Pre or post-Penlind?
I assume post, I think this would have been the 2002 PBP (or rather, the after-party up in the hospitality suite).
We die horribly and painfully, you go to hell and I spend eternity in the arms of baby Jesus.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Jesse, are you an only child? I just ask, because I am, and I have a theory that this is a thing about only children: we're not that competitive, because we didn't have to be.
I am! And I think that's right. I have basically 0 competitiveness. I would like to do well in competition for myself, but I am also generally happy when others do well!

I'm in the only child club too. I don't think I'm all that competitive, I just don't want to ever fail.

I'm a youngest child. I observed the competition above me and decided it wasn't worth the effort. I was a great disappointment in my in-laws Thanksgiving board game competitions, because I preferred to actually win the game rather than go out of my way to send a competitor back to start when they were close to winning. If my beloved's family had been the Borgias, I'd never have eaten at their table.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Man, I feel like I deserve a cookie for scheduling appointments with 2 different doctors for this week. (I've slid into a curmudgeonly attitude of "Well, it'll probably go away if I ignore it," which has turned out to not be true for these things, both of which are minor but bothersome and really do need to be addressed.) I guess what I deserve the cookie for is not ignoring my rickety old body's various ailments (at least, not ignoring them for longer than 2 weeks).
I also need a haircut. Having a body is HARD. It needs so much fine-tuning and regular attention!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Mr. S started his program today.Seems like it went fairly well.(Some spitting in the morning, and at the end of the day, but otherwise good.)

It was pretty fun!
I'm still mad I didn't get a haircut when I was OFF WORK FOR A WEEK. This week for sure. I'm going to call right now even though they are closed.
