A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Oh, yay, Emmett!! That's just awesome. Good for him.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Thanks. I'm proud of him.

And it's not bad, usually. It's generally nothing. But when mine gets really annoyed, from allergies for me, it's this weird thing where there just isn't air like I expect there to be. It's kinda hard to breathe but it's not really what I assumed textbook asthma was.

I think that might be it - something that doesn't manifest except under extreme duress.

Something to talk about with the doctors.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Something to talk about with the doctors.

If you've got the insurance / coverage / vague medical things, it's an easy test actually. It was something I found out a long time ago in Phoenix during allergy testings of all things. It wasn't massively useful in my life until I moved to Portland. Now it's something I am really aware of and careful of, but also something that is relatively easily dealt with between medication and lifestyle awareness.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Congratulations to Emmett! That's extremely impressive!

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

Good work, Emmett. It's a great brand of torture.

I know no one's paying attention to me, but a purist portion of my brain gives myself demerits for genre and culture-mixing wardrobe. Two demerits tonight, ita. And where did my pencil go? I need my pencil!

I take it back. One demerit. Or I couldn't wear the Moroccan scarf with anything.

I seem to have prematurely run out of internet.

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

I seem to have prematurely run out of internet.

PostSecret is up.

And there's a new Hark, a Vagrant.

That'll give you, like, five minutes.

You're right, it did. ER going well so far although the nurse did just ask if I was single. He isn't.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Congrats to Emmett!

I was out actually late last night. Huh.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I slept late, for me--until after 8:00.

And now I am going to attempt making it out of the house, to Target, before the crowds get there.
