Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

oh msbelle, you truly are wonderful.

I am wasting time in the most inexplicable of ways. Reading--I kid you not--a Snarry fic with an mpreg storyline, written by an old grad school friend of mine who is now a tenured professor. eep.

not your mom's socks.

I'm just going to rest my brain in here for a moment. Someone post links to nice things?

I was reading Mark Re-Reads Harry Potter Chamber of Secrets. He was talking about how delighted he was at the final feast when Slytherin had their win taken away. I was horrified at that part and I nearly threw the book across the room, and the takeaway thought I had was "Favoritism is great when it's for the people you like." Yeah, OK, shout out to the Trio for saving the day, sure, but to set up everything for Slytherin, than yank it away and dance in their faces? Not done.

And I keep being surprised at how shocked Mark is when grown-ups are flawed and let people down. I wonder if it's a function of me being twice his age and jaded, or am I just that cynical anymore?

hip deep in pie

This afternoon I ate an enormous croissant and then went for a long walk to balance it out. I saw a Newfoundland Dog on my walk and was very tempted to dognap.

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

I am accomplishing nothing today so far. Watching reruns of Destination Truth and reading fanfic I've read before. At least the eggs I'm about to eat are new.

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

Perkins? do you need direction today?

Yes! but not until later this afternoon. This morning has been errands and cleaning and some shredding, and Juliana is showing up soon for a home depot run and then I/we come back here to pack.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

You have to have several corgis together, like the Queen, right??

Yes! Because then in an emergency they can combine into the one mega-corgi, CORGITRON.

Shredded! Phew.
