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

In a job to which I've worn a corset as outerwear, is a knee length wrap leather skirt too much?

And OMG do I have the post-dilaudid itches or what? I think I'm going to have to change into a looser top.

Is there any method of killing mice wherein one does not have to clean up little mouse bodies?

Pet cat?

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

Get a cat?

Of course, that method has the risk of the kitty depositing the dead mousie on your pillow....

I want to run away and join the circus.

I know someone from high school who did this.

That has not been my experience. We're talking blood streaks, mousy entrails, and the head found elsewhere. Frankly, I'd rather deal with the live mouse myself.

I met a guy who dropped out of his bio major to go to circus school. I'd be all "Bravo!" for him, except when I met him he was teaching trapeze and the world's lamest Club Med.

Moral to the story...don't do it, Dana! I bet they don't have broadband!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My cat is so far removed from the wild that the one time I did have a mouse, he just played with it and let it get away. But he did scare it off!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I know someone from high school who did this.

How did it work out?

She toured with Cirque for a while, married a pole climber, divorced him and then I lost track of her.

Punishingly Intricate

I know a number of circus folk. Friends of mine are in Vermont for a year or so doing circus school right now.
