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.

Yeah, Sophia. I have one, in fact. Fanny is a prostitute in the middle. Lots of sexing. And writers. And pirates.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Distract them with the YouTube and run away!

I told you that my mother's main reaction to reading Allyson's book was to say, So I shouldn't come out with you when you go smoke? Heh.

ION, I was trying on knee-length shorts today, and I think they worked! Not the actual pairs, but the concept. Am I nuts, or are bermuda shorts actually surprisingly wearable?

I am currently wearing knee length Gramicci shorts. YMMV.

sara, I put up another kidvid on YouTube for you and the folks.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I noticed that, when I was in New Orleans for a while, my NY/NJ accent would get stronger. Like, I'd somehow start having aspects that I'd never had before, like pronouncing "car" as "caw" or using "youse." (I think the "youse" may have been a reaction against people telling me not to address a group that contained women as "you guys.")

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Kidvids are good.

sarameg was in my dream last night. Sadly, I can't tell you why because I wasn't really sleeping

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Nuts. Hate 'em.

That's what I thought! But then, I don't know.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Resist the knee-length shorts, people! They're this year's bubble skirt!

I just found out that the new IKEA in Brooklyn is running 2 free shuttle buses to/from various subway stations! Score! (Of course, delivery costs as much as renting a Zipcar, but if I'm not buying furniture, free shuttle buses are made of win.)
