I would accept your assistance, particularly if you were wearing the sensibly fuzzy hat!

You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Thanks for the vote of confidence, Laura.
That time-lapse is beautiful!

Hey, lisah! When you come around, who is your dentist? (Maybe I'll get lucky and they are on my plan. I hate throwing darts at a wall to find a damned provider.)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Yeah, paying 2x a month doesn't save you much, but it can stabilize your cash on hand by synchronizing income and expenses a bit, which I like. I'm actually on the every two weeks payment plan because that is how DH gets paid, and it makes financial sense in a highly theoretical years down the road sense, but it's mostly comforting for me to not have to feel like a whole paycheck is immediately spent on the mortgage every month. My bank has the policy that the payments have to be a month ahead before they will start taking the automatic payments, which it took me a while to figure out - the wording on the web site is that payments have to be current, but they mean a month ahead - and that was a lot of money to pay out initially.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You think it was a generation/gender thing? Or was it my hat?
It is quite a hat, to be honest.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".
Man, I so wish I could IM while grading. This is BORING.
This is so true!

All you teachers need to do what my parents did: make your kids grade papers for you! Of course, this only worked because for mom, she was teaching first or second grade when I was in my teens. With dad, it gets a little more iffy because I was grading college students starting in my very early teens. However, just his 101 classes and I knew most of it by osmosis. (Still can't believe he let me!)

All the catfood I have that I can't feed my cats any longer is coming in handy in feeding my neighbor's cat. (Miss Louise, or more properly, her granddaughter who is staying with her/living there/I don't know, has a cat.) Their budget is really tight and she wasn't able to get more food tonight. So I gave away some more that was tucked into the back of the cabinet. I'd meant to drop it at a shelter, but this is as good a cause as any.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh yay! I just got an email that a friend of mine had her baby at 4pm today. I was literally just wondering about them this afternoon, so she must have been in labor right then! Eight pounds, born at home, named Zoe. Yay baby!
