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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

If I didn't have plans with a friend, I would leave work right now and go home, but she hasn't actually confirmed that we're on and I feel like she might cancel. I wish she would! But of course spending time with friends is a good idea, too....

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

TCG bought me tickets to see Rachel Bloom from Crazy Ex-Girlfriend doing stand up! It's a birthday gift, even though the show isn't until October.

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

Oooh, that should be fun, sj!

And we just got sent home. I'll take it.

Huh. My little waterfront is getting a second hotel. I'm not sure how I feel about that.

Welp, guess that's enough cooling off. Just got copied on the "we quit" email to the restaurant. So that's the end of that.

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

First day of tech, 11:15pm and we just hit "Gary, Indiana". That's a cruel earworm to end on.

False alarm! It was just a mic check!

Hey. New board.

I ate dinner (surprisingly delicious tacos) in Gary, Indiana the other day and have been stuck since.

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

Not Louisiana, Paris, France, New York or Rome?

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

Timelies all!

Nice day here, so we took Mr. S to the zoo.(yes, we brought him back after :) )

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I took my newly minted 12 year-old and 4 of his friends to the mall for "I'm too old for a birthday party we're just hanging out." Driving them home in the car I have never heard the phrase "well actually" so many times in my life. 12 year-olds, y'all.
