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.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

And person who thinks they have my fannish email address is unsuccessfully trying to log into their Fortnite account.

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

I need to figure out what I'm going to do with the very energetic toddler all summer. Everything she currently does ends in n the next 3 weeks, school, story time, basketball, and dance. And her sitter is graduating and moving away in the next couple weeks as well. So far I've got 2 weeks of day camp at her school booked and the possibility of two nieces coming over once a week starting in July.

Taxes and dentists, ptui!

Earlier today I said that I was going to the kitchen for a knife, and had to clarify that it was for a plastic knife for my sandwich and that I was not planning to murder anyone at this time.

AT THIS TIME! No promises on the future.

I'm feeling really down, and trying to convince myself that I need to (a) go walk to the UPS store to return a package and (b) go work out. When really I just want to go curl up in my bed and feel sorry for myself and then hate on myself for being overdramatic and not grateful for what I have.

I reserve the right to flip out like a mammal at any time.

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

Woohoo, no waiting at the pharmacy! In the sense that I just have to wait in the pickup line, I don't have to wait for my prescription to be filled and then wait in line.

There are few things nicer than the upswing after a bad cold. Yesterday I could barely stand upright and I was learning new definitions of post-nasal drip. Today I've got a mild sinus headache and I'm starving. I had to force myself to eat yesterday. Though the intermittent vertigo is still pouncing on me.

If I stay up too late, I don't have to go to tomorrow's 3-hour meeting that starts at 7:30AM, right?
