shrift, Dana, seriously? I'm impressed neither one of you is on a homicidal rage by now. Actually homicidal, I mean.
Vortex, I'm obsessed with things that are pumpkin-y, but not pumpkin pie: pumpkin creme brulee, pumpkin cheesecake, like that.
Angel: Yeah, I never told anyone about this, but I-I liked your poems. Spike: You like Barry Manilow.

Flu vaccine is my life right now (my office gives shots). I do know that the current vaccine does not protect against "avian flu" as it hasn't passed from human to human yet. (please forgive me if this has already been said). The other thing that is a pain in the ass is that someone or something (perhaps the drug companies) seem to be controlling the vaccine-- that is you could order 30,000 doses for next week, and then just not get them. Or get fewer and late and then have to throw it out because your clinic has passed.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Now they have no choice but to bring you in to fix the mess they made. But watch out! They'll turn on you the first chance they get.
Awesome. You know, she's a techie who doesn't play by the rules. Her partner was three days from retirement when that backhoe driver ran him over. Now she's out for revenge, and god help the people who get in her way.

I recommend answering your cell phone periodically with the phrase "Hello? Oh, yes, Mr. President. It's quite an honor to speak to you."
"Copy that, Mountaineer."

I, on the other hand, walked into the office this morning to discover some jackhole with a backhoe had severed the network connection between our buildings, and thus we get to spend ALL DAY hooking up the studio across the street with firewire drives full of files
Hmm. Was Mayor Daley involved? He's been known to settle disputes by way of midnight backhoe.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Take good care of it, will you?

I don't know why I'm not strangling people with my bare hands right now. I suspect that I'm saving it up for tomorrow, when they make me participate in some horrifying skit about synergy. That's when I'll flip out like a mammal.
Or walk off the job. That could be fun.

"The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be."

In a world of drives... drives made of FIRE! She's going to hook them up... ANY WAY SHE CAN!
