Shit's all sorts of different now.
Now that I think of it, that question should be extended to Aimee too.
When is it that you'll be here?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Brenda, I think "boffin" is antipodean slang for scientist.

msbelle, no big.
I did pretty much all the work I had to do within fifteen minutes of getting here. Which was silly, as the person requesting it (in an email sent today) asked if I could have it done by Thursday.
Ah well. Nearly finished with the trig book, need to select next mathematical victim. Any suggestions?
Also, there's a Poe song "Lemon Meringue" which has been stuck in my head since last night.
Stop right there before I get bitter
There's got to be a better way
There's got to be a way to make it sweeter
A little more like lemon meringue
Also, I was doing hip swivels in front of the mirror and observing that the new body may be better suited to belly dancing.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
When is it that you'll be here?
Right now it is looking like July 30th and 31st.

Only here would there be a zombie dog x-post....
"What up, dog?" can only be used ironically now, I'm afraid. Sorry if you didn't get that memo.
I address my mom's pit bull that way. No, really. He jumps up to have his head scratched, and I ask "What up, dog?"

Okay, quiz time.
You work in the mailroom. It's your job to deliver mail. Someone hands you something at about 4:30 on Friday afternoon, saying, "I wanted to make sure I didn't miss the last mail pickup of the day; can you make sure it gets delivered?
Do you
a) deliver it right then
b) put it in the pile of stuff to be delivered in half an hour
c) "file it" so it is still in your cart on Monday afternoon.
eta: So you guys are going to be around, Aimee?
