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

No, really, can we just not? I'm pretty sure we can.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Not today.

I am asking you, as a favor, to let it rest, Connie.

I have MOVED FURNITURE and cleaned around and underneath. more sweeping, more laundry. I really think I want to get the old TV out of this room, but not sure I can do that alone. That would free up my mantle and I could make it all display-y and fun.

mac is still not home to clean his room and bathroom.

took some stuff to the garage. I've got a pile of coffee table books and no coffee table. If I moved my tv set-up around a bit, maybe they could go there.

Very clear to me that after I get through this current round of library books, I must start reading from my stash. I know I will not want to keep them all after reading, so that will free up shelf space, but not something I can do anything about now.

Right. Onward.

I NEED you to come out and help me figure out my furniture, msbelle. I currently have a wonderful bookcase in my hallway because I need to figure out how best to rearrange my living room to make space for it, and I just get to that, "We fear change," place and my brain freezes up.

I have too much furniture. Too much everything really, because I keep taking more and more and more from people.

I'd love to come out and rearrange furniture! Space and time and money are stupid and ruin all my plans.

Woo, msbelle! I will try to follow your fine example tomorrow.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I want to rearrange the furniture, but first we need new bookshelves from IKEA. And if I go to IKEA, I'll spend a bazillion dollars, probably on lampshades and candle holders.
