Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Oy. I generally pay my credit card bill online. It was due today. I swear I paid it last night. But now, my checking account doesn't reflect it, and the credit card website says that I logged in last night, but has my last payment as last month. Do I assume that it's just taking a while to go through and wait until tomorrow, or do I pay it again and risk paying double and having something bounce? (And actually, I just realized that it'll count either tonight or tomorrow as "late," so I think I'll wait. Or should I do something else?)

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

The thing I hate about communion wafers is that they are so thin and dry they tend to stick to the roof of your mouth. Then all you can do is think, "Shit, I have Jesus stuck to the roof of my mouth!"

Call customer service? They might waive the late fee.

Thanks, Beverly. It's funny that the fictional thing, that the actors had to describe using a real thing, now explains what that real thing is.

My eyes are closing. I'm off to home (one question first draft finished. I'm way behind, but can't move forward without sleeping in between). Night, everybody!

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Shortbread is a cookie made of butter, flour and sugar. It's very "short," i.e., it has a high proportion of shortening to flour.

Hardtack is similar to matzos.

Lembas is made by elves, and is very nutritious and lasts forever.

Does Shortbread = Short'nin' bread?

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

Hil, totally call.

Yeah, call 'em, Hil. I've straightened out many a credit card confusion that way (including when the campus sat on a bucket of outgoing mail. For a month.)

I might hate tonight's OC.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

-t, yes! Exactly.
