Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

What's the upside for spooky lullabies? I just heard [link] and I'm quite perplexed.

They give fledgeling goths a starting point? I dunno, but I love them. I think need a mix of nothing but spooky, creepy lullabies.

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

That lullaby was creepier than some horror movies I've seen.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I am bummed that I'm at work and can't listen to the creepy lullaby until I get home because, like Jilli, I love them.

For Hil, Burrell, and other professory types:

That just about covers it. But I tend to assume any emails about ill/dying/dead relatives or about necessary court dates are completely legitimate.

I've decided that I'm wearing all my cute dresses this week while the weather holds so I can fake it until I make it. If I look put together, perhaps I can deal with ALL THE ONEROUS TASKS coming due at the same time.

It's mostly not my fault that August was a total wash in terms of productivity (THANKS, DAD), but I still have to deal with the consequences.

Ziplines are a lot faster than they look. And you can't close your eyes or else you can't see the guide frantically signalling you to brake as you get to the landing platform.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

But so much fun. You should try it upside down. That was super freaky.

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

Timelies all!

Back to dance practice tonight. First time in a month and a half.(combination of Pennsic, vacation and tiredness)

Today at work my colleague was reading Buffy fanfic, printed, 3-hole punched, and placed in a 3-ring binder, while staffing the phone line.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OMG, did you guys see today's Dear Prudence? Some parent is horrified that their 13-year-old daughter is reading smutty boy band fanfic, and Prudie says, "I can't imagine the authors thought their target audience was teenage girls." Um.....

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Oh, Prudie. So out of touch.
