I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the twelfth century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophesy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.

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

I'm sorry, Zen.

It's been lovely reading about all of your holiday festivities. Thanksgiving was my first day off in a couple of weeks, as usual, so I enjoyed a quiet day on my own. I was fighting a migraine so I slept a lot, but I rallied enough to make a sweet potato-carrot-red lentil soup and some sauteed kale. I'll have soup for days.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

I'm sorry, Zen.

I'm super-thankful for all of you. Buffistas have been my people from the first moment I landed here, and I'm so grateful for the love and support. I hope that I've given you half as much as you've given me.

I'm so sorry, Zen.

Also, what Maria said. I'm so grateful for all of you.

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

Thanks, all.

And, what Maria said.

I just had a fairly depressing conversation with my sister. From the outside, my family looks like we've got it all together. But man, are we dysfunctional.

Our wings are not tired.

{{Buffistas}} I am unpacking decorations and lights and stuff and drenched with sweat. Like dripping all over. It's 84 out, but very breezy. I'm in the house with AC. Going to start setting up outside where maybe the wind will help. I have a bunch of stuff that was my Mom's, so lots of warm memories and smiles unpacking it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's 84 out, but very breezy.

Meanwhile, my mother and I are going to go for a walk, because it's warmed all the way up into the 40s!

My condolences, Zen.

I'd planned to go in to the office and work this afternoon, but between a late start, striking out at the only two places I'd pick up lunch on that side of town, and general don't wanna-ness I'm scrapping that plan and relaxing instead. Maybe I'll go in tomorrow if I'm more motivated, maybe I'll just rush a bit more next week.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Things I never imagined I'd say, part whatever: S, get your hand out of the tribble!

I thought I got a decently early start, but realized belatedly that somehow my watch was set an hour earlier than reality. So I was not ahead of the game at all. Oh well. Had pie for breakfast. Ordered more coffee filters because I had to French press. Doing laundry. Roommate is out of town. Now if I could just find a friend who wants to hang out or go to the movies...
