I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

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

Yeah. Bears and raccoons will get into just about anything. My town ended up buying these special cans that are bolted to cement on four corners and you have to push a lever to open the lid. They seem to work pretty well, but if I remember correctly they costs thousands of dollars each. I saw some like ours near Seal Rock in San Francisco.
Wild animals. They're not just cute and cuddly.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

That looks like the thing. Thanks!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I love the name of Willie Nelson's new song: "Cowboys Are Frequently, Secretly (Fond of Each Other)"
It's a cover, so the song itself isn't all that new.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Bears and raccoons will get into just about anything.
Don't forget the moose. Champion lock-pickers, those ungulates are.

The raccoons were always trying to break into the house. I'd wake up with a freaked out cat trying to hide in my head and there would be these beady eyes peering through the screen, poking fingers into the rips. They'd moved a tree stump to the window for just that purpose. I'd usually just sit up and chatter at them for a little while before going back to sleep. They were pretty funny too. When they'd hear/see me, there would be this mad scramble of raccoons trying to get the best view, which meant a tower of raccoons that frequently tumbled. They were quite used to people up there.

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
For the last 15 minutes, I've been fantasizing about a hot cup of tea, while sitting on my sofa looking through a Crate & Barrel catalogue.
God my life is boring.
Today has been of the suck.

Hey, I'm talking about 15 years ago raccoons and fantasizing about getting an a&w burger on the way home and going to bed early again (even though it made me no less tired last night, sigh.)
We could have a boring-off. It would probably involve a lot of staring blankly at the wall, though....

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I think that suonds quite lovely. More lovely with an Actual cup of tea, but still.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

For the last 15 minutes, I've been fantasizing about a hot cup of tea, while sitting on my sofa looking through a Crate & Barrel catalogue.I should have a catalog to flip through. I have the hot tea already. Today really is of the suck. At least my meds are doing their job if not leaving me with much in the way of fut. Painfree futless is better than the alternative.
