Oh dear. It appears that I should have called my mother last night, which I had intended to do but forgot until it was too late. I got an "I HOPE YOU'RE NOT DEAD" e-mail.

I got an "I HOPE YOU'RE NOT DEAD" e-mail.

My mother tends to go for the "Did you forget you have a mother" voicemail.

Is there any particular reason you would have died over the weekend?

My dad's SAR had a local journalist tag along on a mock mission! [link]

I guess she heard about the El crash last week. (Green Line derailed. I have never been on the Green Line.) My mom doesn't call me as often as she wants because she thinks she's intruding, which I think is stupid. But hey. Moms.

I don't like to use pesticides, because wasps are usually good guys in the insect world, but if you have a nest near children I'd be inclined towards killing them. I don't seem to have any wasp and bee allergies, so I usually just leave wasps or, if they're in a place that puts them way too close to people, I whack the nest in the middle of the day with a stick. Then they have to rebuild, and sometimes they go elsewhere.

One Quattro Stagione on a thin crust to go, please, Maria.

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

Had I gone with that one, can you see what I mean?

Yes, but I see the two examples as radically different--can you explain why they are similar? How about a definition where a neurosis can be stimulus for a compulsion? I mean, the compulsion are the tasks you execute to relieve the distress caused by the neurosis?

My mother tends to go for the "Did you forget you have a mother" voicemail.

I get that one too.
