Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I just made a dentist appointment, after about 3 or 4 years.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Yay, Scola!!!

I've got a good recommendation letter for you:

Dear Employer:

Hire JZ right now, damnit!

Love, Us

Short and simple, yes?

Now I come up with my own designs.

I wish I could be original, but I do cross-stitch because I'm only good at following an exceedingly detailed pattern. Original art of any sort and me are unmixy things. The only thing I ever made that I thought looked good and interesting was the steamer-trunk box I made for my hs ceramics class. The Medusa bust I attempted for the coils project was a complete failure (the snakes refused to stick to her head).

Love that tassel you linked to--beautiful!!

I called to get my dryer repaired! Only took a couple of months!

Also sent an email to a mortgage broker a friend recommended to ask about a refi.

Now I just need to call and get a new key for my mailbox.

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

Right now, just doing my job is enough of an onerous task for me.

Man. I can't spare the brain space for it for a few weeks, but after the holiday whirlwind dissipates and I clean up its debris, I really ought to start job-hunting for serious. I have little hope, but I need to try.

Oh, I'm not doing that.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

"I'm above average in all the sciences. Except perhaps social."

Huh.

Speaking of That's What She Said, the UCLA Department of Classics Grad Students held a conference titled that this weekend: [link]

The subtitle was The Construction and Expression of Women's Voices in Antiquity. I am torn between, "Cute, and you pulled one over on the probably antediluvian faculty member supervising you," and "I do not think that means what you think it does."

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

Oh, I'm not doing that.

MY SISTAH!
