Um, even with Daniel and Teal'c there?
Dude, right there on the shore. No, I mean after/because of the fishing. Plus, magic sex fish.

You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

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

If it comes up, "Because the location/format of the meeting varies, I requested clarification on where/what it would be on 12/8 so as to make appropriate arrangements to take part. Unfortunately, Dumbfuck did not respond to either email or messages until it was too late."
There. Nothing to do with committment. It's lack of information even when it was actively sought.
Probably should leave out the Dumbfuck part, though.

Magic sex fish! Yay!
Hmm. coworker wants me to go to Stockton next Friday because a public meeting looks like it is related to a project we want to get. But me? I'm not driving all the way to Stockton without a better guarantee that it's relevant.
Off to the interweb!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Probably should leave out the Dumbfuck part, though.
Yeah. Just to be safe, you should change it to Umbday Uckfay.

I'm probably coming off a little strident, but I'm in a situation of a similar nature with the great gonzos here, for the gazillionth time, despite multiple entreaties that they get it right , and it is just pissing me off.

I suspect this is why they call it Work.
Would I sit down and do this voluntarily, without being paid to do so? If the answer is no, it's work.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
But scary in a good way, right?
...yeah, I'm kind of a scaredy-cat. But I'm good with bugs! And non-poisonous snakes.
I like the concept of magical AU sex fish. Katie, why don't you write a story about that?
Because the ficathon is gen, alas.

Which may be why I'm having trouble with it. Also, deadlines make it work, and work and me aren't getting along these days.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
No self-respecting engineering student would make the kinds of dumb mistakes that are built into us. All of our pelvises slope forward for convenient knuckle-dragging, like all the other great apes. And the only reason you stand erect is because of this incredible sharp bend at the base of your spine, which is either evolution's way of modifying something or else it's just a design that would flunk a first-year engineering student.t nods and nods and nods
but now it's occurring to me that you could totally have a great SCUBA cruise, and dive a number of places. Huh.ita, I have my PADI books and cd coursework if you'd like to borrow for a refresh. I recall you saying that you had done the classes and pool work, just needed the open water dives to cert.
So glad that Franny is okay, Burrell. How frightening.

No, I haven't -- but that's how I was planning on approaching it, by doing all that work before I fly out.
However, having looked at stuff on the web, I might not even. Still deciding.
HOWEVER, borrowing your stuff can't hurt, can it?
