Illyria: Wesley's dead. I'm feeling grief for him. I can't seem to control it. I wish to do more violence. Spike: Well, wishes just happen to be horses today.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

It would probably be closer to 60 hour weeks except that my boss has been out for the last three weeks with health issues and I've had to cover everything. It will probably be a month or more before he's done with chemo and radiation. I suspect it'll take some time for him to bounce back.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You know you're up too early when the news station is still playing the overnight music.... And our flight is delayed, so we aren't even leaving for another 20 minutes yet! Zzzzzz.

hip deep in pie

Have a great trip, Jesse.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Not that I'm bitterly jealous or anything, but have a great trip. :-)

It's a good thing that I don't have a valid passport, because I would be so tempted to dig into my Last Ditch Savings to go to Mexico because I could use the fun. I'm trying hard to content myself with my $30 computer stereo speakers, which ARE really terrific -- I can hear lyrics again! -- but much better for my unemployed budget.

Market soon. Once I finish spilling coffee down my face.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Soon I shall shower and dress, then start my errands.(bring car to Jiffy Lube, pick up subscriptions at comic book store, and if there's time, get next batch of on-hold books from library)

Now tagless for your comfort.

Party at ita's place!

Seriously glad you got the meds. I am happy to see the medical establishment doing right by you.

For some reason, my perfectly capable corporate attorney sister cannot purchase concert tickets online for herself and has asked me to do it for her. I get that I am the one that has three laptops open and a smart phone and a tablet at my fingertips and she's juggling an infant but come on!

Consider it a retainer for future legal advice, Cash?

Absolutely. She's proven her weight in gold. Plus, she was worried she wouldn't be able to get through online.

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

Emmett's taking the SATs right now, and I'm tucked away in a corner of Cafe Trieste in Berkeley putting away a quiche.

We got to Berkeley High (the test site) early so I got to see the gaggles of teens arriving all gangly and zitty and brace-faced and cute. For as much as teens are characterized as angsty and emo, they were all smiley and social and chattering.
