You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

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

Glad the kitty is home! Don't run out the door anymore, silly Duchess, okay?

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

ltc had her school orientation today, and she was the only kid who wasn't even a little bit shy. All the others spent at least a little time hiding behind their parents. My kid walks in, says hi, and starts playing with the toys. Where did this social being come from?

Bleargh. Long day, lots of pain. Need to call the wheelchair lift place, and the foot and ankle specialist doctor, and now the tire pressure light on my car came on, so I need to make an appointment with the tire people, too, because I'm sure it's another nail. And need to work all weekend to get stuff ready for next week. Blah.

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.

Hil, that's a lot. It's just a lot. If it were an alot, it might be nicer, because you might be able to snuggle it.

I'm also probably going to have to get off the internet for a while this weekend. Hurricane stuff is still incredibly triggering for me.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I didn't think I was incredibly stressed about the hurricane, but it's apparently up to a category 4, and thank jesus it's not hitting New Orleans. That's all I've got.

Somewhat better Harvey news, it's been downgraded to a Cat 1. So far, it reminds me of Isaac in 2012, where it was "only" a Cat 1 and stalled over us for days causing flooding, wind damage and a whole lot of power outages.

But yeah, hurricanes (esp. in late August) are so triggering to people here.

I can't imagine living with that anxiety. We "just" live on the sun's surface.

Harvey is firmly of the belief that he is Cat 1.

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

That made me laugh, Andi. Thanks for that.
