Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Ah, so everyone is icked, rather than gronked. Or mostly icked.

I'm ready for it to be lunchtime now.

I'm exhausted. And my head is all stuffy.

I'm ready for it to be lunchtime now.

Me too! Mostly because I have a delicious homemade meatball sandwich. Mmm. But I gotta get through yoga first.

Tommy, I have left the car without driving it for two weeks and not had any problem with the battery. If you want to make sure, just drive it once before she gets back.

In terms of checking it, though, the engine is on as soon as you turn the car on, it's just silent because it initially runs off of the electric part of the engine. You can push the "info" button on the steering wheel (you may need to push it twice) to see how much charge the battery has.

But seriously, I don't think you should sweat it too much.

I also have actual food! Though I'm kind of jealous of your sandwich now. But I have orzo with ground turkey, arugula, feta cheese, and dried cranberries.

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

In terms of checking it, though, the engine is on as soon as you turn the car on, it's just silent because it initially runs off of the electric part of the engine.

Yeah, that's what I thought (although I was using "engine" to refer only to the gasoline engine).

You can push the "info" button on the steering wheel (you may need to push it twice) to see how much charge the battery has.

Ah, that will help. So if the car is buried in snow I'll just do that instead of driving it.

Okay. I guess I'm confused, then. The engine won't give you any more information or power when it's running on gasoline than it will when it's running on electricity. It's all the same thing.

Anyway, glad to help!

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

I think it had a lot to do with the woman who was wearing it. She wore the dress, it didn't wear her, etc., etc.

I thought it was utterly fabulous (note: based on red carpet pics only), but that was for exactly these reasons. I don't imagine the upcoming prom season will suddenly be Mermaid-O-Rama or anything like that.

I'm ready for it to be lunchtime now.

After you eat, you should swing by my office and help me unpack files!
