parsec
I know this! I know this!
It's the distance at which an object has parallax of one arc second.
Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

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.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

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...

I like sarameg's definition the best.
So far. It gets harder every day.I'd have already been reprimanded for it.
