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

Or perhaps not so much slow things down as provide an example on hand that they can object to the system and make themselves heard in a peaceful manner.

However, if they slow things down, they have done so in a highly inconsiderate manner. Flying is stressful and the screening process is bad enough. Your objections to it shouldn't lengthen it for other people. That's just fuckery, sacrificing their experience for your message.

Tom, I'm sorry therapy was so rough for you. I hope good comes of it. Treat yourself gently.

Healing-ma to you grandmother, Dana. What awful timing.

msbelle, grrrr! I want to wave a stress-reducing wand over your.

tiggy, my tumblr is owltlet.tumblr.com I would also love to check out people's tumblrs.

My onerous task for the day was calling to try to get a postponement for a court date for this ticket I got last week; Dan has the car, and we won't get paid till the 30th. The lady said the judge would just send me a letter with a 2nd appearance on Jan. 4, and I would have to pay a $10 fine. No warrant or anything.

Onerous task outcome: Positive.

I had an interview today, too. Cross your fingers for me.

Oh and leaves. I already shovelled a bunch that were in the street into a pile. Going to be doing several houses worth, since there's a vacant, a ne'er do well and an out of town. And I have to pay my next door neighbor back for last weekend. But it won't be just me. A couple other neighbors will be pitching in.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Okay. But that's pretty much the argument that gets pulled out against every strike ever. The tools that are available at this end of the food chain aren't always the nice and easy ones.

CSULB Masters of Fine Arts student puts together an exhibit on the Art of Procrastination.

A true exhibit to the art of procrastination would be a mostly empty room with some blank canvases; a few frames leaning against the wall; and a large pile of dirty coffee cups, doughnut boxes and pizza boxes.

I don't support every strike. I evaluate each strike on a case by case basis. I've evaluated this public resistance, and I think it's shit and I don't want it to inconvenience me because I think it's going to be highly ineffective.

Grey's Anatomy: Shonda Rhimes can't seriously be calling Callie a lesbian. But I read she was. Is English/the imagination that limited?
