Hell, I don't know. If I had wanted schooling, I'da gone to school.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

My city doesn't have a Judgemental map.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Today is a shifty day. Dead internet and dying car.

Oh, fuck you, autocorrect. A shitty day.

CJ got his braces off this morning. As we were leaving, they gave him a carmel apple.

Mm, caramel apple.

I would like my style to be slightly more "Danish modern"--what's hilarious though is that my Danish grandmother totally had her whole house in that style, so for the longest time it just screamed dated and old to me. But now my mom has her dining room table and chairs and I would LOVE to have them. (I admit, I like the couches I have better, because they're more comfy)

But having just seen my neighbor's staged house, I want someone to come in and make mine awesome. And, y'know, magically clean all my stuff up so it fits nicely in drawers and closets.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I hope your day gets better, Dana.

I grew up with Danish modern. Now I want upholstery and carved wood for miles.

Dead internet and dying car.

So the punishment before vacation has begun.

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

Heading into three hours of meetings. Possibly with lunch included? Outlook uncertain.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Burrell is wise--I called the UCLA position and asked if it was closed and they said not yet, things were just moving slowly. I told them I'd like to get a chance to show off my writing skills, and she said she'd check if I'm still in the running.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Our house was built in 1938, so we are kind of just-before-mid-century. This is our dining room set: [link] But with a sideboard and without the cool curtains. I love it SO MUCH. The whole shebang cost us $1,000 on CL. I'd love to do our whole house in Heywood-Wakefield, but it's usually WAY too expensive. Plus my husband loves Mission style, so a lot of our stuff is in that style.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ooh, that's a great dining room!

Oh, my actual house is from the early 20th C, but I forget when.
