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

Here's how you know I'm a bitch: my second thought was "I hope this doesn't fuck up my east side commute home."

A bitch or a New Yorker.

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

Here's how you know I'm a bitch: my second thought was "I hope this doesn't fuck up my east side commute home".

Heh. Do I even need to tell you my first thought?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

There was some "police investigation" at one station the other day that shut down an entire major line for hours -- I was just glad I knew about it ahead of time (thanks, internet!), so I could just go home the other way.

Do I even need to tell you my first thought?
Luckily, there is no reason to want to be near there, so.

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

My thoughts? "My landlord/managment co. is near there, I should google to find out where" "I have no idea what the name of my landlord is."

I look more rad than Lutheranism

They don't think it's anything but a tragic accident, but a no-fly zone has been established and NORAD has scrambled fighter jets over major cities.

Yahoo news (and I realize all the large news sources are saying different things) says that NORAD wasn't tracking this plane. (Yeah, that's the other think -- Yahoo news is saying it's a plane.)

"I have no idea what the name of my landlord is."

Heh. Don't you write them a check every month? I actually got a phone call from my landlord the other week, which freaked me right out! He seemed nice enough, though.

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

Prison justice.

They mention that child abusers are at the bottom of the prison hierarchy. I wonder who's at the top.

I had to fill out a card with my address at the optometrist, and I paid careful attention to my writing. Since it was a mailing label, I guess I used my upright cursive. My cursive for my own notes is smaller and slanted.

I used to do handwriting analysis a lot. I have no idea if my three or four different hands all point to one personality.

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

There's already a Wikipedia entry: [link]

Wikipedia is bananas.

Also bananas? I just emailed someone I know, but haven't been in touch with in a while, about a work question. Turns out (a) she's on leave working on a book, and (b) she's pregnant, due in December! I guess we really HAVEN'T been in touch! Sheesh.

I write it to [my address] Associates, LLP. I think even when Related was my landlord the checks went to [my address] Associates, LLP.
