Oh, I get it. You just don't like who did the rescuing, that's all. Wishin' I was your boyfriend what's-his-height. Oh wait, he's run off.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

This store in NY sells all sorts of exotic Docs, but they seem to be short of clue at the moment.

Guess whose a/c *just* died? Again.

I don't think I can even offer a prize for the correct answer, it's too easy. I'm more shocked by it working than not.

They "maintained" it yesterday. After "fixing" it last week. It worked last night, which is the only time it has been working when I need it to. I don't know if I'm on the replacement list because the "maintaining" guy didn't know. I forsee a visit to the office tomorrow morning. Uhg. At least it is supposed to cool off.

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

Wow. Sweet, Tom.

Hmmph. I wonder how long they've been broken.

Sara, I'm sorry to hear about your woes. It's nice and cool and breezy here, but we'll probably catch on fire any moment anyway.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Poor sarameg. I hope they fix it soon.

I want something exciting to happen this weekend, and I don't mean in the "have to take Ozzie to the vet and then deal with him afterwards" way.

Anyone want to go to Vegas?

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

but we'll probably catch on fire any moment anyway.

Run for the hills! LA is full of Spinal Tap drummers!

You could, you know, try calling them and speaking to a human being. I hear that works for some people.

NO. NO FIXING. REPLACING.

This unit is done.done.done. This has been ongoing in one form or another for two years. They fix one thing, another breaks. Time to go.

Hmm. It's an idea.

Well, not from work, anyway.

I really should have eaten lunch.

You could fill out a DNR form and forge its signature....

Actually, it's been 3 years. But the first year was when I had to turn the compressor off at the breakbox. Jesus. I wonder how many hours I've spent in that office, bitching at people.
