Played with Kaylee. Sun came out, and I walked on my feet and heard with my ears. I ate the bits, the bits stayed down, and I work. I function like I'm a girl. I hate it because I know it'll go away. The sun goes dark and chaos has come again. Bits. Fluids. What am I?!

Cool you could attend.

I've been Ubering for three hours, and been to the airport three times. It's a nice time to be driving around.

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

Timelies all!

I'm sorry, Sue.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

In a break from my usual Saturday morning, I have gone outside! And checked three things off my pre-Christmas to-do list! Huzzah.

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

I'm so sorry, Sue.

The library opening does sound excellent.

Our wings are not tired.

I'm so sorry, Sue.

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

Oh, I'm sorry, Sue. Good-bye, sweet Clio.

I leave for my trip on Tuesday. I have more stuff to do before then than I can possibly get done, and am I doing any of it? No, I'm procrastinating and whining. I don't want to clean the house for the petsitter. I don't want to wrap presents. I don't want to pack. I don't want to box up a million books and haul a million boxes to charity. I don't want to edit six papers. I want to watch tv and eat Doritos and pretend it will be Saturday for another week.

sigh Okay, fine, I'll go be grown-up now.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

Sorry about Clio, Sue.

Oh, Sue. I am so sorry.

Thanks everyone. I'm still gutted, but the kind words do help.

The library is beautiful. There's two cafes, a roof deck, a performance/lecture space, gaming space on the kids floor, a recording studio. They've truly got that idea of the library as a community/third space. And for the opening, they handed out 300 pairs of scissors, so that everyone could cut the ribbon to open it, since it was the city's library.
