Thrive to spite them
It's weird people at work refer to women as "Miss First Name", not everyone and it's men and women. It's definitly a Southern thing, but Mom never had us do that, I'm not sure why...well she's not Southern...but it's still weird to hear myself refered to as Miss Allison by adults.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
When editing a manuscript (abbreviated "mss.") the Luddite way, which we do in my office (and I dearly love editing the way we do, pen to paper), making that little ¶ makes me unaccountably happy.
Raar!
But do you, in conversation, say something, start to correct it, realize you had it right the first time, and then say (out loud), "No, no. Stet that."
Do you?
Oh FUCK yeah.
(Actually, for years, before my sweet co-worker quit, when she left at the end of the day, she'd say "That's a 30," and I'd say either "Pound pound pound," or "Triple pound." You can't get much dorkier than that. Though I try.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My other students had no problem just calling me Teacher.
Now that seems cutesy and Little House On The Prairie.
How little we understand each other.
I could send you a sushi bandaid. Would that do?
It's not abalone, is it?
LeN, it's certainly the most expensive piece of furniture I've ever bought. At the sticker price, I don't think I would have. At sale price ... well, I asked people to talk me out of it. No one really tried.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo
See, ita, I am used to being called teacher because they called me Maestra Gullo. So te transference to being called Teacher seemed normal.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
FTR, I am really quite dissatisfied with both my choices for dinner food tonight and what I ended up having.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Has anybody seen the new issue of Entertainment Weekly? It's a Where Are They Now issue for entertainers of the 90s. Like...ASH and Peta Wilson and Janine Turner and Josh Jackson and Andre Braugher. It felt like they'd been annointed with the sacred oil of Has Been. It was weird. Hollywood is weird.

I did! Well, briefly. Joshua Jackson continues to be cute.
(Also, I mailed your DVD today, after forgetting on Saturday. So it should turn up soonish.)
