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

You should have bought apple pies.

Nope. They don't sell Mr. Kipling's pies here (I think anywhere in the US) anymore. Off-brand apple pies--ick. However, there are some nice alternate mince pies out there. There's a Cointreau one I really want.

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

I'm kicking myself because I decided to check my suitcase in order to save myself some hassle while I wait and wait and wait for my plane, but I forgot that all of my dvds were in the suitcase.

At all? I thought that was just temporary.

Any temporary that goes on about a year requires contigency planning on my part.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Emmett and I are back from a bike ride in the Panhandle. JZ is out at the grocery store getting stuff. Pizza is ordered.

I got JZ a cool last minute impulse buy! Huzzah. Emmett got a Mega Gir among his other stuff. My sister sent a huge box of presents (mostly Emmett's). I wish I remembered she always did that because between that, and me and his Mom and various other relatives - he really gets too much.

Maybe I should save stuff for February and the blahs.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

I just made a fantastic (and easy) apple pie the other day, ita. Trader Joe's sells frozen pie crusts. Sans pie plate. You just thaw the crust, put it in your pan and fill. I sliced a couple heirloom variety apples, put a pat of butter in, cinnamon and some brown sugar. That's it. I like my fruit pies to be tart and fresh, not super-sugary. I reheated at work the next morning and all my co-workers were exclaiming about how great it smelled. It tasted wonderful, too.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
