If your best abilities are the skills possessed by hired help, you will end up as hired help or married to a poor man who can not afford hired help
That does seem to be what she is saying.

I know a dancer who balances up to 6 swords while belly dancing, so a book isn't that big of a deal. That's what she started with. She also does flaming swords while dancing. I don't think she balances them on her head, but I've never seen her act after she passed her certification to use fire. I was not aware that there is a national belly dancing federation that has tests and everything for professional dancers.

I see what you did there.

10 minutes ago, Darth Fluffy said:'You're not wrong' is not the same thing as 'You are correct'
That's a pretty subtle difference there. Also depends on the speaker and their choice of idiom.

Different kind of batty. This kind that has me on drugs and disability is likely genetic, not environmental.

This differs from me, who is normally wrong about predictions of EGS stuff. I still hold that the dragon immortal wasn't Voltaire, and nothing has indicated that he is. That's about my only more or less correct guess in years.

Fuck my life. Migraine aura phase. Going to go to the darker room and pout. So much for working on projects.

Did DS say someplace that I missed that the next story comic will be delayed, or are you basing that on their history of skipping Friday story strips of late?

I'm guessing the questions confessions, and explanations will start on Monday. Perhaps in another flashback story.
I suspect it will not be a flashback, but Hope talking about being an immortal and that her “reset” wasn't normal. Plus, explaining she has no clue about modern life, other than playing Not-Magic The Gathering, which you have to admit, is a pretty niche knowledge set.

/me Meh, not really all that good. Have a snowflake on your page.

2 hours ago, Darth Fluffy said:She sounds like a lovely woman (me, thinking about my ex, who should have been ex much earlier . . .)
She actually was OK, apart from her issue with dealing with teens long term (fine for a week or so, more than that, and she got twitchy) and an obsession with University of Oklahoma football which was weird, she didn't go there. In later years, she really got into “The Real Housewives of X” series on Bravo. I was living with her at that time, and just listening to them drove me batty.

“The Human got up really early today and seems much more “chipper” than normal. He needs help on the desk, of course” - Explorer the Cat.

Hm. Looks like my idea that Hope's home was an unused store is way wrong. Also, I'm amused that Hope didn't know if she had to do the voice and eyes thing to make her vow. I wonder if the “not use their home as a trap” thing is a left over from the old laws and traditions, or if it's from the new ones.

Oh, not arguing that. Of course, Mom sent me off to live with my grandmother for 7th-9th grades. Mom didn't do well with teenagers. Only my middle brother managed to avoid being sent either to other family members or boarding school. She meant well, but like I said, didn't do well with teens.

This is why I was in the elementary school band in the 6th grade, even though I have no sense of rhythm and am tone-deaf. My mother liked marching band, therefore all her children will. Only my middle brother ended up doing band all the way to collage. Not that I'm bitter, it took me out of science class, which I did, in fact, love.

I just sneezed and started a noise bleed. Seems that 35% humidity is enough to dry up my noise. Wonderful.

Adding more mushrooms to mushroom soup is always a good idea. I haven't found a commercial version, yet, that has really enough mushrooms.

1 hour ago, Darth Fluffy said:I'm not sure I still have one. Have not seen it in years. Not quite cold enough to need it.
We had 22 degrees F at 9AM today. I was in a meeting with folks from DC, they had 11 degrees F.
According to my weather thing on my status bar, it's 10.6 right now. Weather Underground says 9. Either way, it's cold.

I'm not sure which classic rocker is more impressive outside of music, Dickinson or May

“I'm a little grumpy. It got cold last night, and The Human didn't get out the heat box until almost dawn. I'm going to hang out on the butt warmer for a while, then help The Human on the desk.” - Explorer the Cat.

At 1 degree (-8 with wind chill), it got cold enough that I needed the space heater.

It just dawned on me. All the teens in this arc have an ongoing relationship with “prince” Elliot. It's possible, however unlikely, that he chooses ALL of them.
