Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

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.

ION, where would be a good place to discuss Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries? I'm curious as to people's opinions of a long-term relationship between Phrynne and Jack.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Good to hear, Steph.

I just got a call from a heavily accented "Jason" from "Geek Support." I wish I'd had the patience to string him along, since I'm sure he was about to tell me that my computer was compromised, blah blah blah. Instead, I contented myself with, "No, you're not. Come on," and then hanging up on him.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Connie it sounds like a procedural.

Yay Teppy's mom!

Our wings are not tired

I'm being nibbled to death by ducks.

Also, glad to hear the good news re: Steph's mom, but to be honest I was expecting a personalized email about it.

Steph - I did not see anything on FB. Also did not get my personalized carrier pigeon.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

If alla y'all didn't get your telegraphs, I don't know what to tell you.

ION, holy Jeebus SO TIRED. 4:45 a.m. is a BULLSHIT time to wake up, especially when your anxiety wouldn't let you fall asleep until 1:30 a.m. after you stress-ate ALL THE ICE CREAM.

I live about 10(ish) minutes from the hospital, so I came home to feed the wee kitty and get a break, but I'll go back in about an hour, because Mom should be awake sometime between 3 and 5. In theory I'm home to take a nap, but in practice, I can't nap unless I'm sick or heavily drugged. And if I were heavily drugged, I wouldn't wake up in an hour to go back to the hospital.

So I washed the dishes and made the bed because it made me feel better. I should eat lunch, but I'm regretting all that ice cream from last night. Maybe just some soup.

When I fed the wee kitty, it let me pet its little head while it ate! Progress!
