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.

Ooh, now I want dim sum. I wonder if I can talk Pete into going sometime soon.

Today's hunting & gathering among the yard sales was epic. A display shelf for the storage room (once I paint it pink), an antique crystal perfume decanter, an antique silhouette in a frame, hand-tatted lace collars, some new trashy vampire books, and two different pairs of Victorian-ish gothy boots.

It's very weird to wake up to a coworker's voice on the radio (Speaking of Faith.)

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I am so worried about Mr. Kitty. Get better, MK!

Part of one of my dreams last night was that I somehow said I would work a couple of nights at a organic/co-op grocery store. And then Liza Minelli came to see me, because the clientele was so upscale she wanted to make sure I knew what I was gettng into. And to train me before I got there

I dreamed I was moving to New Orleans and I was all lost and had nobody to help me move, and then I though, "Wait, Nora!" It was such a relief.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I hope Mr. Kitty gets better soon, sara.

Dude, where is everyone today?

I have done triage on the end-of-school paperwork tsunami, processed the gallon of strawberries we picked yesterday, and mopped the kitchen floor. Also sighted the coyote in our yard. Do I know how to party or what?

Sara, hoping the best for Mr. Kitty.

It's a long weekend, so I am at my folks place. I slept at least 10 hours last night. It was great.

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

I decided I was totally sick of being good budget wise and of eating at home, so I am at Mimi's finishing breakfast, and about to go to Target.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have got to get off the couch. At least to deal with dishes and laundry.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

My face is still swollen (post oral surgery). Yesterday I didn't leave the house and was in a pain med haze. Today, I've already showered, dressed, vacuumed, done laundry, and am contemplating the great outdoors.
