You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

I still haven't made it over to Fluff, but my tummy is iffy just now. Maybe I'll cut down some plantsdo some gardening, which is much closer to home and the bathroom....

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I was awakened by the Elks, in their field across the street, having their Bluegrass festival

This sentence got really weird before I realized not that kind of elks.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Heh.

Yikes, Brenda! I'm glad he's okay.

So right as I was packing up to leave work yesterday I was called upstairs again and was offered the job. Effective Monday I'll have a new title and salary for what I've been doing since November. Woo! That also means I really need to clean out my late boss' desk and get going on hiring an assistant.

Always Anti-fascist!

I bought a used book online, it was really cheap and a book Everyone was talking about last year, but it reeks of patchouli. Can I ever get it out?

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

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

All right, aurelia! About time, but congratulations all the same!

erika, I have a sneaking suspicion that patchouli is eternal.

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

Yay, aurelia! Finally!

erika, I have seen guides to getting mildew scent out of water-damaged books, maybe those techniques would apply? I don't remember what they were, unfortunately, as it wasn't something I actually needed to know.

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

Congratulations, aurelia!

erika, I have a sneaking suspicion that patchouli is eternal.

Did anyone else go to a "stinking hippies" place? just me? Not that I'm anti-patchouli. I did go to Berkeley after all. But perhaps for that very reason, I do relish the opportunity to say Stinking Hippies!

Thanks!

erika, my first thought is sprinkling it with baking soda and/or sticking it in the freezer.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good news, aurelia!
