Actually, I was thinking it would be sort of like a pet. You know, we could...we could name her Trixie, or Miss Kitty Fantastico, or something.

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

Wow Kat, that's big news. Let me know when you're at UCLA. I'd love to have a happy reason to go there.

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

Good luck figuring out what to do, Kat.

Hooray goats!

It's pretty overcast, I don't know if it'll be worthwhile to stay up for the eclipse.

Decannulation! That's awesome!

I am drinking wine and eating nutella, after a dance class that made me feel like a worse dancer than when I started. Grr.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Very exciting (and nervous-making) Grace news!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Best of luck with Grace.

I just dreamt I was fired. like, not sure it's Tuesday morning fired. I'm not looking for comfort, but why does our brain allow us to do that to ourselves? How is that good for us?

:: checks date::

I would have said something if they fired me yesterday, right? Okay, maybe not. But I think it wasn't real.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Baby goats are wonderful. Decannulation for Grace would be even more wonderful.

Pouring rain. No eclipse for me. Secretly glad because I didn't want to get up at 3am.

I've been having rotten stress dreams too. Lots of people in my head who don't like me.

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

A friend of my mom's did a study on masochistic dreaming as a way of processing negative emotion, but I never heard the outcomes. Still feels like your brain piling on.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Wow, Grace!

I saw a lot of goats last week, and they sure are goat-like, aren't they? I mean with the yelling and climbing and glayvin.

Punishingly Intricate

I had a dream last night that I was in a yoga class where the teacher was assigning us our "virtual ages" & she told everyone else in the class they were 18 & I was like "around 30." I also had to get on a 6pm flight and it was 530 & I hadn't packed yet. Earlier in the night I thought someone was in the room and woke up screaming (and the windows were open so I was terrified that I'd wake my neighbors and they'd come check on me). All in all my brain was being a total dick to me last night!
