I usually didn't have to be in at 8.
Well, that makes up for staying later. Or it does if you're as anti-morning as I am.
Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I had one job where I had to be in at 7 something. I'm not not a morning person, so it never bothered me. Not sure when I left--around 4, I think.
Laundry question--where do you tend to wash your black and white clothes? Water as cold as possible, but with which load of laundry--whites or colours?
Which reminds me--I should totally wear black and white stripey tights today.

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
It's getting good presales from the chains and we're thinking that this book might be the "sleeper" of our fall list!
Unreal. I'm not sure what to do with myself, lately. The presales were over twice as many as expected at the big chains.
I can't believe any of this is happening, really.
I think it's because I think I'm so lame, and that mostly everyone here is a way better writer than I.
I can't imagine the thing being that successful, because it all seems so embarassingly ridonkulous.
When people ask mewhat my book is about, I still don't know how to describe it without getting redfaced.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
We do hot and clorox for white. Cold for Blacks and coloreds. Since we uee clorox--white and black goes with blacks.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I'm not sure what to do with myself, lately.
I'd start with champagne and go from there. Seriously, this is such amazing news!

Allyson, I second the champagne idea! And I'll bet you can get some on sale because of Valentine's Day.
And I need to pre-order your book.

You misspelled, "all champagne will be marked up because of Valentine's Day hype."
I assume it's like the same as the V-Day specific fluctuation in price for red roses, right?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
When people ask mewhat my book is about, I still don't know how to describe it without getting redfaced.
If you don't feel like launching into a detailed explanation, you could say, "It's a vampire thing you just wouldn't understand."
Congrats on the good early signs, btw....

Maybe after V-Day?
