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

My tongue likes hot food. My lips, face, fingers HATE it -- and the hate is increasing over time. So I have to be very careful to place it neatly inside my mouth, without lip contact.

It's a bit annoying.

No, it's very annoying.

I'm still impressed with your pro-activeness.

I'm using it like a mental stickynote, since my concept of time apparently is completely wacked. Also, this gives me lead time in case I need to, say, watch more West Wing, for example. Edit: Also, feel free to list as many things as you want, as I am very tired of Not Writing, and may not stop at one.

Also, we need to figure out a time to chat or something, because we haven't talked in weeks and that sucks.

I know! The universe conspires against us.

People are being stupid and annoying and asking me questions that they are supposed to have the answers to.

Also, it looks like another 10% staff cut in the near future. Whee.

Maybe they'll cut the stupid and annoying people.

I need to work out how to actually pack a lunch that will fill me up. Well, lunch and second breakfast. The two chocolate cupcakes, raspberry La Creme and leftover Chinese are already obviously not enough. It's clear that there are raspberry shortbread cookies and ginger ale in my future.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Okay, now I need a chocolate cupcake. Thanks a lot.

(The lobby is flooded! It's kind of fun, actually. If it's still flooded when it's time to go home, it'll be less so. Also if my ceiling has collapsed again.)

Well, there's always the option that I won't be around to deal with the stupid and annoying people.

Our wings are not tired.

You know you live in the desert when the entire office goes to look out the window at Real Rain.

One of our previous droughts we had been on strict water restrictions. The first time it rained in months we ran out to back the filthy car out of the garage to see that all of the neighbors were doing the same thing.

Hi all!

Mmmm hot food.

Coding and Sleeping

I got tired of not being able to see my program's output while I was logging (on Windows, go ahead and laugh UNIX users) it so I wrote a bitty utility to do this for me, if anyone wants a copy let me know.
