Me too, shrift, but my mom sends funny ones, so that's okay.

rice and broccoli. the better to soak up the garlic butter with. Unless you are making british shrimp scampi, which we call fried shrimp. And then I would suggest a nice salad.
Rice. good idea.
A friend also suggested lemon fettucine. MMM. Everything sounds good.

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 remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
The scampi is butter and garlic sauce, yes? If there's extra sauce available, I'd try to find some spinach-infused linguini or other long pasta to drizzle it over. Maybe with diced zuchinni mixed in.

To celebrate Valentine's Day, I'm going to pick up some chocolate at Walgreen's on the way home, then fix myself up a pitcher of strawberry margaritas (for that red festive color) and watch the Westminster Dog Show.
Oh, and a Cheney one-liner from the Tribune: "Be vewy quiet. I'm hunting wobbyists."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh god, please let me go home. Migraine hit hard in the middle of a phone conference. It can't last much longer--it just can't.

Is this you and JZ? Sweet.
Yep. Phil told them we were on our honeymoon, so I'm expecting some bubbly in the bedroom.
Jacqueline, Phil made it clear that (a) he was giving us the super deluxe Bellagio package; and (b) he had to pull strings to make it happen because it's a huge poker tournament that weekend.
Also? He's buying the airplane tickets.
