"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

ita, I watched the Unit last week and was yelling "he stole your shit" when he gave it back to her. I also wanted to know why she didn't get the guy's card or something. but, that would have ruined the plot device.

Did you watch his week?

What is even happening?

Kat, I'm sorry.

Oddly there was a "happy" ending, but I don't know what it was.

You ate her liver with fava beans and a nice Chianti?

Foo. As if another demonstration of transitions =hard is needed.

eta: I guess that could apply to the coyote news too. Urbanization, natural territories all that stuff...

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

I really had to get back to the capital quickly so I'm not sure I had time to fry her up. In fact, I'd just been looking for taxi service when one guy sent me to another place and the preacher had his way with me. The town hooker saw me after I'd burnt them all to a crisp and offered to give me some clothes. It was about when I was asking for something less revealing than the leopard print swimsuit she was wearing when she went postal.

Brains are weird.

Haven't seen this week's yet. I'm almost grateful my TiVo's been fucking up channel changing (top IR transceiver got knocked out of place, and I didn't check until just now) since that means less TV waiting for me.

How did I do this work thing before?

Okay, gotta shower and get out of the house.

"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty

Granted, I stayed up far too late last night, but today's people seem to be either so staggeringly stupid that I can't be bothered to mock them for it, or their requests are so incredibly labyrinthine that I can't freaking parse them. I'm only halfway down my coffee cup, and I'm already grabbing the monitor and growling, "ENGLISH, MOTHERFUCKER."

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I've now made out a 25-item to-do list for today/this week. None of the items include stuff like "find a new job". I suppose I need a 26th item....

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Are you okay?

I am mostly. I'm just bemused, I think. She's going because she's hurt and upset and I get it. I was an ass and what I said was tactless and hurt her feelings. But COME ON.

How did I do this work thing before?

You kept thinking, "oooh! paycheck!"

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

I've tried to suss out her logic on more than one occasion, but mostly it just makes my brain leak out of my ear. She's really just a parrot for things she hears on Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck, and I don't think she's got an original political thought.

Well, that sorta' makes sense, in that part of Limbaugh's shtick is that all liberals are really communists who hate the rich and big corporations and liberals want to control your lives blah blah blah. According to Limbaugh, environmentalism is just one more tool of liberal commies to attack big corporations and bring about a worker's paradise. Run by liberals. Or something.

Right! Man, I got used to being my own kept woman.

Notice I'm not actually showering, or anything.

Going. Really. Now.
