Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

The status is NOT quo.

Exploding car = not good

But that slow-mo visual made me laugh. Only because I know you're ok.

Congrats, Calli!

I am currently across the street from my school because I realized I was getting hangry and needed to eat something before I had an issue.

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

Timelies all!

Sorry about the car, Strix.

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

New (to me) cat Breed that is sometimes hairless. (Or at least looks like it.)

Yeah, they're a new breed. Cute-looking, but not as cute as the Sphynx, with their weird head-shape and huge ears.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Sorry about the car, Strix. Not sorry about the mental image of you walking away in slow motion.

Congrats, Calli!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Hey, that mental image was the first time I've laughed all day!

Yeah, I'm all right. Just fucking tired of moving, and things going wrong -- basically, my engine wasn't getting into gear, I tried what my mechanic said, engine said no, and started making strange noises and I tried to make it home and 1/2 mile from home, POW oil just JETTING from the car and I'm in the left hand turn lane of a busy intersection at noon.

So no excitement, but I hope I was dressed cuter and looked more bad ass than I did, calling the insurance company for a tow in an orange hoodie and a skirt.

And after cleaning and moving MORE stuff (Still Not Done, Kill Me Fucking Now) we get an email from our realtor than closing will be pushed back.

And we're broke. And I'mm out of sleep and anxiety meds.

So. Tired.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Have reintroduced the Whiteboard of Lists to get my boss on track. Seems to be working somewhat as he's finally advertising for our seasonal position. Then forced him inadvertently to do seasonally appropriate work by starting a project too big for just myself an hour before the end of my day. I got scolded for it, but I didn't give a hoot. I would have worked late to finish it if he hadn't butted in, and his nonsense about coordinating is just that, as he's made it very clear that teamwork is not his thing. So, new agenda is to make gigantic messes that even he can't ignore. I'm growing as a person, I can feel it.

Growing horns, maybe. And a tail, and cloven hooves. So maybe not as a person. But growing.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You guys, I just had the best dinner. Pulled pork out of the freezer, freshly-made cole slaw, and 75% off Easter candy for dessert!

Hey. New board.

Going back to significantly earlier to say I'm sorry so many of hated stats. Because stats is awesome!
