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

You'll notice most of the things on that list involve me sitting while people do nice things for me.

I'm projecting. Leaving the house for that many separate things would have me cowering in pain.

Or will have me cowering in pain--I just counted 5 places I have to be this weekend. Dammit.

Hopefully the shoulder thing takes.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You'll notice most of the things on that list involve me sitting while people do nice things for me.

That's an excellent plan for the weekend. Me, I have to make Serious Progress on the damn paper.

Love Monkey has been put on indefinite hiatus.

Aw. I liked it!

bon bon, if your reservations aren't in Westchester or something, it'll be fine -- better, it could be an Adventure!

'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"

Hmmm, I have four places to be this weekend. If one place counts as I've invited people to come over to watch SciFi Friday with me.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

time-sucking "red square" game

Best I've done so far is just under 23 seconds.

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

One of my places-to-be does involve medical treatment, so there's that.

I came into the office every single day this week. First time in a couple months, pathetically.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Someone tell me to stop reading coverage of Michael Brown's testimony, since there is nothing convenient to hit here at the office.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Whoops. CEO's assistant just forwarded to me and my boss an email from a client to CEO explaining a project we need to write up for him. And somehow neglected to delete this little gem from the closing of the email:

Don't much like being yelled at even if you consider it a virtue. m.

Ouch. Not many of his clients' who'd dare go that far even.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Dana, this probably won't help: Now Iraqi women can be STONED to DEATH for adultery! Thank BUSH!
