You never smell the one that kills you

In other developments, I’d like to point out that I’m dying. It’s slow and methodical, and it’s too late for treatment. In fact, it’s so nasty that I wouldn’t wish this on several ex-bosses. Slow strangulation, gasping for breath, various discharges that point to severe reactions…and the best part is that I have photos of my murderers. Some people should be so lucky.

Whatever you do, don’t be complacent the way I was. Just rip those lungs out, get gill slits implanted, and spend the rest of the summer on the bottom of a swimming pool. *death rattle*

The right people at the right time

As mentioned last night, it’s all about taking care of friends. Half of the fun with assisting with the Kira’s Benefit silent auction was building a custom carnivorous plant arrangement just for the auction. The other half of the fun came in delivering it to its destination. The HoldFast crew accepted it, even with comments along the line of “There goes the neighborhood” and “We’re letting in all sorts of pond scum, aren’t we?” The absolute best part is that, in my case, they’re right.

Very seriously, the whole arrangement will be available on the Kira’s Benefit site for bidding as of the evening of April 17, and will be available for three days after that. If you want to see it in person, hop on down to HoldFast Tattoos and tell them I sent you. And if you’re in the mood for getting some ink done while you’re checking it out, I don’t blame you in the slightest. Might I recommend an appropriate design?
