I'm a little concerned about the order in which those two things happened, Scola.

He is too young for chocolate.
Hmm. I can't wear adorable clothes or make people's days better just by looking at me, the way he does. I'll just have to owe him some treats, then. Hopefully to be given to him personally, some day in the future, when he's older and I'm across-the-ocean-er. And then, I'll share with him. How's that?
Liese, you had the perfect excuse - you were too busy balancing the universe.
[Edit: wait. If Tom were drunk, is it possible he fixed the same toilet twice, and just saw it double?]

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I fixed my own toilet yesterday, which would make me feel all manly and useful, except that it was broken for a year, and I broke it even worse before I finally fixed it. When I was at the bar tonight, I noticed that the toilet wouldn't stop running, and I saw that the thing-a-ka-bob was detached the the hoosie-whats-it, and I fixed it too.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Huh. I got a voicemail yesterday that my cable company is changing the channels tomorrow or some shit, so I might need to reboot my box, and just now I lost Food Network, but none of the other channels I've tried. WTF.

Liese, you had the perfect excuse - you were too busy balancing the universe.
I'm going to use this excuse for everything now.
Tom, you're on a roll. Why stop now? You could have a whole new manly toilet-fixing persona!
Jesse, it's because they're out to get you.

Okay. Now I need to go grill bratwurst and all will be well with the world again.

You can reboot your box by holding down the power button on the front of the box, Jesse.

Oh, I've rebooted many a time, I just think it's funny (and/or a sign that They are OUT TO GET ME) that I just lost the one channel that I was trying to watch. When I stand up, it'll be to go to bed, anyway.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
It's the second quarter, and the Saints are up 21-0. They might actually win a game.

I don't usually watch the Food Network, but I'm watching now, and some guy with lots of hair is making gnocchi. Shouldn't he be wearing a net or something?
