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.

I have a cast iron treadle singer sewing machine and am on the third floor. I would hire movers for that alone!

I'm just wondering how much stuff I can get rid of permanently. And how damned many tchotkes and books I have (which will not be gotten rid of.) And then all the stuff on my walls. And how much I hate being packed in any form and that realistically, once I start packing, I will by necessity be packed for a good long while, even after I move. Uhg.

Even though I didn't watch much of the Amazing Race last year, wasn't that the pink goth couple in the auction scene on Bones ?

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

Even though I watch neither, I think I read that was true, sarameg.

Michelle Obama hosted Sweet Honey in the Rock at the White House for a bunch of schoolkids and kids of WH staff. [link] and [link] I like this First Family.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

msbelle's packing skillz saved my ass the last time I moved.

srsly. I love finding boxes and free packing supplies - I am huge with the scavenging - and I love packing up a house. I also love unpacking, but tire of it faster.

You are nuts. I love you, but you are crazy.

(and when I get a date, you are welcome down here! I may leave the state, but..)

I love packing too! It's an awesome exercise in puzzle solving, sorting (which I have a passion for) and simplifying/cleaning up. Like goes with like! Toss out the dysfunctional and irrelevant. Bring order out of chaos.

That's my porn.
