I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

What does it say about me that watching CM calms me down?

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

What does it say about me that watching CM calms me down?

That I'm not really the nasty one?

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

Oh jeez, Tom. "Worst ever" in a good way?

Right now, I just want to go smash things.

I suspect this is not the neutral-to-normal sensation it is when I experience it. I'm sorry, Tom. As worthless as that may be.

One of my oh-my-god-fucking-nasty! nightmares is rat swarms, and it prevents Ratatouille from being totally cute to me. Now I know when to avoid India.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Day after the funeral. My grandmother fell down. Good news is that it seems like nothing is broken.

Today was supposed to be the day we all relaxed.

Because books.

What does it say about me that watching CM calms me down?

That you're one of us?

I learned today it's a good thing I don't teach elementary school. One hour volunteering in Sara's classroom during "centers" and I was ready to blow. They do. not. shut. up.

Man just reading that made my scalp crawl. I can never see that movie!

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I totally read that as "Since I am cooking dope" and thought, "Scrapy! Step away from the cough medicine."

Oh thank, doG! Not just me.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

They do. not. shut. up.

My friend T was telling me how her aunt and uncle are coming into Milwaukee for the week, and on Wednesday they're sending down their three teenaged kids on the train to Chicago to spend the holiday weekend with T. This is the first time the kids have been on a train by themselves, and both their parents and T are a bit worried how they'll behave. I told her that they'll probably just chatter a lot on the train, but they're too old to be running up and down the aisle (they're all in high school).

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

I'm sorry, Tom. Wish I could make it better, somehow.

You too, Dana.
