Are Komodo dragons Christians?

Okay. People. For fucks sake:



A.) It isn't a 'Christmas virgin birth' if in the next paragraph you discuss the science behind parthenogenesis.

B.) We all know anyone who can have sex with themselves and impregnate themselves would be excommunicated from the Catholic Church.

C.) Landry suggests that the eight baby Komodo dragons are all guaranteed to be born with the stigmata.

I too have been highly neglectful.
Sort of.

There are things I have been neglectful of this past year that I am tending to.
There are things that I have been paying far too much attention to in the year that I have been slowly, finger by finger, letting go of.
For the better.
I have always known that I think things through on my own and without much input from friends but until now I never realized just how quietly I process things.

thanks gormley for picking up my slack
and so incredibly beautifully

neglect.

I've been neglecting the divorce cactus. I can't tell if I'm doing it on purpose or just distracted... but I just looked over at it. It's giving up. I'm torn between watering it or letting it go. These two tiny little fingers in dirt stripped of everything it had for the poor fucker. As I was looking at it this morning I was reminded of a short story I read a long time ago... someone was writing about a friend receiving a bit of moon dust somehow - friend of an astronaut, I don't know... And she ate it. I wanted for a second to eat the two spiny little fingers. It seemed like a fitting end for them.

You can take the girl out of NYC... but....

I've just eaten overcooked pasta with questionable sauce and oddly herbed butter at the Marriott in ATL. It felt like McDonald's only with different ingredients. The bartender welcomed me back... and what I thought was a lame attempt to engage me in conversation between laughing at my book or sneering at the food was actually much more pathetic. He remembered me from my last trip here in October. My life is now a clever split of sad and perfect. Need to tip the scales.

today tried to kill me.

The first words out of my mouth this morning? "I'm too tired to kick Monday's ass..." Landry believes (no doubt correctly) that it was my first mistake. Sorry we've been so out of touch.

i havent been saying much about politics
and vitrol over politics is my specialty
so without saying too much about it
i will say this,
it feels ever so slightly (read sarcasm) like O.J. looking for the 'real' killer of Nicole and Ron.
OF COURSE there MUST be a mysterious person running around
why ELSE would cops fire so many rounds at a black man?

there is nothing in the world...

...I would give for this. Thanks for everything, baby.

high fives...

For my birthday? I got one of these. It was way smaller than I think we all expected... :). No four year old in her right mind would lust after that. Think 'sit and spins' instead.

Thanks C - for the flowers and the surprise birthday.
