Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

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

"Hey! You got another black eye!"
"It wasn't krav."
"Really? You have to leave him."
"I can't! I tried but...I wish I knew how to quit him."

Comedy gold people, comedy gold.

Now the same co-worker is IMing me and calling me liar, and that I must have gotten into a relationship and won't admit it.

eta: Now he's calling me Cristina Yang. I should have stayed home.

Oddly, I blame shrift for this, since she was the one that originally predicted that yesterday/Monday was never going to end.

Oh, sure, blame the messenger!

Note to self: stop making valid observations, for it only leads to ill will.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I think you're overlooking a potentially profitable situation here, shrift. There could be quite the market for t-shirts, mugs, wristbands, etc that say "blame shrift."

To do list:

1) Go spend too much money to Best Buy.
2) Charge iPod.
3) Stay away from all televisions during SotU to avoid severe property damage.
4) Develop persecution complex.

Let me sum up the SotU so you don't have to watch it.

Economy is great
Gotta have that post-9/11 mindset
We've won in Iraq, freedom is marching right now, it's just hard to tell
We're gonna fix healthcare by tweaking the existing system just a little
It would be cool to not be dependent on oil, but we're not really serious about it

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Gud, you forgot about how we're fighting a secret enemy that lurks.

Plus a few veiled references to overturning Roe v. Wade and the coming Rapture.
