I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

juliana is, like, 4.

You know, I can now see it.

Pffft. You're just jealous 'cuz I can run longer than y'all.

Which I hear is authentic: proper chai is syrupy.

Huh. I've had supposedly-authentic that is indeed sweet, but also so spicy that it will knock your socks off. I love it.

edit: sarameg is correct - I'm a mere 10 days or so behind her. I sure as hell don't feel young. I'm constantly surprised that I'm not in my 30s yet.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

What goes into a Starbucks chai latte? Well, how much of what? I will be ordering one in about 20 minutes, and the barista is a flake.

IIRC, it's 1 part chai mix (liquid, not powder), and 2 parts steamed milk. Unless they've changed it. There should be a how-to book somewhere in the back, if not right behind the bar, which contains all the Starbucks drink recipes.

I think it's juliana, Jessica, and Shrift who always freak me out with how much younger they are than me.

My mother always says that I was born with a mental age of 47, so really, I'm much older than you.

I can't even.

Dude, I've been like that since I hit 21. Most times I'm asked, I have to remember what year I was born in, remember what year and month it is now, and do the math.

I totally do this, except I have to ask what year it is because I don't really pay attention. My mental age changes so slooowly, like 5 to 1.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Pffft. You're just jealous 'cuz I can run longer than y'all.

Woman, there are inanimate objects that can run longer than I can. Couches, TVs, forks!

juliana is me. I've only had Starbuck's chai latte once (Ireland has managed to escape the Attack of the Franchise so far) and I thought it was too watery.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I've hit that "I'm in my mid-thirties and I'll be damned if I can remember how old I am," stage.

I, too, am thirty-umm. Most days, I don't bother to calculate the umm part.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

There was a mental age quiz floating around recently. I skewed older than everyone I know. I was surprised that Bob was older than twelve.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

No, it's a liquid mix.

That might be the problem. She used a powder, and 12oz of milk.

You're just jealous 'cuz I can run longer than y'all.

Baby Frances can run longer than me. I wouldn't use it as a boasting point.

I've been in my late thirties a long time. Seven years, give or take. It's quite fun.

I was surprised that Bob was older than twelve.

That's about how old I'd expect to test on that thing.
