ita, I've found that when I'm sick and have little appetite, tum yum (lemongrass) soup with no meat or tofu works pretty well to sneak a bit of food in. Not super nutritious, but it's a little better than drink-type fluids.
That's insane troll logic!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I wish I could drink. I'm looking at my water with distaste. I swear, last night at dinner I filled up on my meds. Which reminds me, shit, I haven't had today's yet.
There is Thai near here, so I will cross my fingers for the soup.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Good luck, ita.
Even single, he's bad news. Stay away from people you live with. If it doesn't work out, it's AWKWARD.
Seriously -- I have a friend who had to move after breaking up with the guy downstairs.

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'm assuming tum yum is the same as tom yum? Which is in fact yummy. Usually it's at least somewhat spicy.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

But she wants to move ANYWAY!
Go for it. He marinated for you.

Kingdom, Phylum, Class... Meet Giant Reptilian Worm Monster
One mammoth example of an organism improperly classified by Linnaeus' ranking system is the Amphisbaenia or wormlizard, a creature resembling an earthworm but more closely related to lizards.
Ewww... don't click on the link if you might possibly think a giant worm thingie is gross....

I HAVE MY BOY LOLLIPOP STUCK IN MY HEAD. If memory serves, that's Hec's fault.
Well, took the morning meds. That's a start. Steroids really supposed to make you go off your feed? Or is it the Percoset?
Oy. I would truly like a FF button for today. Not to rush towards anything fun, mind you. Just something I want done, and I would like to stop thinking about doing.

Okay, I looked at the painting, and it's most definitely a mermaid.
But after reading the description of the "old man," I looked at the picture again and instantly saw some strange, giant caracature of Keith Richards leaping out of the water to menace a passing sailing ship.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I know someone who was the innocent third wheel in a terrible break-up between apartment-mates and both halves of the couple ended up leaving after months of fighting and not speaking and slamming doors. She chose her next two housemates predicated on the them having other relationships and being unlike each other, to avoid any future tsuris. Of COURSE they ended up dating and getting married. It was a shock to everyone who knew them--people were literally betting during the reception on whether the marriage would last longer than six weeks. That was 15 years ago and they are still happily together.
In conclusion: Love: It's a crapshoot.
