Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

That's amazing Brenda! And brave. (I once foolishly tried to go swimming in the ocean here in May and I thought my heart was going to stop.)

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

I am cold just reading that Brenda.

I moved some summer clothes storage out of my room, but haven't moved furniture yet.

PERKINS??

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

I just had a thought. If you want to put up information that's a little more secure than posting it right here, you can put it temporarily in your profile. Only registered users can see that.

Might be more trouble than it's worth, but it's a thought.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I just could have DIED. Free to be you and me and all that, but I don't know how many men shop for doggie sunglasses (or women for that matter - I am certainly not the type to get any pet of mine sunglasses), but I would venture a guess that 99.999999% of men who buy doggie sunglasses aged 50s-60s are not heterosexual.

Honestly, I could see the Mr. Mom-type husband of a powerful woman being the one do the cutesy stuff with family pets and so forth without necessarily calling his sexuality into question. But everyone I've ever seen or heard who ran one of those ex-gay clinics/ministries like Marcus set my gaydar off like an air raid siren—the only more certain indicator is marrying Liza Minelli! And since he makes his cash running one of those snake oil counseling centers while his wife vocally pushes for relegating us into second-class citizenry, I have zero compunctions about pointing out that the emperor has no clothes besides a feather boa and ruby slippers.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

I know Perkins has done some packing stuff, because she emailed me about some items to see if they wanted to come live with me.

I just infuriated Trininan, the eldest cat. She's very fuzzy, and hates being brushed, so she gets mats. I just her down and removed a few. Yowling ball of DEATH, poor fuzzwump. I've locked her in the bathroom with the catnip sausage in the hopes that she calms down enough that I don't have to give her Xanax.
