First rule of thievery: minimize evidence. IE, take the whole darned thing.
Come on out, River. The nice man wants to kidnap you.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
the irony isn't lost on me that I work for our justice department and no one is safe leaving anything remotely edible in the fridge for two minutes
I was just going to post about how when I was the receptionist at my old church the Youth Pastor would take anything that didn't have a name on it in our (teeny-tiny) fridge.
Transcript of actual conversation:
Me: Who took the bottle of water I put in here?
Him: Oh, I took that. I didn't know whose it was.
Me (not out loud, but Thinking it in SUCH a loud voice): Did you know it wasn't yours?
(Otherwise a really great guy, so I let it go. But still - Moron!)

Eventually Pete will learn that if I'm having an emotionally-fragile day, playing Twenty Questions about why I'm not being very talkative on the phone at work will lead to me being more upset, won't he? The whole reason I didn't want to talk about being upset is because it makes me MORE upset, and I'd really like to not start crying again.
Gaah. I'd like to declare a do-over on this day, please.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

I'll see what I can do about a 24-hour mindwipe.

(I'm sorry to be all 'me me memeeeeee' today. I am starting to think I need to make an appointment w/ my doctor to talk to him about how the emotionally-fragile days seem to be coming more and more frequently, because it's starting to make me worry.)

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Not that that's a bad idea if you feel the need, Jilli, but don't worry about it our account.

Aw, Jilli. I'm sorry. I feel your pain though.

Awww! Leif singing the ABC song? SO CUTE! Also v. smart.
I am very very confused by the yam/sweet potato distinction. Huh.
Welcome back, EpicTangent!
I feel all of your pain on the fridge thieves. I mean, it's one thing if you steal a little of my milk, or something, if I have a carton there, but...someone took my thing of rice and beans, sometime between 2pm (when I put it in) and 6pm (when I tried to eat it for dinner) the other week. Really pissed me off. I left a nasty note on the fridge, and everyone laughed at it. Hmph.

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