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.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

ooooh, the emergency broadcast system just came on and a scary robotic voice warned of flash floods!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

This is what PZ Myers has to say about her:

Ken Cope, a regular commenter here (come on, you guys all know him) sent along some cephalopodian artwork a friend of his does. After browsing a bit, it was sinking in: Ken is friends with an animation artist and roller derby star, one who wins awards for most penalties in a season no less, and who paints toilet seats for fun. How cool is that?

Check out this lovely bit of toilet seat art: [link]

Worksafe, but perhaps borderline for the paranoid....

I heard that too! It was very exciting. I dropped Noah off at Lori's so she could take him to day care (yes. That is our routine as insane as it is). There was a TON of flooding around her place. The drainage there sucks.

Also, I too am too distracted to work. I keep wondering if naming Noah as I did was a bad thing to do in an El Nino year.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You guys should all stay home!!

I wish I had stayed home.

Me too. And yet here I am. Go figure.

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

I haven't left yet! I could stay home.

Except I'm supposed to go have lunch with my boss today.

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

I did some work that needed doing. WHOOT!

Noah's naming is a good thing.

My work folk have to make a terminal change on an international flight with only 1 hour layover. I am printing out maps of the airport for them. I worry though. I really don't want them stranded.

Well, they just have to deal with flooding and mud sliding. You New York types are always getting attacked by giant monsters.
