Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Pool drama cracks me up. In Jan/Feb we had huge pool drama. It seems to have simmered down to pool quiet resentment.

You don't fuck with people's exercise routines!

Especially old people!

Today there were all sorts of new people at the gym (okay 3 in the pool) and the entire parking lot was full when I left at 6:10 AM.

New session? Summer camp registration?

Since we have several fields used for lacrosse tourneys, peewee football, soccer, bootcamp, I don't flinch too much at a full lot. But sometimes it is warranted.

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

Wow Kat, congratulations! That's exciting

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

congratulations, kat!

And congrats, -t! I didn't run today, but I climbed, and my hands are now sore, and stiff. I need to climb more, I think, or start lifting again, argh.

But I have had kale salad and a glass of wine and two cookies, so it's time for bed, so I can run in the morning, woot.

G'night Buffistae!

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Congratulations, Kat! That's awesome!

I'm an introvert and independent and solitary, but I love me some community, and quickly gravitate to being an active member.

That describes me to a tee. I love my solitude and quiet, but there's something about a close-knit (but not omnipresent) community that fills a deep-seated need.

-t, good for you on the running!

Muppet -- the cat I never complain about -- had an accident 'outside the box' this morning, which revealed rusty-colored urine, so it's off to the vets when they open.

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

Timelies all!

Really need to pack, and yet I'm sitting here.
