Does it smell like bacon too? Mmm, rain of bacon.
I go online sometimes, but everyone's spelling is really bad. It's... depressing.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Nothing like a shower of salted fat.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You've come 'round!
I've just done all the distraction I think I can accomplish tonight, in sad lieu of painkillers.
Finishing off my dinner of grapes with a dessert of strawberries, and then I'll try and fall asleep in front of the TV.

Are we taking the breat at 3am your time or mine?
Your time - that'll only be midnight for me.

You've come 'round!I feel like a celebratory round of bacon.
And then strawberries.
But not together, because I am not a freak or anything.

This was my sister's first hurricane, and they spent hours getting ready for it. Her report was that rain might have leaked in under one patio door, and that she broke a mask denuding the verandah.
As for the outside, one banana plant has gone to a better place, and an avocado tree has lost limbs. Otherwise they (and the friends and family she knows about) are doing okay.
I was frankly surprised to get through when I called, but she sounded like she relished the distraction--they have no power, so she was curled up around a transistor radio listening people call in so that their Auntie Betty would know they'd gone up to town.

So good to hear, ita! Also, astonished that this is your sis's first hurricane. She musta been abroad quite a lot?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Glad to hear things are relatively ok.
When Mr. Jane told me about where it was hitting, with relief (cause we were keeping an eye on NO), and I freaked a bit, he couldn't understand why, then went, "Oh! A buffista?" He keeps forgetting that in addition to the people I've met, I have other friends from all over the place.

The status is NOT quo.
Glad your family is okay, ita.
