So am I in a jam now? 

I figured on either that or a riff on "jarring". You're not putting much effort in.

I'm not.  My heart's just not in it, I suppose.  I think it got ripped out about thirty pages ago. Possible in another thread.  I've lost my mind around here somewhere too.

That might have been what was stuck in my teeth.

Gristly and cold?  sounds about right

*nibbles on your integrity*

There's a first

Well I mean there's just so little of it, hardly enough for a mouse to starve on.

Not dead yet.

 

Trying to get the new Father's Day toy to run.

Bye for now,

Love,

Not dead yet.

On vacation.

Getting cost/timing for Shedd aquarium in Chicago.

Not free.

Can't afford the gas let alone a motel room, meals, admission, etc.

Might do it anyway.

Don't know yet.

Something about you bleeding to death. Only important part, really.

(Discarded pun about steps)  Surely the broken bones had to add something to the whole piece?

Actually I'd say the specific math here would be subtraction; organs, bone chips, whatever falls out on the way down.

It's like a journey of discovery!  What will break next?

 

Stay tuned Kiddies!

Why yes, now that you mention it, they are bringing back The Magic School Bus.

Any word on how they'll do it?  3-d high res animation, or in the fashion of the books and the old show?

CGI. Suppose I can't blame them, as I believe it's faster than the 10-month turnaround on traditional animation.

Yeah.  And as long as the shows are just as well done, I think it'll be fine.  Each new medium brings its own strengths and drawbacks, of course.

 

 

Someone was telling me a ivy league school had found out they actually had a book bound in human skin.  That's surely an odd medium to work with. 

Speaking of using the human body for arts and crafts, did you ever check out that church I linked you to?

Yes.  And I get a Marriott discount as an Employee, so I was also looking at nearby hotels that I can stay at and see it in person

 

It was oddly beautiful.  Macabre, of course

That last bit pretty much sums up a proper goth way of looking at the world.

It's not an inaccurate way of looking at the world.  

Better that goth than the variant consisting of overprivileged white kids complaining about how terrible their lives are. I think they've moved on to calling that emo now, though. Of course, some people call emo on anything where someone is unhappy, so I guess there's no winning and everyone should be eaten by giant squid.

Not lantern fish?
