Because books.

I just skimmed, and I'm confused and skeeved. Someone's dog is eating him piece by piece?!

Also, I'm not even sure I could let those fish nibble my feet. ::shudders::

I saw our new house last night! It's still in the renovation stages, but it's going to be awesome. I can't believe we're actually moving, to somewhere we *want* to be this time.

I'm feeling a msbelle moment of shopping for shower curtains and rugs and curtains coming on.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm on the side of not so gross, like when it's better to leave maggots to eat the flesh in your rotting wound so the infection doesn't spread. It's sort of healthy, when the other option is spreading rot?

Yes! Exactly.

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

At least Fido isn't munching on placentas.

Bothers me so much less, assuming the placenta is no longer attached.

a) I don't want my dogs eating anything still attached to me.
b) I don't want my dogs eating my limbs
c) I don't want my dogs eating stuff that's rotting (because I'm a softie that way)

I'm not even sure I could let those fish nibble my feet. ::shudders::

I have a spot on my back that fish like to nibble. I don't know what's up with that. It tickles.

What is even happening?

Spidra, that blouse and skirt sound perfect for a funeral. I think the main thing where funeral etiquette is concerned is not to draw attention to oneself -- something neat and clean that falls on the somber side of the spectrum fits the bill.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

It was my mom's mom who died. My mom is often a control queen and I think in this case she's busying herself with a lot of little things like this because it keeps her mind off the things she'd rather not think about - the things she can't control.

I'm sure the separates will be okay. I just wanted to start sewing something for backup just in case. Things have been tense around here and I didn't want my parents to feel I was being insensitive and balky.

You know what's the opposite of gross? Rick Bayless' cooking. Om nom nom. It's a good day to work in my office.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I've been wanting to go to Xoco, since I can't afford Topolobampo or Frontera Grill, but haven't gotten down there yet. I want to try some soup, so maybe I'll wait until fall.

I went to Xoco when I was in Chicago for work last year. The pork belly vermicelli was AMAZING, and I got one of the sandwiches to go for my breakfast the next day and it was equally as yummy!
