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.

I tried to go to a Resistance startup meeting today at the library. The library has two big parking lots and an overflow lot. All full. There wasn't a spot to be had within walking distance. So yay for the great turnout, but I'm a bit sad to miss it.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Is that even physically possible? I mean, it's George Winston.

IKR? My driving music has to be relaxing, so I can get in the right frame of mind for work. Guess it's back to James Taylor...

If JT starts making me feel tense, I'll drive straight to the hospital.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Maybe you need something raucous to let the tension out.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

We spent five hours at the zoo. I'm wiped.

I've had a strange relationship with music ever since my trailer in Arizona got broken into, twenty years ago or so. The burglars took most of my CDs, and it kind of broke something in me. While I have bought more music over the intervening years, I can no longer simply listen to music the way I used to do. I can have the radio on while I am doing something, and a lot of music that I used to love, I hear it, recognize its aesthetic value, but can't bear to listen.

That's awful, WS. Stealing your CDs is bad enough, but stealing your joy in the music they contained is even worse. I hope the thieve's favorite foods turn to ashes in their mouths.

Granola with fresh fruit: Is anyone else watching the Oscars red carpet? I'm liking the top to bottom pleats on Trudy's, Sting's wife, dress. I also like that Sting hasn't traded her in on a younger model.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Agreed!!

Goddamnit, I think I might be getting sick. I have a week and a half before I fly out for a con, and this will have to be over by then.

Which con are you going to Dana?

My role for Denver Comic Con keeps expanding. I'm ok with that, but I'm going to be BUSY from now through July 3rd. Anyone wanna come out here and be one of my liaisons and work five 12 hour days with me? I'm still looking for 2 volunteer liaison captains.
