Allen wrenches bite.
Would someone like to job hunt for me? Not to mention get the UI rules sorted out so I know how to fill out the online forms? Racing around the neighbourhood to find cereal this morning has plain tuckered me out.
Excuse me? Who gave you permission to exist?

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

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
While we're doing recs, I need to buy a new mattress/boxspring set. I don't want to spend over 500 bucks. Is it possible to get a decent one?

Sean, from what I understand, since I read one and a half Anita Blake books before getting bored, it's this thing Anita has that makes her have to have a lot of sex. Also, it's "ardeur", being, you know, French, but neither LKH nor Anita can spell.

I didn't think it would be Sean who won my wager.
W00T!
Now gimme my money.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Jesse, with something as big as a bed it really really helps to have an extra set of hands to hold things in place while you're allen-wrenching everything into place.
NOW you tell me!
It's all good. I actually don't mind the whole Ikea allen wrench thing. I always liked carpentry, but am not committed enough to do it for real.

Oh, also, nothing will ever be as bad as the first time I put together furniture -- I got one of those cheapo futon beds, and it came as literally a box of lumber. Ugh! I slept like a baby that night.

Thrive to spite them
Dad gave me two nice ceramic knives for Xmas. I'd never used them before but I have read about them. So far I've only used one and it's nice and sharp and cuts nice. I'm keeping both of them in the packaging they came in just because I'm so worried that they'll accidentally get caught against something and snap.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Does this mean I'm not a n00b foodie anymore?
Anybody that's making goat cheese and fig quesadillas has moved on to a new level, my little padwan.
