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.

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

Sorry, sj. Probably means you are doing something right.

I asked her to get dressed. Trying to maintain some normalcy.

Our wings are not tired.

I need a bad mommy apparently since I am in my jammies.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Well, obviously - that is cruel!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

When Matilda was ltc's age, Hec and I used to intone solemnly to each other in our best History Channel narrator voices, "Truly, we are history's greatest monsters."

Good morning, JZ. How are you feeling, how is your dad?

Ann, that's a ferret.

I asked her to get dressed. Trying to maintain some normalcy.

For what it is or isn't worth, I think you were being extremely sensible. I've been getting dressed every day, regardless of whether or not I expect to go outside. Makes me feel more human.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh yeah, every kid I know is about to leave their terrible, terrible parents. Little do they know what they would find in almost any other family. ALSO a request to get dressed! ALSO a not unlimited selection of food to eat! ALSO a bedtime! Parents are clearly the worst.

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

I have also showered and dressed. It does seem to help, Fred Pete.

I have bookmarked the recipes for dinner tonight and made a vague plan for what we're having this week.

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

She must feel really safe and secure to be able to tell you you're the worst. So good job.

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

How are you feeling this morning, -t?
