Oh, damn, sara.
I saw a guy who looked a hell of a lot like Alan Tudyk today. Could even have been him. I considered yelling "Alan!" to see what'd happen, but, you know, decided to skip it.
Zoe: What's that, sir? Mal: Freedom, is what. Zoe: No, I meant what's that? Mal: Oh. Yeah. Just step around it. I think something must've been living in here.

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

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I've used uncooked hot wheat cereal and dog kibble, both of which seem to work.

My mom had to be the one to call and tell him. I'm sure it hit town like a storm, because it's the first local casualty. I want to call my brother just to say sorry to hear the news, but I know him well enough. He's going to have to get over being filthy mad before he wants to even mention it. If he were still in Texas, he'd be able to go be mad with his army friends who also knew Joe. But he's not. At least he has PJ. She also knew him.
The mice at work got into an old luna bar I'd forgotten was in my desk. Chewed through the wrapping for that, they did. The peanut butter one.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Happy Victor day!!
Just got back from our company's Consumer Advisory Board meeting. The board has both blind and deaf members and I had to book interpreters and reporters and arrange for dinner for 25 in our conference room, which meant renting linens and china and picking a menu and bringing in food from four different places, plus breakfast and lunch for everyone today. It was a shitload of work but it all went really well and the board applauded me at the end. The owner of the company told me I was the best, so yay me even though I am so tired I can barely move. move.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Robin, having spent three years arranging board meetings and all the food/accommodations that go with them, I know exactly how exhausted you are. Go you. I'm glad they recognized your work.
Not many people understand how much goes into making sure that many people have meals and the wherewithal to do what needs to be done. They just show up and *poof* the meeting fairies have taken care of everything.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Yeah, I know the admins who put together my company's sales conferences, and they're a bullet-proof bunch indeed. My group gives their needs and requests high priority because we know they'll need all the help we can give them, and be very grateful for it, too.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Oh flea, she's such a little toddler now! And she's still just as adorable as when she was a baby (and probably about 100 times more fun, if Franny is anything to go by).
