When you look back at this, in the three seconds it'll take you to turn to dust, I think you'll find the mistake was touching my stuff.

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

I have a bunch of boxes at work, I'll grab them on Friday if you need them.

Oh, that'd be excellent.

We still need to tour facilities, don't we? I'm sorry I flaked last weekend.

I am totally willing to tell you where to put things

I'm of a mind to show people the new apartment and the old apartment, and poll for organisation ideas.

The new person on ER, maybe, Rosalez?

Is he the one macking on Abby? I like him.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hey, I've gotten people up over the phone before. "ARE YOU UP? ARE YOU STANDING UP? ARE YOU OUT OF BED? STAND UP NOW. GO INTO THE OTHER ROOM. ARE YOU UP YET??"

Nope. Totally new guy, I think, ita. He's even short like my friend was. I still think of him as a good few inches shorter than me, though he has a couple on me now.

So, I watched Frontline's Company of Soldiers the other night. At this ER is an interesting comparison. Fiction vs reality.

. "ARE YOU UP? ARE YOU STANDING UP? ARE YOU OUT OF BED? STAND UP NOW. GO INTO THE OTHER ROOM. ARE YOU UP YET??"

I slept through banging pots and room invasion and screaming in college. Sure, I dreamed I was under attack and was terrified, but I slept through it.

Scared the shit out of my suitemates. At one point, they checked for a pulse. I don't recall that point.

They're all short! Teeny tiny pocket people! Tiny!

Also GET OUT OF BED!!!!

K is 5'8". Not tall, but slight. Or he was. But in school together, he was barely 5'2" for so long I got used to that.

Also? Still fucking snowing. And the plow just went by. Which means shovelling tomorrow.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

No problem on the flaking, ita. I got lots o' writing done.

My favorite bra's underwire snapped today, leaving me stabbed in the ribcage for my last two hours. I feel betrayed.

Right. I need to buy more new bras too. So much to do. Weekend of the 5th? I'm thinking this weekend is no time to be in the area.

Do people own these? And hang them in their homes where they can peer down on them in the dark?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Hey, I've gotten people up over the phone before. "ARE YOU UP? ARE YOU STANDING UP? ARE YOU OUT OF BED? STAND UP NOW. GO INTO THE OTHER ROOM. ARE YOU UP YET??"

Ah, you and Hec share that technique. And, having been rousted from bed via friendly-yet-persistent harangue, I can attest that it works, over the phone and everything.
