Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

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

I might try to see X-Men tomorrow. Looks like the earliest showing is 11, maybe I can make that work.

Ugh, I just found a tick and now I'm all oogy and hypersensitive to any sensations on my skin. Ick.

You're just my emergency contact I'll never let them call (poor Colin is the other one--why do you all breed?????).

I should be your emergency contact that will be there, so let them call. Given my expertise with hospitals and medical offices I'm happy to be there if I can be of help.

I am not seeing X-men, because I'm only allowed a couple of movies and I'm choosing Maleficent and The Fault in Our Stars.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I just saw an ad for Chef.

I hadn't heard of it before, but it looks interesting. I might give it a try.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's a really nice small movie. And rated R only for language, so people talk more like real life. At least, my experience of real life. Motherfuckers.

I am currently pleased because I went to the Korean French bakery yesterday, so this morning, I had a red bean roll and a pain au chococat for breakfast! Perfect. And/or parfait. (I don't know how to say it in Korean.)

Wait, there's one in MA?

ita, my eyes are tearing up in sympathy for yours -- I spent so many times in my childhood with miserable watering eyes whenever I got a cold. I'm so glad that doctors actually have something to help with that!

I saw an interview with Jon Favreau the other day, but that's the only time I've heard of it. The interview made me really want to see it.

Dear people applying for passports for your children: Yes, you have to actually bring the child in for the appointment. "Nobody told me" is not a valid excuse. Why would you think we'd issue a vital identity document without actually comparing the photo you submit to your child?
