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.

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!

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.

My colleague is in her 50s! (Also, from what I could see, and I could see enough to see it was Buffy fanfic, not smutty.)

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I haven't regularly read fic in years, and yet my first thought was "hmm, what fic? anyone we know?"
