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.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I don't think I've ever had it off in any other job, which is presumably why I forgot I had it off last year. Assuming I did, because who remembers anything?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Wait- today is Thursday?!? I can't believe I thought it was Wednesday. We usually get off early, but I will probably go to the theatre and sand clothes.

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

I'm always pretty surprised to have Good Friday off, I don't think I have anywhere else. But I'll take it!

I had no reason to know when Easter was for a long time, since Spring Break in college was just the third week of March, pretty much. I had a funny conversation with one of my coworkers the other day - he was saying he grew up LDS and they didn't do Good Friday or "Fat Thursday" or saints, so I gave some Catholic and Orthodox the low down, probably confused more than it clarified. Extra funny to me, though, because it was about a day after we discussed how I didn't have anything planned for this weekend and Passover is still a month off. I have layers.

Sand clothes?

I've only had Good Friday off when working for European companies (like now).

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

ION, Ghomeshi was found not guilty of sexual assault today.

The fuck?! Because even in 2016, the word of one man is clearly more reliable than the word of 3 women. I wonder how many women need to testify under oath before a man's singular version of events doesn't outweigh their combined testimony?

Although perhaps I should be more circumspect, maybe the judge wasn't quite as reprehensible as he comes across in that article.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Timelies. I woke up with my normal work alarm this morning. Tried to get moving, grumbling about not being home, and then I flopped down on the spare queen bed and was asleep before my head hit the mattress. When I next awoke, I somehow thought it was only 7am. I got moving and as I grabbed my phone to leave the room, I realized it was 10:30. Oppps. I'm catching up on work now but am feel completely off timewise.

Although perhaps I should be more circumspect, maybe the judge wasn't quite as reprehensible as he comes across in that article.

From what I've read, he's not good. He was quoted on twitter saying: "We must fight against the stereotype that all sexual assault complaints are truthful." [link]

I just inadvertently jumped in front of a bunch of ppl in a line to order lunch. There are 2 doors into this place and no form line here sign. Also there were 2 free registers and one had just yelled "I can help the next person". None of the dudderheads standing about moved, so I did, then got glares. Slow ass people.
