Sounds like you get a free margarita!
I got stabbed, you know, right here.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

How awesome would Margarita Day be at work. I think it would totally increase Employee happiness. However it would likely tick off customers and cleaning crews.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Hee to the math comic, Gud, and hee to the 20 websites from before the Internet. Except the last one. Ewwww. I didn't want to know any more about that site.

I know where I'm buying my next car, it's even pretty close.
A car dealership in the United States is offering a free handgun with every vehicle sold.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
In commercials for Domino's Pizza, the chain's employees wage a never ending battle against the Noid, a gremlin who delays deliveries and carries a gun that can turn a pizza ice cold. Last week Kenneth Noid, 22, walked into a Domino's Pizza shop in Chamblee, Ga., with a .357 Magnum revolver and took two employees hostage.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
For some reason I swapped the word virgin in for handgun. I'm going to go get some lunch.
Cash, are you at home?

Need to survive the three hour layover in O'Hare first.
Darnit, Cashmere, if I wasn't stuck here at work until 4:00, I'd drive down and say hi! (I've done that when my sister had a long layover at O'Hare--the bar/restaurant at the Hilton makes a handy meeting spot.)

I heard an interview with the dealer on the radio yesterday. He didn't mention his motivation as far as I recall, just his surprise at the proper little old lady who was all "Hell no I don't want a gas card! Gimme my gun!"
ION, I knew some smart highschoolers. But none quite like this: [link]

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I'm getting my hair cut and colored today too, just like Scrappy (only, uh, you know, not just like her because hair will likely stay brown and bobbed although I HAVE been fantasizing about going shorter and redder).
Do you know how hard it is to get a kid to understand how to use a straw?
ha! I find the biggest issue with the straw was getting the kid to STOP tilting the cup backwards. My sister claims her first child learned to use a straw when he was faced with a milkshake--he learned out of sheer desire. My daughter learned by watching her cousins.

I'm at home, the moving dude is tallying up numbers to give me my third estimate. Oh, FUN.
