We can come by between classes. Usually I use that time to copy over my class notes with a system of different colored pens. But it's been pointed out to me that that's, you know...insane.

-t, similar, but my pillow was black and white. And it screamed.

I had it in my office and once in a while someone would lean back against it and hear a muffled scream from behind them. One person, knowing this, would wiggle around to try to make it scream ... usually without success.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Why was there not a deafening FOOOM as the heads of everyone within earshot exploded?

I DON'T KNOW! I was like, Bwuh?? But quietly, as not only was I the New Kid, I was the most junior person organizationally.

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

companies don't market directly to kids, and especially not poor kids.

Maybe you missed a word? Like, [Acid Reflux Treatment] companies don't market directly to kids, or [Livestock Transport] companies don't market directly to kids.

Because otherwise that's some crazy shit, yo.

I swear to god he was talking generally. He was like, "they don't have money!" Um... yeah, but have you ever been in the grocery store?

The same person did tell me yesterday that he doesn't have a tv at home, so. But still!!

Or it's one of those lies company employees tell themselves.

I was supposed to go visit my family this weekend, but then I found out the neighborhood welcome party is Saturday night, and George Takei is going to be the grand master of the Pride Parade on Sunday, and...

Right. Two weekends in a row I'm weaseling out of going home. I'm sure that will go over well.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I'm getting all the food groups!

Uh, chips and ice cream. Okay, I guess that's the alternate food pyramid. Did I miss it, or did you also include chocolate, caffeine, and alcohol?

Avocado is the perfect food!

True.

Anyway, look how well your daughter is doing.

But she's... she's wee. And I'm guessing you don't drink quite as much milk as she does.

My dinner is going to be that one teeny piece of chicken I forgot to cook last night (it's like an eighth of a breast. wtf?) and the last 3 mushroom raviolis or maybe an egg and the last of the chips and the last of the salad. Sense a theme? All that together might actually be equivalent to a meal.

In order to eat that though, I must leave.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I'm going to have chips & guac for dinner, too.
