Simon: I'm trying to put this as delicately as I can... How do I know you won't kill me in my sleep? Mal: You don't know me, son. So let me explain this to you once: If I ever kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed.

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

We should meet for lunch at the Apple Pan!

Oh, only a lame burger from the place downstairs. Bought an hour ago, about half finished as I work through lunch trying to reconcile conflicting data. I spent the morning running around on medical stuff, so I'm trying to be an extra good girl. But time never flies when I do that.

Still, with the data reconciliation it does look like we're right. That's some consolation. Question is, do I call out the people who are wrong, and if so, how wide an audience?

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

I would hire a clown to come tell them. (Balloon animals might make them feel better.)

Wheee. I now have people who want to fly me out to Arizona. Seriously.

I'd say today has gone pretty well.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Whereas I was just coming in to ask who else is looking askance at the day and wondering why it has to be such a hater.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

My day has been uneventful adn for that I am thankful. I have gotten through some lingering work from last week, organized some things in my life life, and addressed a load of work adn personal email things.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have turned on the lights in my apartment, so that's something.

Who wants to fly you to Arizona, Sara?

Arizona! Fun. I think Lori is going there in a week or two.

I'm halfway done! YAY ME! But I am also procrastinating. Boo me.

Awesome baby toy! [link]

Perhaps a pacifier?

That might be an awesome pacifier, if that's what it is, tommyrot. Right up there with a certain baby I know who is using a steel cock ring as a teething ring...

I actually don't expect it to happen (there are others I'd recommend first with fuller knowlege,) but whatever. Nice ego boost.

It's people who are trying to set up a similar operation to what we have. And since we're technically open source, there aren't any conflict of interest issues.
