I'm a vision of hotliness, and how weird is that? Mystical comas. You know, if you can stand the horror of a higher power hijacking your mind and body so that it can give birth to itself, I really recommend 'em.

Eek! Raw meat!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Of course, the times when I switch the ringer off and forget to switch it back on are only my fault.

Yeah, I do that too. Eh.

Call it carpaccio, think of it like (extra) rare roast beef, and it's not so bad.

I always have my phone on vibrate, so if I can't hear it, chances are I'll notice my bum buzzing.

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

I always have my phone on vibrate, so if I can't hear it, chances are I'll notice my bum buzzing.

People using their cellphones as primary lines is becoming more and more popular. But my land line rings loudly, even if it were just the one unit (I have three, all told), and has a red flashing light that means I can tell if I have messages from really far away.

My cellphone, on the other hand, was purchased explicitly for its smallness, so it's tucked in the side pocket of my main bag, where I can't feel it vibrate unless it's on my lap (quick break for Wonderfalls flash), and I just about never remember to check messages unless I'm plugging it in to recharge.

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

Mine warbles at me in a different tone than a regular ring if I have messages.

When it's ringing for the next call, or does it burp intermittently until it gets your attention?

oh, how I hate that. at my old job, the guy in the office next to mine never answered his cell phone/checked his messages/took his phone with him. one day, he left it in his office on "loud" and it blurped every 30 seconds with a message. Which I could hear. In my office with the door closed. I finally made the janitor let me into his office so that I could turn it off. I was kind enough to leave a note.

Ah, see I keep mine in my trousers pocket more or less constantly. I've learned from years of being complained at about missing calls and not replying to messages.

How wee is your phone, Jars? Mine'd either be uncomfortable or broken.

Dumber idea than spinning that guy (Jesse?) off of GG:

Now you knew this would happen the minute we learned Kaitlin had been shipped off to boarding school on "The O.C." In a classic soap opera move, a spin-off series next season will follow Kaitlin's adventures in boarding school.
