Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

parsec

I know this! I know this!

It's the distance at which an object has parallax of one arc second.

I don't understand why people have kept the 5 inch floppies for so long, and are jsut giving them to me to deal with now. I can't read them.

Where do you come from? Where do you go? What is your scene, baby? We just gotta know.

Parsec

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Huh. In'eresting. Thanks.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

OMG interview in like three minutes freaking has commenced.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Interview~ma, Dana!

When I went looking fro a definition of a parsec, I found "scienceworld.wolfram.com". I'm easily amused.

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

Stop freaking, Dana. Think of porn, and take deep breaths.

So I'll just cancel that hotel room I booked this morning, hmm?

I intended that to be a sympathetic bitter-fest, but perhaps I was too terse. Was not mocking. Was wishing that I could have a day free of obligation right along with you.

Of course, meteorologists have upgraded the storm to 12 inches, so I may get that day tomorrow...

What is even happening?

I like sarameg's definition the best.

So far. It gets harder every day.
I'd have already been reprimanded for it.

I like sarameg's definition the best.

But do you understand it?
