Yeah, stomach, if you could stop trying to escape out my esophagus soon, that'd be great. Any time now.

Ugh, I really hope I'm not pregnant. But you only get morning sickness when you're in the family way, right? It's not all the time? Maybe I just have a really bad cold. I mean, my window doesn't close all the way....

Screw it, I'm going to the doctor's tomorrow. I don't care if it costs money; I want something for nausea and headaches, dammit!

Hi! You might remember me; I'm the woman who ordered mild boneless chicken wings? Yeah, the short one with the dark hair. The wings came quickly! That's a point in your favor. And you actually gave me an extra wing. Thank you very much for that, that was an nice and unexpected bonus. I'll give you two points for that one. You guys were courteous and polite, and the night would've been perfect had it ended there, before I took my first bite.

And immediately set my mouth on fire.

See, when I ask for "mild" sauce, I'm not expecting to have my mouth set on fire. And before you tell me that I'm just a wimp, please keep in mind that my friend, who ordered the "hot" sauce, tasted both and said they were the same kind of sauce, except my wings had twice as much sauce on them as his.

Other than that, though, 10/10, would not eat here again.

OHMIGOD OHMIGOD OHMIGOD!

Okay, okay, I'm just going to express my delight that I've gotten engaged, successfully moved upstate with a minimum of lost items, and installed wifi in my new apartment! But I could really do with being less nervous about getting fucking married tomorrow. I think I might puke. Seriously. Why am I so scared? It's not like I don't love him. It's not like I don't think our relationship is going to work out. So why does the thought of walking down that aisle tomorrow make me want to hurl myself out the window? (Not that that would do much damage; I'm on the first floor. Maybe if there was a fence post or something?)

Current Mood: anxious

It was a cold day in Billings, Montana. The weather alternated between twenty below zero and snot-freezing cold. Luckily, this story doesn’t take place in Billings, Montana. Who would want to hear about someone’s snot freezing her nose shut?

You there, in the back, put your hand down, you liar!

This story really takes place in New York City, New York, the city that never sleeps because it’s too damn full of coffeehouses. Well, and danger that keeps the citizens on their toes, and sometimes on each other’s toes. This danger why Marianne Thomas was currently tied up on the second floor of a condemned apartment building, and partly why Annie Won was going to find her. The main reason, of course, was that Annie was completely in love with Marianne’s brother, but that’s a story for another time.

Never mind, I’m going to tell it right now. It starts, as all great love stories do, with a girl's bikini top flying off as she dives into the pool. Only this was different, because she was diving after a boy who had fallen in. She had no way of knowing Derron Thomas had fallen in on purpose, just like he had no way of realizing he didn't know how to swim. Okay, fine, he did. But he would have done it anyway, and so would she. This was why, five years later, when a family of four was slaughtered, it wasn't Annie's.

What do you guys think? Constructive criticism?
