I have laundry to put away too. Woes.
Me too. It's making me not want to clean the bedroom, even though that's the last room left to do
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.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I don't know why this is so difficult for me. Every time I do laundry I swear, this time I'm going to put it away right away. It takes, like, fifteen minutes. And yet? I have successfully done a couple of hours of data entry for work in procrastinating the laundry. Ridiculous.

Smart people can be stupid too
Hi everyone! I hope this is ok (coming from a long time lurker with maybe 10 posts to my name) please ignore if not.
I'm trying to choose a name for a (hopefully) soon to be mine cat and thought it might be a particularly Buffista friendly task.
She is a 2 year old medium-haired tortoiseshell (mostly shades of grey) with a sort of... beastly look? My DH and I have been brainstorming (mostly Lovecraftian Erdrich horror type names so far, with a couple of muppet names thrown in for good measure) but we haven't come up with anything yet.
Does anyone want to play Name That Cat?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I would be tempted to go with Beasty or Beastly.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Aw, I like tortoiseshells. The last one I (sort of) had we called Patches after the zombie cat on Buffy.
Nice to see you, Helena

Hi Helena. How about Halfr Graybeard?

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

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.

That's a lot to live up to!

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Is this the point where I mention that I warned sarameg not to name her cat Loki?

And I concurred. The words "tempting fate" were almost certainly used.
