Cordelia: I get it now. You're all spies. Probably all Russian. And you've brainwashed me, and want me to believe we're friends so I'll spill the beans about some nano-technology thingy that you want. Gunn: So I look Russian to you? Cordelia: Black Russian. Angel: That's a drink.

I've emptied out my file cabinet in anticipation of the junk people coming to take it away. I'm going through the files. Of course there's a lot of stuff of "Why the hell did I keep that?" but naturally a lot of "this makes me sad but I should keep it." Fortunately there's a lot of "Ha! This is lots of years old so I can dump it!" My shredder's going to get a lot of work.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

We got a 20 yard dumpster yesterday and it's already half full. And I RIPPED a nail off tossing stuff in, which really fucking hurt. There's blood.

Our wings are not tired.

Ouch, a little less enthusiasm there, Strix!!

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

So, I signed up for this nutritional, uh, service,I guess, and part of the process involves sending them blood samples to analyze (that sounds way sketchier than it does in their marketing copy) so I fasted for 10 hours then drank a 1000 calorie shake and poked my fingers several times this morning. And went and found a FedEx drop box that gets picked up on Saturdays. Have lost all motivation to do anything else.

I hope it gives good insight. I hate the finger poke thing!! I had to do it weekly for both pregnancies and it sucked. Ouch. (I am big baby)

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

Laura, I've been thinking about trying Orangehteory, so imagine my happiness finding that someone of the same age and, uh, roundness, has already done so! I think I'll check it out this week.

The finger pokes were not too bad, but my digestive system is not pleased with this divergence from my regular way of eating.

It is definitely worth trying the free session, Scrappy. I was super skeptical but happy with how it turned out.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I am wearing more makeup than I usually do, and I'm having to get over that instinctive response of seeing myself in the mirror and thinking I look like a clown. I mean, I'm relatively sure I don't look like a clown.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Isn't Orangetheory the one where you go through a prescribed set of exercises for a predetermined length of time? Or maybe I'm thinking of something else orange-y.
