It's all about choices, Faith. The ones we make, and the ones we don't. Oh, and the consequences. Those are always fun.

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

my mother and I looked at each other, trying to figure out why the house was suddenly a mess. My father totally goes around cleaning up after us all the time!

Oh, dear god. My father isn't a flake like sara describes her father--rather he doesn't think he should have to bother. Every now and again we ask him what he thinks happens to the stuff he doesn't put away. He never answers. That is, I think, why he allows other people to exist.

Alex irritates me. He needs to be less understandable. Which I whitefont, because for a while, I thought he wasn't going to be that at all.

Also, Hec, a hippie with a commute like that is a piss poor hippie.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I agree about Alex, ita.

I had my annual review today.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I haven't watched GA yet. It shall be cued.

How was the review, Perkins?

if someone wants daily vacuuming?! That person can do it.

Right? Also,when I tried to have that argument with him, it didn't work so much. At some point he hated pretty much everything about me, not limited to but including: the way I did the dishes, my reluctancy in giving the cat weekly baths,my laziness and unwillingness to exercise.

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

if someone wants daily vacuuming?! That person can do it.

Oh, I totally agree. I mean, I don't think I should have to tolerate someone's dirty dishes in the sink for days on end so that I'm always doing someone else's dishes just so I can cook something for me.

But if it drives me apeshit that there's a teacup, plate, fork, and spoon in the sink before I go to bed? That shit's on me.

Yeah, but charistmatic and poetical. Plus, prone to shaving Natalie Portman's head with little provocation.

I too agree with ita about Alex.

David, no ginger cookies of anykind. Though I have maple cookies which are of the yum. Does growing up in Ohio and having a love of maple products make me almost canadian?

You're such a slut.

For some reason all the relationship talk is making me feel like an alien again.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Shared places: You have to agree on a standard - messier than the Felix wants, cleaner than the Oscar wants. Then you take equal shares for maintaining that standard. This minimizes the urge to kill for both parties - at least on that issue.
