All right, yes, date and shop and hang out and go to school and save the world from unspeakable demons. You know, I wanna do girlie stuff!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Zachary Quinto on jeopardy. Not bad.

I was not a fan of Penn Jillette prior to that, but now I hate him! Good job.

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.

Sometimes you have to embrace being the worst. It's better to be the last over the finish line than to be the first to do nothing. May you be the best worst runner in that race that you possibly can, meaera.

I hope that actually helps rather than makes you want to throw up.

Great. After a week of being completely clear, (it was sluggish, I treated it, it handled 3 large loads of laundry) my sewer line is stopped up. I think my whole shower ender up in the basement. I can't even begin to deal with this until this evening. At least my next door neighbor is out of town, so I can use her place? Though if it is the main line...urgh. Will have to see if I can get the city to come work from her clean out drain.

See, meara, it could be worse? Just run your best. And flush with abandon!

Our wings are not tired.

I'm a little freaked out because I was googling and found the times for past years of the race I'm doing in the morning. And by the looks of those? I will be dead last. Seriously last. The slowest person was a full six minutes faster than my 10k PR. That'll be awkward...

My first marathon I was the absolute last, which I didn't know until the newspaper listed all the participants. 6:59 - they cut off at 7 hours. I totally felt like a winner for doing the race.

You are not racing against people; you are racing for yourself.

As for death penalty, I wouldn't be on the jury because I would never find it acceptable. How more premeditated can murder be than the death penalty? It is strictly a moral thing with me. Two wrongs do not equal a right. I can see murder in self-defense or defense of others and that type of thing, but cold decision making by "civilized" society to take life just goes against my being. I get why others favor it, but I have never been able to accept it as an option.

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

I was not a fan of Penn Jillette prior to that, but now I hate him! Good job.

Yeah, I only caught the last half (maybe less) but he did not win any points with me.

Go meara! Run run run, go the distance etc.

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

Timelies all!

Quiet weekend here.

I'm in Philadelphia! Exciting.

Jesse, you've been doing tons of fun travelling along the coast recently. I'm awfully envious. Or is it jealous. What's the difference between the two again?

Aaron Rodgers, OTOH, killed it on celebrity jeopardy this week in a completely adorkable cardigan.
