And the thing is, I like my evil like I like my men: evil. You know, straight up, black hat, tied to the train tracks, soon my electro-ray will destroy metropolis BAD.

I'm so sorry, Fred.

In weird me me me news, we are considering purchasing a chest deep freezer for breastmilk and maybe food that can be microwaved for when kidlets come home. Sure...we have neither crib nor cradle but we might have a deep freeze.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Fred, I am so sorry. {{Fred, Hubs, Teddy}}

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

Fred, what they all said, especially the part about not needing to be strong here.

Sara, I guess that wasn't me after all. Because I sure seemed to have that headache all night, right up until the bit with the two percoset.

Skipping and poking head to post that, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is Vortex's birthday.

Happy birthday, Vortex! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!

Also, 5 years ago, exactly, was the first Buffistas F2F.

Jilli and Plei make me laugh. Because this particular case isn't, but we do have strategic alliances with y'all, so I'm not at all surprised you hear the same "language".

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Happy birthday, Vortex!

Crap. Where do I view my temp files? I made notes in a document that was open in webmail, and now I don't know where it is.

Nevermind. Found it, thank god. Only thing worse than a 5:30 am conference call is a 5:30 am conference call that you lose all your notes from.

Wait, that's not right. Only thing worse than a 5:30 am conference call or a 5:30 am conference call that you lose all your notes from is a 5:30 am conference call that is now weekly for the foreseeable future.

Unrelatedly, gronk.
