Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I didn't realize that Facebook!Rio was not Buffista!Rio (what I assumed was that Buffista!Rio had 2 FB accounts; one with her real name for more work-related purposes, and one as "Rio" for jackassery). Interesting.

Hah! I was very confused for a bit and then decided to just let it roll. Am glad to know FB Rio so it's all good in the end.

hip deep in pie

Yeah, I realized it wasn't our Rio as soon as I saw her feed, but she's nice and posts great links and has a v. similar taste in music to me, so I call it a win.

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

I don't think I'm gonna make it to any festivities today. It's hot, leaving the house seems like a lot of trouble, and talking to people is completely unappealing. Maybe I'll wander down and see the fireworks if it cools down, maybe I'll see what I can see from my porch.

Have gotten more dishes washed and read several short stories, though, so that's good.

OMG, my homemade guacamole is so damned good with my enchiladas. The guac is just slightly bitter. Perhaps it's because I put in too much salt. Will have to try again (darn it).

I am on my way to a party which I am hoping does not suck. If it does, eventually I can go to another friend's place, but not until 930 or so. Fingers crossed.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Thanks Hec!

Party is ok. Had a fascinating convo with a dude firefighter who writes kindle romance/erotica for extra money. Sadly, no cute girls other than the host who invited me (who is not interested, as far as I can tell). Sigh.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, when I messaged Facebook!Rio she was all, yup, you've got me confused but lots of you do and I like y'all, so no need to defriend. So I didn't! And this fathers day I realized which rock star exactly and was all !!! momentarily.
