Who wants to lend me a million and a half dollars so I can buy this house?
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Good stuff, Strega!
Those cookies are $40 a dozen. I was gonna buy some, but, seriously?
If you really cared about political advocacy.... you'd probably give that $40 to a candidate, huh.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I bet Romney made them raise the cookie prices in order to skew the results to favor him.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
So I have three things on my ita ! gives a fuck due diligence list (because if I don't jump through the right hoops, I don't deserve help, clearly):
- acupuncture (not covered, weekly, between 9 and 5)
- water therapy (not covered for the first $500, three times a week, between 11 and 2:30)
- electrodes in my neck
Well, will you look at that? Electrodes just jumped to the top of the "I can fit that into my schedule" list. Because 5 days off work for the test implantation is easier to schedule than 6 weeks of driving up to Culver City three times a week for a long-assed wet lunch.

Strega, thank you for looking that up for me. I don't know how effectively I can wield the law of "you can't make me undergo surgery instead of/prior to being given pain meds" but it does make a difference at least knowing the system isn't supposed to work that way. It feels a little bit better that I'm only being fucked over by people, not paper.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I'll be so glad when this election's over. I'm tired of hitting the mute button/turning off the radio whenever political ads show up. Most of the ads are aimed at Virginia voters, anyhow.(Except the pro/con Question 7 ones. A pox on both their lying houses.)

We've got a nasty local election around here that makes me grateful for the preset buttons on the car radio.
