Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Exactly what Cashmere said. Did you know that schizophrenics are usually chain smokers? The nicotine actually helps control their symptoms.

I'm actually showered and I've taken all my vitamins. This doesn't sound like much, but compared to days when it's practically time to leave and I haven't done that much, it's positively rocket science time.

Yup. My brother is a walking ash tray.

Skip dates, skip dating, skip all that crap, and it'd be nice to have emotional backup on tap.

What is even happening?

Like Strega, I had to pick the least bad answers. I got a 45. They suspect I'm a quirky-together, which they described as something like a subset of quirky alones who manage to hook up with same.

It's a fair cop.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm down with the "family of choice" concept, but shouldn't "my actual relatives" at least be an option here?

Also, a "significant other" isn't a friend? That quiz was annoying. But then, I hate the word quirky, so they kind of lost me from jump.

The only word I hate more than quirky is kooky, which is what my Mom invariably calls anything I'm interested in, or do.

Since the site is selling a book called quirkyalone I expect the quiz isn't exactly set up to be unbiased.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I got 113-- but I actually like the concept, because it sounds like me. I am that perky, I think!

I have this weird thing where I love Valentine's Day. I have never had a SO on Valentine's day, although I did get a lovely Valentine from a nice Buffista once-- but the past couple years I have been making little valentines day Hello Kitty packages for Cow-orkers, and giving Star Wars Velentines to my friend and her kids, and just being generally happy, becuase it is a sort of day to celebrate pink and cute.

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

Today's headache feels much more typical. I foresee both the office and a chai latte in my future. Plus we get to go home at 3!

I spaced big time yesterday. I was supposed to take my car in in the wee hours, which obviously I couldn't do, but I forgot about it until this morning, so no timely rescheduling for this week. Plus I needed to pay a traffic ticket yesterday (today is the due date, and I think I'll have gotten bitten by processing times, despite having paid it ten minutes ago).

Blah!

This emotional backup I require, while having to distract me from the things that make me sad, will also have to remind me to take care of my stuff.

Bluetooth speakerphone.

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

I'm awake! I didn't oversleep. Okay, so awake just means that I am drinking coffee, but still in my jammies.
