Wash: Little River just gets more colorful by the moment. What'll she do next? Zoe: Either blow us all up or rub soup in our hair. It's a toss-up. Wash: I hope she does the soup thing. It's always a hoot, and we don't all die from it.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

So fine, she says she's putting a new check in the mail yesterday. Lo and behold, I get it today...and she didn't sign it. I AM NOT EVEN KIDDING.

Just deposit it. I bet it goes through no problem.

I just sent it through the ATM for deposit and it went through fine.

I was going to just go to an ATM, and I figured it would probably go through. (I haven't changed my last name legally yet, but the AMA makes checks out to my married name -- at my request [in my defense, I didn't mean to be a slacker] -- and so the teller won't deposit checks made out to my married name, but the ATM doesn't give a shit, so I deposit them there.) I think that signatures -- or the absence thereof -- don't really matter in the 21st century. The automatic processor just looks for the routing number, etc., and processes it.

I HOPE.

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

I definitely mentioned this trip at some point! I am sure of it.

Not where you were going. You are all about mysterious travel to unknown destinations lately!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Still no internet or phone at home. I don't know how you dealt with it, Consuela. Other than by being a better person than me. Goddamnit, I have a constitutional right to have my couch and my internet in the same room!

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Partly, it just seems so unlike me to even be here, it's hard to believe until I'm actually here.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Dana, I basically had no internet at my parents' house this weekend and I read about 5 books. Granted, three of them were Avatar the Last Airbender trades, but they're pretty long.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I don't know if I know anyone (other than possibly my father, because one needs to do that) who's ever been to Lesotho.

You know me! I went to Lesotho, er, [does math] ... 12 years ago? Good lord. Anyway: Have fun, Jesse!

I think there was other stuff I wanted to comment on, but, no brain.

Lesotho-ers, come out of the closet! I want to be jealous of you.
