Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Yay new car! What'd you get?

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

Thanks for the offer, Kat. It's more of a this-side-of-town favour, since the ride would be to get me to and from work.

Hmm. Hmmm. I need to think logistics, but have no brain right now. Maybe I nap.

I'm out of strawberries. Someone should bring me some.

See how good I am with the not-actually-useful favour-asking? Gifted.

Though I do want to see Noah now that he's been sprung from NICU. I have to gather my strength.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Thanks for the hugs and sympathy, folks.

I'm currently at Confluence in Pittsburgh, posting from G's laptop. I have bought a copy of paperdol's book from the dealer I gave the book info to months ago. Yay!

A dealer at the Con, Sheryl?

amych, a used Saturn Vue. Yes. I have become that SUV-driving in lieu of minivan person. It's a 2004 with 26,000 miles and it's shiney! K wouldn't let me buy the canary yellow one, but this one is better as it was cheaper, with fewrer miles AND a manual transmission which I love.

Awesome! (Also, my boss has a Vue, which she bought as an SUV-not-minivan mom car, and she loves it. No shame there.)

The woman I coteach with at UCLA has a Vue and I like it a lot. Plus manual transmission is a winner for me, but I'm weird like that.

ita, my offer to help was totally a bald attempt at just getting to see you. And maybe bumming a piece of cake off of you.

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

I appreciate the offer in all its facets. Bumper repair will be a highly scheduled thing. And I kinda gave away most of the cake yesterday.

Today's going to be me sleeping and hoping I can put in a brief appearance at a double-celebration party. Maybe tomorrow afternoon?
