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

I think I was born on a Sunday. Tomorrow, coincidentally, is my birthday. I plan to buy myself cake.

I got a raise. I can never leave this job, no one else would pay me this to do what I do.

oh, sarameg. My sister in well-compensated pain. Eeyore is, like, my totem animal.

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

Cashmere was born on my father's birthday, which I consider auspicious. Also Margaret Thatcher's birthday, which is ominous. Marie Osmond and a litter of our puppies, which is neutral to cute.

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

I guess the first rule of a merit raise is that there is no such thing as a merit raise.

t drops dead laughing

(mind you, the difference is only 14 cents per hour-- and extra $291 per year.)

Sure, but it makes next years merit raise come off a higher base. You know, assuming there is a merit raise...

And don't forget Chris Carter. And, of course, me and Matt the Bruins Fan.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!

Yeah, Friday the 13th not such a thing to be avoided as far as I'm concerned, since I get treated to dinner, pumpkin pie, and presents on some of them.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I was born on a Sunday. The same day and year Marilyn Monroe's body was found. So if she was murdered, I have a perfect alibi.

My brother was born on a Friday the 13th. On the plus side, meant I got cake occasionally (but no presents). On the minus side, I got a brother that I never got along with.

I'm sure you can blame Chris Carter.

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?

I was born on a Monday. That actually explains A LOT.

Monday's child is fair of face. That totally works for you. I was born on a Tuesday, whose child is full of grace. Totally NOT me.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Yay for raises, sarameg!

I can't decide what to do next, run errands, finish up the washing of the couch slipcovers, or clean the toilets. Yes that's right, each task is drearier than the last.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Thursday's child has far to go. I know, dammit, but WHERE?
