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.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.

At the very least, I am hoping to drive up for the day, maybe on Sunday. YAY!

Right on!!!

Is this a good dress for an outdoor afternoon wedding at the end of September? [link] In the Assorted/Multi color? With a little sweater?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Oh I like that vw. It'll look great on you.

Nope. Maybe go with a navy sweater and shoes?

On of my dissertation supervisors was finally in, and I've just spent the whole afternoon going over material with her. I feel so much better about it all now it's amazing. She did manage to pass on the message from my main supervisor that I could have stopped the work I'm doing a month ago, but it's a little late in the day for that.

Pretty dress, vw. I have been staring into my closet in the hopes that something in the cocktail category (qualifier: that I want to wear, since I don't want to spend) will appear for a wedding I have in September.

We spent the weekend in Point Reyes Station with friends hiking, flying kites and playing many, many games of Rummikub.

Today is the first full day of classes, and we have someone here interviewing for a job. Busy day!
