der... found it.
Seriously, I want to turn on the oven and every one halogen lamp in the house along with our little powerless space heaters.
Don't worry, I'm not gonna start any sword fights. I'm over that phase.

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
RIO (who is probably gone to bed)!
I called someone a FUCKO yesterday and thought of you. Everytime a Buffista calls someone a FUCKO, Rio gets a kiss. Like It's a Wonderful Life, with profanity and tongue.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Miss Jesse, I just talked to msbelle. And we both decided you're the one who is using up our free time.
@@ I totally just did part of a paper! Now I go to bed.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
They should film that and show it every Christmas, Allyson.
FOODIE FUCKOS!
I need to know what a good couverture chocolate would be, because I have realized I can combine my Very Excellent Handmade Caramels with Very Good Coating Chocolate and Fancy Sea Salt and have a Reasonable Facsimile of the Fran's Grey Salt Caramels that own my soul.
Hell, even the high-chocolate chocolate chips I used in a pinch were an RFO, so if I improve the chocolate, I'm golden.

Yeah, sure you did. STOP HOGGING THE LOUNGE ABOUT TIME JESSE!
Also, Allyson, I had dinner tonight at Home. Before parent conferences.
OH! Can I gloat about parent conferences for a minute.
I had ~58 families. I also followed the student-led conference shtick that my school has adopted. So I got kids prepped by having them write a reflection. Then when they walked in, there was a note on the board that said,
Steps to conferencing.
1. Introduce your parents to your teacher.
2. Get your portfolio
3. Review work with your guest
4. Discuss what you've learned, what you've gotten better at, what you are proudest of, what you need help learning and why you have the grade you have.
5. explain your goal for the next 4 weeks.
6. Put your portfolio away.
What I loved is that whenever a parent came up to me to ask how a kid was doing I'd say, "Student, tell me how you think you are doing? and why?"
So good.

Kat, you probably passed us, sitting at the Bean, having celebratory coffee.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You're putting salt in your chocolate? Why??>?? Jalapenos I get. Salt's just wrong.

You left off and then send them to Lee.
