So, how was your summer? Mine was fun. Saw some fish. Went mad with hunger. Hallucinated a whole bunch.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Because butter usually has salt in it?

Well, not necessarily. THere's usually an equal contingent of salted and unsalted at the grocery store. We always buy/use unsalted.

Well, you wouldn't sit down with a nice bowl of strawberries and butter, either.

At least, I wouldn't.

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

Hi Ali! My ass didn't call you. I feel like a bad friend.

Good luck with the job. What is it?

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

You could dip the straberries in melted butter, then roll them in jimmies. Or mineature chocolate chips.

What is even happening?

A world of EWWWWWWW. Of course, so's margarine.

Agreed, but I non-dairy creamer in coffee inhabits a whole different world of Ewww for me than does margarine. At least the n-d c pretends to be milky. Evil-ex and his grammie were in another life, but from what little memory remains, the margarine really just oil-ified the coffee.

tommyrot, you are hereby forbidden any more strawberries. If you're going to treat them like that, you're not worthy.

I didn't say I'd do that; it was just a hypothetical.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Stawberries in melted butter doesn't sound like it would suck. There can be melted butter with strawberry shortcake, can't there? (The biscuit kind.)

No, I don't think so. I'm thinking that's a whipped cream situation. Biscuit + butter + strawberries /= strawberry shortcake, it's just a buttered bisuit with berries.

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

I have chocolate milk. The world can rest.

I had weird dreams -- the sort that on waking seem like they should have been nightmares, but at the time, all the oddity was taken as perfectly normal. Which is having a hell of a lingering effect, as I become more and more disturbed at not having been disturbed.
