Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

Buffista diversity: some of us want a cabana boy; others, pneumatic tubes.

...So nobody else went to a Brave New World place with "pneumatic tubes"? Because I seriously couldn't believe that hadn't been COMMed by the time I read it. And then I thought, "Maybe I'm the only one interpreting that in a filthy way. In which case, I win!"

Ann, that's a ferret.

Happy Birthday, Sheryl!

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

A guy in the supermarket complimented my hair. It was a split second before I remembered what colour it was. This, to me, is normal hair colour. Not my normal, but normal. I only expect people who know me blonde to take any notice of it.

And then I remember you still can't get born with this colour hair.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I was JUST talking about pnuematic tubes yesterday. We have a large architect firm below us at work and in the elevator we told some people getting offthere to start putting more pnuematic tubes in buildings. They were all "ok, crazy people".

ION, just found out a friend of mine, through my brother, is on Dirt. huh. never seen it, so wouldn't have known, but huh. worlds collide.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Thanks, Fred Pete!

(Argh...need to get the laundry out of the dryer)

Oh, the instant I read I thought "Just what kind of pneumatic tubes are we talking?" so I hope there's room for two in the gutter.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Pneumatic tubes would be awesome. I feel like having messengers take four hours to bring a diskette from the 13th to the 15th floor is a step backward. Not that that doesn't happen TO ME ALL THE TIME.

Our wings are not tired.

Yep, the candidate that promises more cabana boys and pneumatic tubes gets my vote every time.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

House: If Daddy was using testosterone cream, why did the little girl have too much estrogen? Also, could that really happen? At all?
