If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

NYistas, mark your calendars!

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

...and suddenly I'm flashing on Addams Family Values. It's a good flash.

Frank and I are sharing a brain today. That moment when everyone takes an involuntary step backwards is my favorite bit in the whole movie.

Years ago one of my more colorful uncles loudly asked when my parents were going to have grandchildren. I replied just as loudly "As soon as they adopt someone who wants children!" which seemed to settle the issue once and for all.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yay Manhattanhenge! I'll have to go to midtown.

Should I bring a really HUGE bag for which to stuff in as much free crap as possible? Or is that unclassy?

I'm pretty sure that's what is Done. Although you might consider how heavy it will get?

I am making a list of bitches to choke for all the people hitting "Reply All" to an e-mail that someone accidentally sent to the entire Company.

I am going to hunt them down and kill them all.

I'm peeved I can't stay late tonight, because my office is perfectly situated for Manhattanhenge viewing.

You could just smile at them, instead?

The construction guys have finished! The front of my house is looking pretty spiffy... except that now you can focus on the gutters that need redoing and the paint that is starting to peel.

Houses mean never having to ask "What am I going to do with all this lovely money?"

I have three inboxes, and these morons are crashing Outlook.

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

I am mainlining Haribo Happy Cola gummys. dear god, why are they so yummy.

Manhattanhenge

excited - tomorrow I am walking to Central Park after work - I should get some good views. Maybe I'll remember a camera.

15 year college reunion starts tomorrow night. Sad to learn that one of my good friends does not feel good enough about herself to come out for many things. And another friend won't attend until she thinks she's acheived enough. I don't even know what that means.

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

I am short a flash drive. That's an unsettling feeling. It's encrypted, so I don't feel vulnerable on that front, but it's the flash drive I run email from, so I want it back now. I hope it's just at home.

Guy at work introduced me to the crack that is pivot tables in Excel. Oops. This could be a timesuck.
