Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Dear Universe,

Why do you hate me?

It's pre-con payment. Can't have fun without suffering for it in advance.

Signed,
staring at a two-hour conference call

I've been suffering for weeks, and now I think the Universe is just being hateful.

msbelle, is SUCK IT the new EAT IT?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

no, it is just a variation. SUCK IT predates EAT IT.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I don't like today so far, mostly because I have a headache and it's just blah, but also because I just got a Target dress and some dvds delivered, and I want to go home and play with them all, and I can't.

PLEASE can I have that job? I'll smack him more often, if you like.

If your arms ever get tired, just give me a call and I'll buy some brass knuckles and step in as relief.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Also, I thing bon's Bob has a great earnestness in general that helps with the encouraging laugh thing.

So you're saying he's goofy...

No, you're right, and he's especially influential when he laughs while onstage.

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

I totally want to be an audience laugher.

One of my fondest memories of being a camp counselor is of listening to one of my co-counselors explain, in all earnestness, to a bunch of 13-to-15-year-olds, why "Bite me" is a perfectly acceptable thing to say to someone, and "Eat me" is not.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I think I need to purchase Dodgeball soon
