Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

I got way overexcited while talking about computers with my engineering class. I think I managed to convey "binary numbers are like decimal numbers, but like with 2's or something" and also "MATLAB is way cool" (the second a direct quotation from a student's notes). My work here is done.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Thank you Scola, Ginger, Sumi, Matt, lisah, Gloomcookie, Java Cat and Juliana!

(I think that's everyone...)

I have a meeting in a little bit with a woman who, rumor has it, wants to lure me away to work for her in another part of the Company. I like my current job, but her area may have more long-term stability. I'm keeping an open mind.

After that, I'm going home to make a huge vat of gumbo for my b'day party Saturday.

Cheese and bread = the yum.

If you had time and I had time, ita, I'd say we should meet for lunch.

Also, how do you spell psyche? I mean, is that how it's spelled for the bratty thing you say after you say a statement you're joking about (you look good. pscyhe!) or am I overthinking this?

I spell it 'psych' but in my head I see 'sike'

Well, lisa, that's how a 7th grader spelled it in some writing.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ditto.

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

(I think that's everyone...)

::sniff::

I's go with "psych!" too. It's how the TV show does it.

Kat--one day we will both have time and energy. And there will be lunch. One day I'll be actual friends with people again.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Happy birthday, Jon! (I knew I was missing something today...)

Cheese and bread = the yum.

This week's America's Test Kitchen OnDemand has a kickass version of cheesy garlic bread that I must try out ASAP. It looks so yummy!

Scheduling and lack of energy never means we aren't friends. FWIW.

I'm typing in 6-word autobiographies. And some are fantastic and some are typical seventh grade work. today's favorite is

Happy life, but still in therapy.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Happy Birthday Jon!!
