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.

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

You guys! I am such the proud mama. Frances, who is actually super shy and has incredible stage fright, gave a very personal performance today at school as part of an after school theater class called My Own Story. Each kid wrote a few autobiographical pieces which then were turned into individual skits or monologues. It was very touching and sweet and moving as each kid basically gave a piece about their own fears and doubts and moments of overcoming them.

I made a video but I know Franny would hate it if I posted it, so I won't do that. But I will most likely post the flyer if I can get it scanned.

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

Oh, how wonderful! Go Franny!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

That's so cool! Good job, Franny!

Thanks, it was such a cool project, and it seems like the kids really bonded.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Welcome, Alexandra!

JZ, I'm glad your friend's daughter had your support.

Go Franny!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Very cool, Burrell!

Strangely, the prospect of vacuuming at 8 am does not fill me with glee.

Ok, that's done. And I think I found enough nontrashed 70f appropriate clothing. Though I seem to be missing a pair of jeans.
