My theory is that Earth is receiving far less radiation from the Caffeine planet.
There's something about a food that moves all by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

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

I, for one, welcome our new Caffeine overlords, and only wish they would send MORE, PLEASE!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I have to make a SERIOUS note to self about leaving the office at 5. I think the trains are always more crowded. Could that be? Could the percentage of people in Manhattan who leave work at 5 really be that high? Is it only on Fridays? Do I ever leave that early on a day that's not Friday?
I need to do some research, I think.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Maybe it's the brokerages/investment banks, Jesse. I think they are 8-5, and if the staff there is anything like the staff here, they are out the door at 5:00:01. At least my unscientific survey about I-bankers says that pricks in suits are on the early trains and assholes in business casual roll in after nine.

Heh. I didn't notice the crowd being especially suit-ish, but this is why I need to do more leaving-at-5 research! Although, no way I'm getting in at 8. I didn't know there were people with office jobs in Manhattan who did that.

What are you supposed to do for a pulled muscle? Heat, cold, walk it off, what?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I love local radio productions. First a piece that was a ride along with a cynical cabbie, now a spoken word piece on Baltimoreness. And I'm pretty sure a piece on lisah's friend's new store. They almost always have a spoken word piece and they tend to be awesome.

What sucks at TJs? Anything?
I really didn't like their frozen pierogies or the shelf-stable gnocci. The pierogies were a weird texture, and the gnocci tasted strange.
I love their frozen french onion soup, which is vegetarian.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Also rest and elevation.
