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.

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

I've had my tongue get sore because of an allergic reaction before. Not swell, but have spots that feel burnt on them. I think I stopped eating whatever it was and started taking magnesium.

That happens to me too - feeling like there are sore places on the sides of my tongue. I've never figured out the culprit. Maybe I should take extra magnesium.

What is thrush, Doctor Hec?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Its a yeast infection in your throat!

The NYT just emailed me that Rahm won.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Speaking of which, did y'all see that HPV is the new leading cause of oral cancers, taking over from tobacco??

Edit: Not speaking of Rahm, speaking of throat infections that may be found elsewhere.

Did any other Bay Area folks get a $25 prepaid debit card from PG&E recently? It's so bizarre (and also more than my monthly utility bill, so yay?).

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I wish! You must have reduced your energy bill by 20% or whatever.

Ah, I think it's related to the San Bruno explosion. It's to thank customers in SF and SM counties for conserving gas when "some gas pipelines were unavailable or undergoing repair."
