Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

Well, I'm sure to let my mom know!

she had this plan to paint her dorm room with vegetation and calligraphy like an illuminated manuscript.

As if I didn't like Ellen enough already.

Oh, and ita! I can tie krav and the current subject of conversation, sort of, in reverse, thanks to you! A friend loaned me a book that takes place in LA. At some point, the main character gets taken to a krav maga class. And from all the description in the book, I think it's your center. I recognized the description of the place, and way things worked for an introductory class, even a couple of the names in the "thank you" list on the last page. It was so strange - how could reality filter into a book like that? The only difference was, the main character didn't really enjoy her lesson, and she described it as something that kept her muscles sore for days, while I was having the time of my life and could just go on. Oh, and she didn't get you to instruct her.

(Also, in my current belated fashion, congrats on the new job!)

It's been, what, eight or nine years now? Dude. Weird. I guess time flies when you're busy being an internet pervert.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I knew you when you were a teenager!

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

I met shrift before I knew who she was. Well, I knew she was the chick who wasn't going to finish a WIP that had me drooling, but I had no idea she was the one doing Let's Objectify Men.

Yum.

Nilly! What's the name of the book? I'm most curious.

Oh my god. You did.

I met shrift before I knew who she was.

I think I met ita before I started lurking at TT, but my memory is fuzzy and I can't be sure.

Exploding toilets recalled in Japan:

Japan's leading toilet manufacturer Toto is offering free repairs to 180,000 toilets after some of them caught fire.

There have been three incidents of the electric bidet accessory in Toto's Z series catching fire.

"Fortunately nobody was using the toilets when the fire broke out and there were no injuries," a company spokesman said.

"The fire would have been just under your buttocks," she added.
