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

Dude. ageofconsent.com seems to be no more! I'm googling for references to it, and I've bumped into a surprising amount of dislike of the premise of the site. I thought it was a good thing, myself. But I never went past that one page with all the ages on it.

Is it possible we won't be having our staff meeting today?

Was it here that people talked about Ace of Cakes? Cause it's cute, and they pull together *amazing* cakes. Although I'm not sure why one would want a Scottish cow cake, but whatever turns you on...

My friend J had an Ace of Cakes cake at his wedding. It was beautiful and tasted good.

Hmm. Today's good news: despite all the time I lost today, I actually finished laying out first draft pages for all the material Editorial has gotten to me so far. Also, insurance will pay all but a $250 deductible on damages, and 80% of rental car costs up to $1,000.

Today's bad news: The insurance approved dealership service shop can't fit me in until Feb. 14. While my car seems fine for driving around town, I'm leery of taking it on the open road again until I know the brakes and wheels are sound. Which means I'll be staying for two weeks at my parents' house.

Oh well, being sane was nice while it lasted.

Because books.

ita, i was just looking for a book in a library catalog, and found a book by someone named Ita Daly. She obviously capitalizes (or her publishers do) but I'd still never run across anyone else with your name.

Ha! I laugh because when I was a teen I was the hugest Daley Thompson fangirl. Ita Daly just sounds like the stalkerish next step, along with typo.

Okay, so I left work and ducked into a convenience store on the way to the bus to see if they had anything better than Turning Leaf. While I was peering at their wine selection, a dude said something about how he'd like to get past me. Since I wasn't blocking the aisle, and I was tired and frozen, I waved for him to go ahead and said something inane like, "That's okay."

Apparently, this was The Wrong Thing To Say, and he took umbrage, demanding to know if I thought he was going to attack me, because he wasn't that guy, I should worry about those guys out front, and etc. He grabbed his 40 and headed to the register, bitching at me the whole time. I finally found an acceptable vintage and wandered to the front of the store. For some reason he offered to let me go in front of him, and I said, "That's cool, you were here first."

Apparently, this was also The Wrong Thing To Say, because I got treated to another spiel about how he was a regular here and I probably didn't know that, and did I think he was going to attack me, blah blah.

I just looked at him and said, "Dude, you're the one who keeps bringing it up."
