Weekend: NCistas (YAY!!!). Sorta-long-weekend (YAY!!!). Catching up on late schoolwork (ooops!!). Ongoing celebration of hub's birthweek (YUM!!). Finishing Rome (sob!!). Reveling in having a phone that actually rings reliably when called (about damned time!!). Breaking my exclamation point key.
This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

That dress looks AWFUL on her, and it's mostly her body being incompatible with the design
I thought it was Joan Rivers for a moment. I've always thought SJP had an unfortunate nose, but haggard is a very good word. Plus she's got protruding veins in her arms, and her shoulders look euw.

My mama-bearness is a moot point. K-Bug got the job. She called them again and they apologized and said she just had to get her work permit and she was set.
She laughed when I told her I was ready to go tilt windmills for her, even though it would all be virtual instead of actual. I know she is a strong kid, able to stand up for herself.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I'm glad it worked out Suzi.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Congrats to K-Bug!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh, yay! Good for K-Bug.
Does this mean I can come buy yummy treats from her?

I have lost my mind, people. Our marketing manager—who's been peppering me with increasingly frequent special requests in addition to my normal workload—sent me an ad layout request at 5:00pm on a Friday. And I sent her the completed file 20 minutes later. WHAT WAS I THINKING?!?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
She's tasted blood, Matt, and she'll be back for more.

Oh, no, Matt. You fed the stray filet mignon.

Immediately after I did it, I realized I should have told her that I might be able to get it to her by Tuesday, and then sent it out last thing Monday night. Scotty would be so disappointed in me.
