, yes, it is the 30th anniversary. But THIRTIETH. All right already!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

This morning, while I was trying to to avoid waking up, but had to pee, I had a dream about being in someone's apartment with a literally impossibly small bathroom. I couldn't quite get the door closed because it was hitting my knees! Good thing I didn't actually pee in my dream/sleep, I guess.

Hahah. Very often when I'm unsuccessfully trying to sleep in, I start having dreams that involve frustrated attempts to shower in impossibly small/defective showers. Or people interfering in my ability to get to said shower. Clearly, a morning shower is an integral part of my routine....

I had to get up much earlier this morning than usual, so I spent a lot of the night dreaming about checking the alarm clock. Not restful.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Those have-to-pee dreams are so freaky. It's like your brain is trying to communicate with you. But you are you! It's very disorienting.

Well, it is NOW!

Our wings are not tired.

I thought I was happily sleeping in this morning, like 7:30 or something, then realized I was fixing a customer's corrupt file in my sleep and decided to just get up and watch television and wander the internet. I hate when I work in my sleep.

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

I couldn't quite get the door closed because it was hitting my knees!

I had a bathroom that was one inch larger than that, once. You couldn't close the door if you were standing at the sink.

I dreamt that I went next-door-to-work with some of my co-workers for lunch and they abandoned me before my order was ready and I couldn't find my way back (actual work, btw, has nothing next door to it - no places to eat or confusing neighborhoods to get lost in, just railroad tracks, freeway, and open fields).
