Actual thing I yelled across a room of 115+ middle school kids: "Stop touching her."
Sigh. I would like today to be all done.
'Day' is a vestigial mode of time measurement based on solar cycles. It's not applicable. I didn't get you anything.

Can you walk right off and still go back tomorrow? (Emergency at your apartment, maybe?)
I am trying to breathe deeply. I have a clusterfuck on both coasts right now, and it's kind of my fault, only "my fault" in the way where "I've never done this before and nobody wanted to show me how, so I followed the piss-poor directions and I'm trying not to punch you all in the neck for e-mailing me every five seconds about how I'm doing in wrong."
And then there's fandom.
It's a special day of specialness.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
If I did not desperately need to continue receiving paychecks, I would quit my job right now. That is the kind of day I am having. I would walk right off.

Look, if you're going to go out, go out in a blaze of glory. Just open the box and follow the wee man's lead...

Please include Bob Bryar, Trudy. I have the feeling we're going to need him.

Sheeeeit, girl, he's already on a plane.
You think he didn't hear the Chicago Alarm? He'll grab two dogs on the way out of O'Hare. You'll each eat one while he takes apart the office with his free hand.

Okay. I didn't kill anyone and I have fixed everything I can. It is quitting time. On the bus home, I'm going to listen to some hardcore thrash metal and read Jane Austen.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Daisy, my favourite source of offensive T shirts has gems like this. You might find something there.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Happy Birthday Tom!
Gotta pack tonight because we head for Toronto tomorrow morning. We're driving, which could be....interesting.

You know the saying "A lack of preparation on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine."?
It's so lovely when it's not waved in your face. I mean, it's true, and I try and not let my slipups become someone else's problem, but still. It's a relief when someone is willing to rev up their urgency to match me catching up.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I've got a question about the Stand Right/Walk Left rule. Is that true also in places where you drive on the opposite side of the street?
In Australia we do Stand Left/Walk Right.
