At least I know who to blame now.
Buffy. When I saw you stop the world from, you know, ending, I just assumed that was a big week for you. Turns out I suddenly find myself needing to know the plural of 'apocalypse.'

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
No need to blame! But you can also disregard many "awards."
I am reminded for some reason of my college philosophy professor who thought Mother Theresa was the worst person in the world, since he thought she was helping the poor for the glory of it, not just because she actually wanted to help. My view? She's still helping!

See, but, her award means that she's better than me, and that what she tried to do to me was perfectly reasonable behaviour. She's been validated.
I was beginning to get pissed off at the co-worker spitting and swearing in Spanish ("punta madre!") but he's just switched to ("this is fucking insanity!") English so I don't have coyness to call him on anymore.
In a meeting Monday I almost swore in patois in an environment where no one would have known the difference, but when I realised it I could do nothing but blush, and hard.

Crazy enabled talk.
I want food. I just don't know what food. Do I buy fruit on the way home from work and eat it with some popcorn a la bacon salt (yeah, baybee!!!) or try something that has a more traditional approach to food groups?

I always vote popcorn.
I'm waiting for my neighbor to call me so we can go get a drink, but now I'm hungry! We said 7-ish, and I left her a voicemail a half hour ago. Meh.

I need food. I have bacon in the refrigerator, so I need to make something to put the bacon in.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I bought myself a surpise. One of my coworkers bought himself three surprises.
We're all ridiculously excited about the surprises.

I consider the entire world a bacon delivery system, yes.
