Note to self: do not cancel some random fucked up print job belonging to someone else when standing in front of IT director's office. It's a legit thing to do (that job was never going to print!) but it is probably bad form....

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Oh good heavens. I didn't realize it had made that much of an impact on her. She was darling.
She actually homeschooled her last semester and then took the GED, she was so desperate to get away from her high school (she's still living in Sacramento, but the culture at her college is a lot broader and she's found her tribe -- she probably won't live there long after graduation, but for now she's pretty happy).
eta: And she still treasures the business card you gave her.
(Also, her personal style has shifted from nondescript boyish dark clothing to full Technicolor Tokyo Pop; we saw a very, very toned-down version on Easter, and it was flappy-hand and wordless-geeble-inducingly adorable and weirdly lovely.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It was here that the lost cellphone discussion was, wasn't it? Nicole pointed out the idea of an I.C.E. contact in Bitches--In Case of Emergency. Apparently it's well-spread in Britain. Would also work as somewhere to get the phone back to, in case of loss.
Oy. Why must specialists be so damned special? I'd really like him to get back to me sometime today.
And I'd really like something to suddenly be the perfect not too sweet, not too sour drink. I need my homemade lemonade, except I'm not at home, and even there, I've not made any. All the stuff out here, in the world, is all off.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Bleah, I'm a bit congested and my throat hurts. I hope it's not con crud...

Paul and I were Lee's entourage at Sparky's wedding.
That worked out very well, in my opinion.
And the "band" from the night before the wedding is growing up: [link] (same link posted earlier in Bitches)

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
That worked out very well, in my opinion.
I thought so too.

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

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The correct answer to the "what to drink?" question turns out not to have been Odwalla Pomagrand, at least not at 100%. And at $4.25/bottle? Puh-lease. Still, diluted, might last me a good long while.

Ha! Look who's talking! If I recall correctly you have a baby at home who is constantly surprising us with her growth!
