I get confused. I remember everything. I remember too much, and... some of it's made up, and... some of it can't be quantified, and... there's secrets.

Our wings are not tired.

I am so angry/horrified/scared about the guy who went into one of the pizza joints we go to here in DC and fired a gun.

I hadn't seen any of that (news avoidance mode) and just caught up. Most of the reason I have been avoiding news is I hate hating humanity. Can't we just move all the horrible stupid people somewhere and build a wall around them?

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

Jesse, I'm so sorry for your god sister. I can't even imagine.

Oh, Jesse. Peace to you godsister and family. That is just too hard.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

That's good news about your boss, Sophia!

Hope you get water back soon, Laura.

Horrified about the pizzagate gunman. Thank goodness he didn't shoot anybody.

Oakland is just overwhelming. Seems like everyone knows someone who was hurt.

Jesse, there are no words. I'm so sorry. That just shouldn't happen.

Can this awful year finish out with no more horrors, please?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Everything is terrible, is basically where I'm at today.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Everything is terrible

Nuh-uh. Pat McRory just conceded!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, that's something.

not your mom's socks.

Jesse - so sorry, that's heartbreaking.

Our wings are not tired.

Pat McRory just conceded!

Yes, we must pause to treasure the victories.

My new grocery store has a fancy-ish cheese department, and every Saturday they feature an exotic-to-Utah cheese. However, they keep pushing pickles as part of the samples they're handing out. Cracker/cheese/pickle. Is pickle the fashionable choice with cheese tastings these days? It doesn't seem fair to the cheese.
