Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

Simones rocking it this olympics. For all the little black girls in lessons at my pool, I'm glad they've got a Simone Manuel Gold to aspire to, rather than black girl Phelps or black Ledeckey, both of which I've heard from parents this week.

Because books.

Well, I did leave him. I guess I did it for a reason, right?

Or maybe I'm callous and strange? I hope not.

What is even happening?

Amy baby, you've always been Willow (but not callous and strange in that way, dear).

I don't think you are callous and strange! I haven't been where you are and I appreciate hearing how it is for you, while feeling like my desire to take notes for further rumination is perhaps not the proper response.

OK, I have a lawn chair pointed at where I think Perseus will be visible above my neighbors roof later. If I wake up at 3 or 4 am, as I have been doing with some frequency, I'll go see what I can see meteor shower-wise. I have never had good luck with these, so I don't want to put forth too much effort, but I can do that much.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I have clothes to put on , because I have been waking between 3 and 4 as well - and I know which direction to look. It is slightly foggy out, but if I wake up it will be a good thing to do

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

It's 2am and I didn't see any meteors. I'm going to bed.

I saw a few, then I got cold and came back inside. Better than my historical average for meteor showers.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I wanted to go look for meteors, but I'm still fighting that cold, so I went to bed by 11:00.
