Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Heh. The BF basically said the same thing. He doesn't want his loss today to take away from the grief we feel at ita's. I told him it doesn't work like that. It's not a "take from pot A and put in pot B" situation. It's more like they become pot AB and the grief and the sorrow flow freely.

Our wings are not tired.

Le Nubian texted me about it, so she knows.

Allyson just posted a call for help in the ita thread, FYI.

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.

Earlier tonight I was checking the news on what used to be AfterElton.com, saw they were doing a photo retrospective for Orlando Bloom's birthday, and thought "Oh, ita will love this!" for about half a second before reality drop-kicked me.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I really don't want to go to bed, because I'm going to lay down and cry and not be able to sleep.

Because books.

What Steph said. I think I'm reading till I nod off.

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

I have already given myself permission to not try too hard to sleep tonight and work from home tomorrow. Not that that option helps you, I suppose, Tep.

I always have that option! Tomorrow is a slow work day, so it doesn't matter much if I can't sleep well tonight. I just don't want to lay down and start crying. I don't know why, seeing as how I've been sitting and standing while crying all day.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Yeah, I'm home from rehearsal and cycling through so many emotions, it's exhausting. I only have the iPad in bed, because I know if I had the computer, I'd never get to bed.

I've got a dumb bombast movie on in the background (Phantom of the Opera), and have resigned myself to not sleeping a lot or well before my 7am phone meeting. Whatever.
