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

I'm a Barbie girl, in a Barbie world
Life in plastic, it's fantastic!
You can brush my hair, undress me everywhere
Imagination, life is your creation

In unrelated news, I have a migraine, and am considering not returning to the office from lunch. The almost two hour confab with boss didn't help.

Ouch.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Ow, ita. I vote you go home.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

''You don't know the history of psychiatry. I do,''

I think it is now legitimate to quiz Tom Cruise on obscure points of psychopharmacology at any given moment.

"So, tell me about your new movie. But first, can you explain the chemical processes of the atypical antipsychotics? In alphabetical order by generic name, if you please."

"Tom, what are you wearing? And what can you tell me about B. F. Skinner?"

"Tom, thanks for showing your support for young children with AIDS. When did PTSD receive a formal designation in the DSM, and what was it called in periods before the DSM was published?"

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

What really makes it annoying (and puts gas in the schadenfreudemobile) is that Tom Cruise has to be so damn condescending.

Gnargh. I have two or three meetings to set up, and maybe the weekly status report will have to wait until the weekend.

At least the boss knows I'm having a migraine -- I was so completely mealy-mouthed in the meeting that it embarassed me.

The pain is low, but the mental infringement is way high.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

ita, I was at the doctor's today and read July's Vogue. They had an article in there about women picking up surfing, and mentioned a couple of surfing schools/instructors.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Set up the meetings and go.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
