Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My jobs have generally been officially 9-5, with nasty looks heaped upon people (exempt people) who leave at 5-ish.

I am now at the point where I have too many things that all need to be done OMG RIGHT AWAY, so I can't deal with any of them. AWESOME.

I'm inclined to do the easiest, but it's not nearly the most important/first due.

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

In the automotive world, a "sleeper" is a car that looks ordinary and pedestrian, like something your grandparents might drive, but in reality is a powerful, high-performance car. The fun part of driving a sleeper is pulling up to sporty cars at stoplights and then blowing them away by out-accelerating them....

My salon uses aveda and about half the time I end up having to wash my hair within a few hours of a cut. It doesn't translate to pain, just....extreme annoyance, even as I logically like the scent. It just starts making me really irritable.

Our wings are not tired.

Allyson, please schedule your booking with Jon Stewart now.

Oh my, how I like the sound of that...

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

Allyson, please schedule your booking with Jon Stewart now.

Your confidence makes me giggle. I have none of those expectations. I'm just stoked that the firefly fans are giving me a little table space at Wondercon to put out flyers.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

My office jobs have been either 9 - 5 (with 1 hour lunch) 8 - 5 (with a 1 hour lunch) or 8:00 - 4:30 (with a half hour lunch). At my university, there is no office (except medical departments which see patients) open past 5:00, and in many cases offices close at 4 or 4:30 (bursar's, registrar's, parking).

YAY ALLYSON! I just happen to have a bottle of champagne that needs to be opened...IJS.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I just pre-ordered Allyson's book!

Allyson, has your publisher started setting up a promotional tour for you yet? Because I was just thinking that a great interview for you would be on WGN radio, with Nick Digilio. His late-night weekend show is very pop-culture heavy (he's interviewed Tim at least once that I recall), and his listeners are really into things like your book. Also, in the nighttime hours, WGN's 50,000 watts can be heard in 38 states and a few provinces.
