On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Suzi, I do. Send me the address; profile addy is good. I'll mail it tomorrow.

For ita, a piece on Graciella Casillas.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

This seems like the appropriate time to mention Unsuck It!.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

My favorite take is from Calvin and Hobbes: Verbing weirds language.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ha ha! That site doesn't even know solutioning. ita's work is the worst.

Because books.

"Solutioning" also reminds me of "A Little Less Conversation":

"All this aggravation ain't satisfactioning me..."

Was poking around the TV listings for tonight and saw a broadcast on PBS of one of the Jeremy Brett Holmes, and Jude Law is in it. That version of Holmes is almost like the old Twilight Zone, but with British actors that you recognize later.

Is it wrong that I don't really care that the (alleged) craigslist killer killed himself?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Turkey lentil chili is simmering on stove, blue cheese scallion biscuits are in the oven. I am a fucking domestic goddess.

Someone I know is selling her Lady Ophelia Fluevogs (size 10) to pay bills: [link]

I don't know if they're still up for grabs, but I figured it would be relevant to Buffista interests.
