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

It puts the things...you know, the things...together in one place.

Of course, I follow all of 6 tumblrs, and half of those are all Tom Hardy all the time, so what do I know?

Ryan Reynolds is single!

And there's a kid named Booboo. He's kinda pretty. He should call me in a couple years.

serial:

For maybe the first time ever.

WTF? Which reminds me, I owe Colin a text. Oops.

I'm watching Jumper. I don't know why, and I don't know what's up with Samuel Jackson's hair.

Yeah, I barely use my cellphone. And just as a phone. Kat, K and lori can attest to my ineptitude. Not that I CAN'T learn, I just use it so rarely, and live such that I can keep using it so rarely, I don't try. It's deliberate luddititude. Hell, I reluctantly do IM either through google (just my brother) and kinda resent fb having it. Don't want to be that accessible.

eta: I judge me for being this way, not others for using the tech. The tech is cool! I just don't wanna play.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

You can turn off FB chat, sara. I'm very limited in IM - I don't mind the message part, but "instant" is too much pressure.

Because books.

I like texting now that I have a full keyboard on my phone. But I can't figure out to use the internet on my phone, and I'm honestly not that interested in learning. I'm on the web enough at home, I think.

I'm totally adding "luddititude" to my vocabulary, too.

Eh, there are enough people on fb I do like to chat with, it's just I feel tied sometimes and guilty about ignoring for a period of time because I'm not in the mood. Which is totally irrational, since everyone who would use that with me, knows me and I can say "done now" and it's fine. It's the concept. I chafe, in theory.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Ryan Reynolds is single!

Heh. I got a text alert earlier. Apparently, so is David Thewlis.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I don't even know what the associated verb is for tumblr.

I don't have a tumblr account, but please, come everyone and enjoy my earworm:

I'll tumbl for ya, I'll tumbl for ya!

sara = a total luddite.

So to also make yesterday the day of suck, we also had Grace's IEP that I think I may need to take to due process. FUCK. An OT looked at her and actually said that (1) her biggest problem was occular tracking (wha?) and that (2) she can't do anything about it because of the trach, because normally she puts kids in passive neck restraints to get them to track. Really? So that's it. Not her inability to play with toys at midline, her left side weakness? Her poor perception and sensory motor control? All of which OTs are supposed to deal with? This is going to get fucking ugly. I think I need a lawyer.

Also WRT the Ryan/Scarlett split, were they ever seen in public together? And how long and careful can the consideration be in a two year marriage?
