Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

What is even happening?

shrift, after reading the disturbing Willis-sprog deer taking-down-post, I saw your first mention of tipping the delivery guys, and thought it was a new twist on cow tipping.

I'm sorry I don't have a serious answer for you. I never know the answer to that question.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My only way of telling who among furniture deliverers expect a tip is who hangs around for one, sadly. The IKEA guys ran off before I could tip them one time, but not the other.

Well, I am from cow country. Never tipped a cow over, and never tipped a cow with cash. Take that as you will.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

We can trade shoes all day! Light blue flip-flops sound fun.

I'll send them out soon.

Do you need my address?

Not if it's on the box you sent me, which I have cleverly saved until I managed to write a thank-you note.

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

ita are you on lala?

No--I just remember you and/or Jesse mentioning it. Not my thang.

msbelle, you work too long. My 12-odd hour workdays at least have exercise and discussions about porn.

I am good with no porn discussions.

I've decided to work 6-4 the rest of this week. The 3 hours in the morning with an empty office are pure joy.

I think it was, unless I used my work address, which is fine too.

msbelle, ita is right.
