To celebrate sending my manuscript out, I bought myself a juicy steak and a cupcake.
Now for a cool shower, and to bed with me. I'm so tired.
Wild monkey love or tender Sarah McLachlan love?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
How are you feeling physically?
Tired and achey. Which is no doubt contributing.

Mmm, steak.
I think I have leftover chicken tikka and jasmine rice. I should heat that up.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I hope you feel better tomorrow, all the way around.
I want steak, and cupcakes.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Kids learning / trying / doing stuff is quite fun. Nephew just caught his first fish this weekend. He was jabbering about it too fast for me to even catch words. I got caught up in the enthusiasm and then just got the rest of the story from his mom.
Mmm, steak...
Oh yeah, Cass, I know I'm slightly allergic to avocados, peaches, cherries, almonds, etc. But I don't care! One of these days I'm going to end up in the hospital.This is why Benedryl is our friend.
But it is possible that I just came back wrong in this way.
When I met some of the LAistas for the first time, I ordered a veggie burger cheese, avocado and bacon. I explained that I wasn't a vegetarian so the bacon was okay. Then I popped a Benedryl and continued explaining that I was allergic to avocados but that they were yummy. They say it is all about the first impression... Is this why Aimee and MM are always "in Michigan" when I am in LA?

So Kuma is still at large.
He came up to the door of the house, but as soon as I opened it, he left.
Running away is only fun if you get chased.
I think entire dating lives have hung on this premise.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
A friend's dog once got away from me by backing out of his collar. We played the chase game, with him in the middle of a busy intersection of three streets. Luckily, cars stopped.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Maxine does that to us. I can't tell you the number of times I called Mr. H crying because I can't find her, only to come back outside to find her sitting at the door.
Oz only runs away if he thinks I'm going to take his stick/leaf/gumball/whatever from him.
