Also, you can tell it's not gonna have a happy ending when the main guy's all bumpy.

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

There's some genetic condition that makes people's skin blue,

If you ingest colloidal silver it'll turn your skin blue. Permanently I believe.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

There is also the thing with blue pee in The Maddness of King George III. And there are also the Blue People of Kentucky [link] but it sounds a little urban legendy

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

I think the Blue People of Kentucky is what I am remembering. I can't remember where I read it, though, but I thought somewhere pretty reputable. At least, seemed reputable to me at the time.

I have another who wants to explore the ethical implications of medications that are also considered toxins

As in "I can't prescribe this drug to you because parts of it are harmful in the wrong amount"? IE, "the scientific discovery that small amounts of dangerous chemicals have life-saving abilities is a no-no because you shouldn't ingest icky naughty things that could be harmful, m'kay?"

Well, it's one way to deal with an overcrowded planet and kickstart evolution.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

These are the kind of people I want to talk to very seriously about the dangers of dihydrogen monoxide overdose.

That stuff is pretty terrifying. And it's everywhere!

I was obsessed with the blue people of Kentucky, at one point in high school, after I read an article about it.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

These are the kind of people I want to talk to very seriously about the dangers of dihydrogen monoxide overdose.

And anecdotally I can supply the story of a friend who spent three days in the ICU! (For reals.) We should be very cautious who we let have access to that stuff.

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

Monday needs to knock this shit off, man.

My reaction to today has considerably more swearing in it.

Our wings are not tired

I'm just having the hardest time getting anything done today and I'm just buried. Due to the business growing and changes in the ACA it looks like I need to both change my business structure and pull all of my employment, healthcare, and workers comp coverage in house instead of using employee leasing. So I'm emailing lawyers and insurance and banks today on top of trying to find the top of my desk. I'm also trying to drink enough coffee to get all of this done.

So yeah, it's a Monday
