Huh?
Because of the missing badge, I'd wager.
I'm so evil and... skanky. And I think I'm kinda gay.

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

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Laura is 10 years older than her DH and I'm six years older than mine.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Not a sticker on her face, which was my first reading.
You need a minion.
I have a minion! I was surprised and dismayed to learn that it only means that between the two of us, we're supposed to get EVEN MORE STUFF done. WTF?
Jesse, I need money. Why do you hate me?
No hate! You can come be my temp if you want.
bon bon is renowned for doing stuff for other people for free!
EXCELLENT point.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I can drive okay without glasses, yep. I can't read license plates more than two cars ahead, and street signs two blocks ahead.
Working at the computer bothers me, though. My nose keeps getting closer to the screen.
I'm gonna ask to take half a day off, anyway, Cindy. That was I can tackle these notes.

Corwood, you should not only get another doctor, you should complain to the practice about this one. Nobody need politics while pointy things are in his nose.

This led to his observations about how unfit women's brains are for anything other than raising children and how wonderful it is to be white and Southern and male.
Hm. I know a lot of female physicists. I always wonder how difficult it must be to be so willfully ignorant.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Ah, I understand the sticker now! At first I was all like, "But her face is right in front of them! Why do they need a sticker?"

Would like to boggle at Corwood's doctor, but know too many people like that to be able to bring myself to.
Waves at Corwood!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The ENT physician I saw this morning made an unfortunate assumption about me after finding out that I'm from Alabama and work for the Legislature in this state. This led to his observations about how unfit women's brains are for anything other than raising children and how wonderful it is to be white and Southern and male. I wanted to point out that just being fat and having sideburns doesn't make me Toby Keith, but he kept sticking pointy metal things into my nose, so I was loathe to piss him off.
Wait. What?

This gives me hope that in my lifetime I'll be able to dine out alone in a new restaurant and not be squeezed into a corner next to the kitchen or restroom doors.
