Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

I'm really thinking we should find you a personal pharmacist.

Hot water's out. Blearg. Always after 5 on a Friday. At least I don't have to be up and clean anywhere tomorrow.

I'm really freaking out over monday. Have a visitor coming. No idea what the protocol is (uh, here, use our free wifi!) Was I supposed to request a desk? Can't he just use the public areas? And no matter how we've phrased it, their expectations are WAY TOO HIGH and unreasonable. What they want to do in a week? Will take at least a month. There's no way around it. And an onsite visit isn't really necessary, but they seem to think so. It's all "you want this?OK?" goes away for an hour or three "OK, here are the scripts you need to run. Have fun!" AHrg.

My sinuses have a new trick. Shooting pains down to my teeth where I've had work done. I'd think it was the teeth, except it is only related to my sinuses doing the weather boogaloo.

God, I'm cranky.

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

I'm pretty sure the way to make people love me is to nag them about their workout routine. That's always welcome feedback, right?
Yes. The sporking is how we show our appreciation.

I also went to Seattle twice, and NY twice, and Denver once.
Portland doesn't even rate a mention? I ask you, is that nice?

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

Well, the pharmacy delay means there's no point going back to work. Which was 50/50, but my boss seems to like a Friday pm sweep. Ah, well. At least he did see me.

Nasal narcotics. Weird.

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

Do you really want to start a discussion about visiting? I could bring up San Jose.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Oh dear god I am bored.

I mean, I have a bunch of pain in the ass work I'm procrastinating, but it's REALLY BORING pain in the ass work.

But at least I'm not in the sub sub sub basement with the Morlocks. So that's something.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yo, is there any reason not to leave my leftover dinner in the cast-iron skillet to reheat tomorrow?

Does it contain tomatoes?

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

If the food is acidic (tomatoes are particularly bad), leaving food in cast iron causes big reactions with the acid in the food -- rust on your dinner and all the seasoning gone from your cast iron!

On the plus side, it's not actually unhealthy.
