Would you be allowed to use University buses?
Ah, the pitter patter of tiny feet in huge combat boots. Shut up!

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

That sounds pretty workable. And you'll save insurance costs too.

What is even happening?
Narrator, you could say Congatulations or We'll miss you (or don't pop any corn).
I think any of your ideas for the cake (even the ones you're not keen on) will work fine.

How about AU REVOIR!?
Without the ?.
I may need more caffeine.
PS, Could Geologist V. Astronomer be the next Caveman V. Astronaut? I mean, they'd have similar modus operandi, really. Or maybe they're just a subset.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
How long would your commute be, Sophia?
Another factor is how often the buses are late. And do you ever have to deal with drunken passengers that fall asleep and lean on your shoulder....

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Sophia, are you still doing the theater? In my mind there was some discussion where you had decided headache vs. income was not worth it.
I'd say try out the bus for a while, while still having the car.
Of course long-term I'd say/suggest looking for jobs at universities in warmer climates and possibly with better transportation.

They could have a big fight and throw plutons at each other, while on a Pluton....

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Could Geologist V. Astronomer be the next Caveman V. Astronaut?
Aha. I thought you meant that like Workbook G. Cunts or something. Spam has ruined my brain.
Yesterday was migraine-free, although not pre-migraine free. So the upped meds may be some use.
This morning I'm squarely pre-migraine, and my day is 4 meetings deep, three before lunch. Which means no rest inbetween.

If the astronomers get to throw their plutons, I don't see the geologists lasting very long. On the other hand, geologists can actually throw their plutons without the aid of specialized technology.

Ha! It's real-life Caveman v. Astronaut!
