The body was female and not dead. She survived. And she was a jumper. I am sure she is battered and bruised now. I hope she finds peace and strength, and finds her way back to living again soon. Let’s wish the anonymous jumper well, shall we?

Regarding belly dancing…
I don’t understand how I am supposed to walk, all slinky like, do snake arms AND undulate, all at the same time. That’s too many things for one human girl. It sounds like only three, but snake arms, in of themselves are like … SIX separate things. You don’t even want to know how many parts there are to undulating. I think our teacher is missing some bones.
Really really hard, belly dancing. But great fun. I tried not too laugh too much, because you are supposed to be all “oooo-oooo sexy-sexy at one with the earth and your feminine core.” But my feminine core had the giggles.
You know, gang, when you’re a superhero, you never know where the day will take you.
They pulled a dead body out of the water, outside our window this morning. I didn’t see it, but Paco did. On his birthday no less. He also witnessed the guy who jumped from the bridge onto our parking lot last year. Right outside the meeting room window. Yes, death of instantaneous on that one. And messy. He’s handling this one better. We have no evidence that the victim jumped from the bridge, could have just been a floater. KK passed on an interesting fact: if you cut the body’s belly open before you dump them in the water, it releases all the gasses, and they won’t float. Cool. Filing that grisly tidbit away for when I become a mystery writer.
Evildeb does not just cause pain in others, but also to herself. She has to get regular massages, to keep herself relaxed, or her head will literally pop off her neck from the tension. This means my calendar is full of notes regarding her comings and goings, and workings from home, due to her appointments.
jodi: so… are you working from home or not?
evildeb: on Wednesday afternoon I’m working from home
jodi: but you just cancelled it.
evildeb: no…I cancelled the original Monday apt
evildeb: just now
jodi: such a pain in the ass.
evildeb: indeed
jodi: i’m going to need an ass massage because of you.
evildeb: well, try to schedule it after work hours so you won’t have to put it tin the calendar
evildeb: your ass, or the apt
jodi: oh no. that is not fair.
evildeb: neither should be in my calendar
jodi: i am going to have it in the afternoon
evildeb: fine
jodi: because i want to work from home after my ass massage
evildeb: but leave your ass out of it
jodi: oh no, my ass is ALL OVER IT
