That's what I've always thought, Juliana.
Right, there comes a point where you have to either move on, or just buy yourself a Klingon costume and go with it.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Wow. I once gave a presentation in a mathematics class on topology, which include a largely failed attempt to fold a doughnut. This would have come in handy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I agree with that, but it'll be a long time for either, I'm sure. (Of course, who knows what "a long time" is! I would not have thought we'd have a black president yet, either...)

Jesse, right? Also I totally thought the first Black president would be a Republican (Powell or Rice) because enough Dems would cross over to make history. I was wrong wrong wrong.

hip deep in pie
American politics is weird. I rarely know the religions of most of the PMs. Except the current one, who belongs to a freakass church. Okay, and if they're French, I assume they're RC.
My poor dad was in so much pain that they took him back to the hospital today. They X-rayed his hip and there's nothing broken, but they can't see any other reason why he's in the pain that he's in. They're admitting him overnight, and he'll see an orthapedic specialist in the AM.
ION, I just remembered I have a potluck in French class tomorrow. Good thing I always have ingredient for cookies on hand.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Openly gay, clearly.
Thanks for that link, Ginger. I'm beginning to feel like I've used up the internet--I'm searching for great examples of his high contrast work, and that piece is too muddy. :(.
Most frustrating, there was a picture I fell in love with for inspiration, and I can't find it any more. Had the best moon light source...

A lot of Dore's reproduced work looks kind of muddy. I think in many cases the original was larger.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.
Sue, your poor dad. I hope he can get some relief from the pain now that he's in the hospital. What a difficult situation.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
I've "discovered" a new way to fall asleep when having made the mistake of sleeping all Sunday: books on tape. It's like reading, but I don't have to strain my eyes or physically hold a book up, and I have the bad habit of "I'll just finish this chapter --ooh, what happens nocjkpext?! I'll just finish this next chapter..."
But with books on tape, I'm laid out in my comfy sleeping position, and as soon as I find my sleepy self being disturbed by the noise, I hit pause and continue falling asleep. No adjustment of position, no putting a book away. Hooray!
Now I just need to stockpile books on my phone.
