I found an old love letter I never finished.
It hurt to read it.

Of course, it hinges on me being able to afford said tattoo, but still. I’m kind of excited.

I never can figure out Macavity.
The show doesn’t seem to be able to decide whether he’s a Complete Monster or a sexy villain.
Also, why did he want to kidnap Old Deuteronomy? Are there any fanfics out there that have good theories about this?

I remember when I was heading off to Scotland on...
my mom saw the itinerary I sent her and emailed me:
“Saw you are passing through Crewe. Say hello to Skimbleshanks for me!”

Even though I realize that it, too, is racist. Although not as much so once you turn a certain racial slur into “Siamese”.

Y'know, "Memory" has sort of become this song that...
But you know what?
I still love it.
Unashamedly.
(I also love those random instrumental cat yowls that are going on in the background as Grizabella’s exiting after the first incarnation of that song.)

"The Moments of Happiness" is basically the Big...
It really doesn’t make any sense unless you sit and think about it for a little while, and it doesn’t have a whole lot of relevance to what’s going on in the plot. It seems like just a random moment for Deuteronomy to think aloud or something.

So, yeah, The Pekes and the Pollicles is racist.
Like, T.S. Eliot-era racist. Toward Chinese people.
And I have no idea how I didn’t realize this for years.

I wish I had eventually learned that double...
It might be the most badass thing in the show.
Also, we used to have intense discussion on the correct way to spell Rumpelteazer’s name. And whether Quaxo and Mistoffelees were the same character, and whether Sillabub and Jemima or Pouncival and Carbucketty were the same when you considered the stage shows.

I remember back when Janna and Boo Boo and I would watch this and build ships and character personalities out of the most random things.
Like, “OH HAHA BUSTOPHER JONES LOOKS STRAIGHT AT CORICOPAT WHEN HE SAYS GAY IN THIS SONG SO HE MUST BE GAY LOL.”
Or, “OK WELL CLEARLY BOMBALURINA AND POUNCIVAL ARE TOGETHER DESPITE OVERWHELMING EVIDENCE TO THE CONTRARY BECAUSE SHE RUBBED HIS...

I am going home tomorrow and a large part of me is...
Maybe it’s just my anxiety, but I’ve never been able to fully convince myself that my group of friends isn’t completely falling apart in my absence. The minute I hear about anyone having even a little argument, I panic, even if it’s something completely minor, and lately there’s been a lot of that. And then I want to try and fix everything, but I can’t because...

I have had the weirdest mood swings today.
First I was watching Jim and Pam on The Office and got all sad because I’m not in love with anyone and I miss that. (And as far as I know, no one is in love with me either, which doesn’t help.)
Then I went to see Tintin [tangent: FUCKING AWESOME] with Janna and Paul and Linus and Cael, and got really excited and hyper because the movie was...
The Muppet Christmas Carol is just fucking...
It sticks close to the original book where it matters most (including many direct quotes courtesy of Gonzo/Dickens), has fantastic comedic timing that doesn’t interfere with the darker/sadder moments of the story, and plays with the fourth wall in a way that only the Muppets can do. The music is wonderful and Michael Caine is the perfect Scrooge.
My family has been watching this movie at...

So, I've been having to open at work a lot...
And as much as it sucks armadillo ass to get up in time to be at work at 6:45 am, I am beginning to think the morning meetings are worse.
Basically, we all assemble before the store opens to discuss sales goals, current promotions, etc. But the last few times I’ve opened, the store manager has given the same spiel, which basically amounts to:
- The holidays are the only time men ever shop...

“It’s Okay to be Neither,” By Melissa Bollow Tempel
Alie arrived at our 1st-grade classroom wearing a sweatshirt with a hood. I asked her to take off her hood, and she refused. I thought she was just being difficult and ignored it. After breakfast we got in line for art, and I noticed that she still had not removed her hood. When we arrived at the art room, I said:...
