No, it's shiny! I like to meet new people. They've all got stories...

Natter 54: Right here, dammit.  

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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

My eyes, my eyes!

Babies holding other babies = EXPONENTIAL cuteness.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Ugh, ita. Where are you wrt caffeine? Can you have loads without it triggering a migraine?

Because books.

And the new niece looks like she's grinning! Too. Much. Cute.

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

Where are you wrt caffeine? Can you have loads without it triggering a migraine?

I'm a habitual tea drinker (one down so far), but I drink coffee to treat migraines, and it usually doesn't keep me awake.

First things first--I'm going power nap. And then reassess my life...

Power naps are good things.

My niece and nephew!

So cute.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

This is my favorite discussion of a costume from that link: [link]

...

Zack: It's so horrible it makes me want to buy fifty of them and then get groups of people to stand in darkened alleyways downtown. Like you walk past the alley and you see five of these guys standing around a burning oil drum. You'll keep walking, but you'll never forget what you saw.

Dr. Thorpe: It would be like that part in The Shining where the guy in the dog costume is going down on the old man. There's nothing objectively scary about it, but it's just fucked up enough that it chills your blood.

Zack: Yeah, it is EXACTLY like that. Like you just caught a glimpse of something terrible, but you're not exactly sure why it's so terrible. Some horrible other reality that you had never noticed, but one night walking alone in downtown Chicago you saw them. You saw five sneering hair bananas standing around a burning oil drum.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Our fancy-schmancy coffee machine is broken. On a Monday morning. Unfair! Now I'm going to have to go downstairs and buy coffee from one of those places that (also unfair!) seduces me with tasty baked treats when I'm trying to be good.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Soon it will be lunchtime, and I can eat the sushi I brought.
