Buffistas

You'll fight, and you'll shag, and you'll hate each other till it makes you quiver, but you'll never be friends.

Trust my rage

So, I joined this health club and last night I took all three kids. I picked this place because they have a *great* kids club. Daycare doesn't even really describe it. Anyway, Sammy doesn't really care for it, although he is adjusting, and I had to physically pull Frisco off me. Ellie just looked glum when I dropped her off. Frisco was sort of yelling about how he didn't want to stay.

I rushed through everything, not even washing my hands to get back to them. And then they didn't want to leave. And I was so mean for making them go and why couldn't they stay. They were mad half the ride home.

Yeah, I'm thrilled they like it and we will probably go again tonight, but sometimes being a parent is just unfair.

Always Anti-fascist!

Matilda will see one, someday. But it's not like a pageant...they just kind of...show up. But when I was a kid, I used to get sad if I missed, like, a hummingbird that other people saw, so I know how that feels.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I...kinda wanna make that into an art flick.

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

I mean, I wouldn't mention it to *her*, but it's sort of sweet in a melancholy sort of way.

It has a slightly Charlie Brown-ish air to it.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Oh, poor Matilda. Well, I'm sure she will see plenty of other rainbows in her life.

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

Even though it's chilly outside today, I walked a little further than I usually for lunch, and found a grilled cheese truck. SO worth it.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Mmm, grilled cheese.

I have an interview tomorrow that I'm supposed to dress in "business casual attire" for. What does that mean? That phrase has never applied to my life before.

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

Tom, can you tell them to drive up to 57th St? I would also like a grilled cheese for lunch.

Business casual to me says dressy but not a suit. (But if it's an interview, I'd probably wear a suit anyway.)

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

Matilda's Rainbow would be a lovely title.

Oh Consuela, that is so crazy making. I'm afraid my reaction would entirely unhelpful.

It's a very pleasant sunny 40deg day. Why do I have to spend it in a well equipped cave?
