Paging billytea! turns out this is not just in Australia.
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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Camp is always a good answer.
I say this as someone who never spent a lot of time at home with one person, though, so what do I know?
I am having the kind of week where I wish I didn't have plans after work because I would rather sneak out early and go home where no one wants anything from me. Maybe I'll still leave a little early.

This is how tired I am. I'm out doing errands while ltc is with a sitter. I get to CVS and decide to throw away a couple beverage bottles that I left in my car. When I get back out to the car I see that the 3 day old ice tea is still in my car but the Coca Cola I bought at the drive thru a few minutes ago? Gone.

He's okay with it, because he wasn't sure he wanted it. It's just...the eternal job hunt goes on.

At least you no longer have to face the idea of real winter... for now?

I'm sorry, Dana.
sj, I hope that camp lets you get some rest.
I worked from home today. Now there's a purring cat on my lap and work email is closed. It's a good combo.

Since I was bitching earlier, I feel like I need to say that of the two sitters I've hired, both have been amazing. And I feel lucky to have had them around.
