Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Cincinnati is so close to Indiana (a 20- to 30-minute drive, depending on where in the greater Cincy area you're coming from), I hope to see a bunch of people getting married in Indiana soon, since Ohio is still dragging its feet and resisting the homomentum.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

homomentum

I love this word.

I stole it from Shakesville, to give credit where credit's due.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

So it's apparently a confusing order.

I want to be surprised by this but I'm really not.

My Hallowween cat has a cold. Poor Noodle has been sneezing for the last 24 hours. And now she is being very snuggly making work a challenge.

Dear people I work with,

Things go a lot better if you do what I tell you needs doing. I am leaving at 12:15 today, so good luck with the rest of the day.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm happy that my friends who are Mormons are not likely to be upset about Utah getting on the homo-train.

I'm taking Thursday and Friday off. You would think the world is ending based on the initial responses I'm getting. Sorry folks. You take time off all the time - my turn.

"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty

I asked for coffee. Just coffee.

I really only go to Starbucks when I'm at the airport, so this isn't a thing I need that much, but there should be an Express Line for just coffee because it takes longer to ring up the purchase than it does to fill the order.

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

I thought the Starbucks app was heading that way (in the sense of it remembering your regular order so you could order it as you walked into the store and pay with the app and just get your coffee) but the newest version doesn't seem to have the build-your-order functionality.

I pretty much only go to Starbucks when someone gives me a gift card (not out of any anti-Starbucks principles, really, it's just worked out that way) so each visit is an adventure of me not knowing what I'm doing.

I used to go somewhere that had the carafe of coffee out for self-serve with honor system payment, you only had to go the register for something fancy. That was great.
