"The fastest track in the world right now...cornering is important...articulation...helmet. It's important to remember that they're going really fast right now. Will it be enough?"
Now, this would be the perfect time for a swear word.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Someday I have to name something in a novel the Hallelujah slipstream.

Please make it something kinky and sexy.
You know...Like you!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Did anyone watch Kidnapped when it originally aired? I added it to my queue for the Linus Roache, but the Tim Hutton and Jeremy Sisto and Delroy Lindo are really more front and centre and great reasons to show up.
Dude, this show is crazy disturbing. I adore it so far.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Shit, I pulled a groin muscle leaning over to put Matilda in bed.
That's a too-apt summary for parenthood, really.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Isn't lots of classic lit available for free online?
TEA PARTY ONLY!
I counter with... I'm on a horse.

I'm thinking... the illegal and dangerous practice of riding your spaceship real close behind a bigger ship, and having sex while the quantum slipstream pulls you into hyperspace. It makes the orgasm seem to last forever. Of course, you're completely out of control of your vehicle and may end up splatted, but what's life without a few thrills?

Alibelle, I take back everything about the bra, good for you on using a giftcard.

There is. I think it is dailylit.com that will email you classic lit for free. I can't remember all the details, but I was reading a chapter a day of something that way until work got busy last year.
I was having weird dreams. Beyonce was telling me I needed to get into a relationship with this guy I went to college with. Jay-Z was there too, we were all filming a commercial together and J and B and I seemed to go way back. so odd.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Yesterday was a day for getting reading material. First went to the library and checked out my usual large stack of books. Then my monthly comic book shop trip. Wound it up by ordering a bunch of books from a mystery & SF bookstore that used to be bricks and mortar, but is now online only. (I realized that there were a couple of fantasy paperbacks coming out very soon I wanted, but I would not be at a SF con with book dealers until Memorial Day. I added a few mystery novels that had recently come out, and voila!)
