That's seriously strange, Daisy!!
I'm supposed to deliver you to the Master now. There's this whole deal where I get to be immortal. Are you cool with that?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
YAY Dana!
But it's mostly about boys doing delightfully inappropriate things with their tongues in public.
Seriously.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I know! It frustrates the hell out of me too!
Ok. My boss is going out of town tomorrow and big boss is out of town, so I have to run the staff meeting Friday. I hate staff meetings, or at least weekly ones. Once a month is probably fine. We always go over the same stuff, the same things are said and all that. It takes time away from actually doing the things the staff meeting is about.
I'm thinking of doing a fill in the blank quiz with the outline and if everybody passes-no staff meeting.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I can think of at least one friend who will say things to me like "Man, white people," and I'm looking at her and wondering how being able to speak Spanish made her not white. But I can be narrow and dictatorial at times.
I'm having food ordering issues. Two branches of the same cafe keep insisting I want the same thing--toasted bagel with cream cheese. Even when I want an untoasted bagel with butter. Ordered "sesame-seed bagel with butter" and the guy cheerfully sliced a bagel and put it in the toaster. I reminded him about the "didn't say toasted, did I?" thing and he fumbled it out and said "Cream cheese?"
No. Butter.
Guy at the cash register charges me $2. "Bagel with butter?" I ask. He nods, and rings up the sale. Then he says "With cream cheese?" No. Butter "Butter?" Yes. Butter. And then he gives me extra change.
Weirdos.
Congrats, Dana!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Jesse, that made me laugh on the inside, but not smile. and by laugh, I mean laugh AT you.
Hmph.

okay, I'm applying for a job online. You have to attach your documents. They have a spot for curriculum vita[sic] AND resume. Am I supposed to upload both? or the same document twice? I mean, is there a meaningful difference?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
They may not remember, ita, since the untoasted state is anathema to true bageldom. And putting butter on it is adding insult to injury.

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

Not to mention that they're about three thousand miles away from any actual bagels.
