Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm skeptical of the "luminescent" straps on those middle shoes.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm on a conference call. Blah.

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

For thirty odd bucks and free shipping? I'd certainly have a look for myself. IF THEY HAD MY SIZE.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

do they have them in a half size up or down? with open toe shoes I'd be willing to fudge that.

Well, sure.

Nowhere from 7.5 to 9.5.

A cube-neighbour (is there a clever way to say that) overheard someone complaining about how loudly she eats (he's trying to move cubes to avoid the noise), and made a big deal of no longer eating at her desk.

The complainer's not here today, and she ate (loudly) at her desk. I just know I'd be paranoid that more than just the complainer were bothered by this and by hyper vigilant, for at least a week. But this is the same co-worker that spat her food onto another guy's arm, so her levels are not my levels.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I have to ask -- deliberately, or more of an unconscious spraying?

Between that and Scola's nasty keyboard, I may actually have to give up eating at work. And possibly elsewhere as well. Expect flowers from the support guys.

Based on those links, Jesse, I'm going to have to check out my nearby Nordie's. The last shoes don't come in my size, and the first ones won't ship fast enough. But promising!

deliberately, or more of an unconscious spraying?

Involuntary spraying. She mopped it up, but didn't apologise.

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

I'm scouring the web for reaction to the Miers nomination. It's highly entertaining, although I honestly pity "true" conservatives who support Bush only because of the possibility of setting the next generations's Court agenda and were royally fucked by this.

Even if it were possible for Miers to pull a Souter and turn left I'd be afraid that, as a probable swing vote, she (well, her clerks) would draft a bunch of dimwit decisions that would be rather easily overturned.
