And Kaylee, what the hell's goin' on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

I'm a fucking amazing catch!--Fiona Gallagher, Shameless(US)

Maybe a different simulation, but I feel like I know how that feels, shir. Happy birthday, Kate. Still sick of my life, but it feels a little better that my stomach doesn't hurt.

Our wings are not tired.

Just listening to news on the radio and they were conjecturing that the reason there were 9 male speaker candidates was that the women were too smart to want that job. Now I have seen the female GOP house representatives and I haven't seen a whole lot of brains there so I don't think that is the reason. Who knows, maybe Marjorie Taylor Green will toss her hat in tomorrow.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Thanks for the birthday wishes, everyone! I always take the day off work for my birthday, so I've spent the whole day relaxing, reading, napping, going for a walk, and talking to my brother. An excellent day so far!

Sounds perfect, Kate! Good to hear.

Back from the library dealio. The regional NPR guy did a reading of The Raven and was dressed in period duds. It was nice. I didn't win any of the raffles. Oh well.

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

Timelies all!

Happy birthday Kate!

I am just so tired of all this. I’m tired of not having a stove, not having privacy, Mr. S having awful nights.(I’m in the lobby yet again because I’m too frustrated with his antics, which I know isn’t fair to Gary)

How much longer before you can get back home, Sheryl?

Happy Birthday, Brenda!

And Happy Birthday +1 to Kate!

I'm going to visit my aunt at the beach today through Friday. Many miles to go before I depart...

Beaming love to all.
