I've been out of the abbey two days, I've beaten a lawman senseless, I've fallen in with criminals. I watched the captain shoot the man I swore to protect. And I'm not even sure if I think he was wrong.

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

I don't know what I could have done to deserve that.

Possibly he lurks.

I have ringtones for people that totally make me laugh before I answer. Who am I kidding? I rarely answer. But some do make me laugh.

I am tempted to search for ita !'s new car.

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

If Colin has time, I think taking him with you is a really good idea. I know LA is teeming with celebs, and he's niche, but still...it could help.

/shameless strategist.

My dad has always gone with me to pick out cars, because I know jack-shit, but now one of my BFF's partner's a mechanic and I know the next time I have to get a car, he is going with me, and I will dicker like a BITCH.

The best ploy, according to friends of mine who have sold cars is to just get up and start walking out if they are going for a hard sell, esp. if there's paperwork on the desk. Car salespeople will NOT let a potential sale walk out the door, if at all possible.

Pick a man, too, if they have male and female salespeople. A woman will not be nicer.

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

Colin is trying to get his house in a livable state, so I'm not going to pull him in until I absolutely have to. He's a crazy stressball right now.

I finally sat down and started customising my ringtones for maximum amusement, and now I feel I don't get called enough. It's a weird place to be in. It's all TV theme music. I might fire up the Bond themes too.

So what are people doing this weekend?

Tomorrow night is the Steampunk Exhibition Ball, where I am a celebrity judge for the "enticing ensemble" and "beard and moustache" categories.

Sunday night is the Emilie Autumn concert, which I'm going to with Plei!

I only have a custom ringtone for Dad. I want a custom ringtone for Pete, but haven't gotten around to looking for the Cave Johnson rant from Portal 2. I should assign the opening riff of "Vampires Will Never Hurt You" to Cass, but I'd never hear it.

CJ picked the theme from Jaws as his ring tone on my phone. K-Bug is Sweet Child of Mine. My phone quacks when KCD calls. Oh, and I set work calls to an old fashioned phone ring tone.

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

Fuck! The Pete & Pete reunion show is sold out!

I used to have the theme music to Profitt as a ringtone for a friend, and now I hate the guy, so the theme music is ruined for me. It made me irrationally hesitant about assigning songs to people afterwards. Took me years before I pointedly customised again.

Co-workers get the "We have the technology" speech from Six Million Dollar Man. Doing that was what got me off my duff setting up other people.

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

Fuck! The Pete & Pete reunion show is sold out!

That was quick. I think we've just hit the pinnacle of 90s nostalgia.
