Mercy is the mark of a great man. Guess I'm just a good man. Well, I'm all right.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Now is definitely the time to start teaching good sportsmanship.

(I pointed out to him that it's not nice to gloat.)

A brief smug grin may be acceptable. Everyone else will gloat by proxy.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Yay Ryan!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Truth. There are people in the office I can rely on to point out to George, as often as is deemed necessary, that he got beaten by a six-year old boy. Oh, and today is Father's Day in Australia. (Ryan gave me a trophy, a card, a puzzle book and bragging rights in the office. Yay me!)

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

That's kind of perfect.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Well done, Ryan! And can I also say that "Eels" is a great team name.

We used to have teams known as the Bluebags and the Berries. Sadly, they are now the Jets and the Bulldogs respectively. The Gold Coast Seagulls are now defunct, but the Roosters are still around and minor premiers. Oh, and both major codes had a team called the Magpies.

Yeah, those are better.

That sounds like an excellent Father's Day present!

I'm awake, but still in bed. I feel I should get up, but I kinda want to go back to sleep. Hmm.

I kinda feel like any time you can sleep, maybe you should. Since there are so many times that you would like to and cannot. (the general you, you, really meaning me, not specifically meara)
