Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Why do I keep getting troubleshooting phone calls from students at a college I haven't worked at in over a year? I need to start billing them.

You just answered your own question. You provide free support - what's not to like from their point of view. I'll your number is passed from student to student, and possibly also given out by the people who would othewise have to do what you do as part of their job.

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

TB is right, aurelia.

I have no beach towel. How is that possible? How is that right? It's just not.

But I'm in the swimsuit now, and I just have to finish this chocolate cupcake and head out. Really.

Tired.

What is even happening?

And "Scrubs" is filming again. It's nice that I can stalk ZB on my home from my therapist.

Don't tell the therapist, of she'll try to convince you it isn't "healthy" or "legal" or whatever. Also, please feel free to stalk John C. McGinley (who t incentive imdb reports is a good friend of John Cusack's t /incentive ) on my behalf, but you must report back to me.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Not a problem. I live to serve.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

OK, the walls are two-way mirrors, but still - check out the pictures.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

That's freaky, tommyrot.

I'll your number is passed from student to student, and possibly also given out by the people who would othewise have to do what you do as part of their job.

A big part of the problem is there is no one with that job. Not in a supervisory capacity anyway. And I'm the one who set up their system since I was around when they bought it. I'll have to start telling them to call the dept. chair since he teaches the design class.

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

Baking today, recipe testing for Cook's Illustrated. So far, I've learned two things:

1. Properly browned butter smells so fucking delicous it can make you dizzy.

2. Using the burners on my oven as a substitute cooling rack for cookies? Not really optimum. For several reasons, not the least of which being that I just caught the dog strolling out of the kitchen with a cookie in her mouth.

Just think of Lucy as your taste tester.

In that case, success! I'm not sure her standards are all that high, though.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That height study totally explains why I'm so freaking smart.

I felt like they were trying too hard to accomplish the right blend of quirk/snark/heart stuff they used to do, naturally.

That doesn't really surprise me, I guess. I will definitely check out the Comedy Central reruns.

I have new glasses. The woman at the glasses store said my old frames were hopeless, but sold me new frames for $100 and popped the old lenses right in. So that's something. Now I think I hate the new ones, but I always think that. At least I can see. And I have the broken frames and will try to superglue them back together, for the hell of it.
