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

Joss' name is Joe. I mean, it was. He changed it.

I learned all kinds of things about communion wafers that I didn't know I didn't know. (I don't think I'd ever seen one before, and the pictures in the link to the website selling them didn't look anything at all like what I'd been picturing in my head

Well, we usually had those boring styrofoamy machine punched kind. But once a month we had actual yummy hand-made bread-y bits. That was delicious. Like, crumbly whole-wheaty dense bread. Mmm. I always hoped we would not be at the back of the church and they would not run out and have to go to the emergency supply of styrofoamy communion wafers, those weeks.

(Note they tasted especially good because my dad was old school, adn did not allow us to eat anything for at least an hour before Mass, and Mass was at least an hour long, so we were usually pretty hungry by the end...)

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

A co-worker is exclaiming very loudly that she wants to work from home twice a month so she can better search for jobs during the work day.

Way to go to ruin it for the rest of us.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

But once a month we had actual yummy hand-made bread-y bits. That was delicious. Like, crumbly whole-wheaty dense bread. Mmm.

Someone at my chapel at college made those bread-y bits! And we even got red wine instead of the usual yellow vinegar. SO TASTY.

lisa, the last thing I have from you is from about 10:30 or so, querying on whether to take the lightrail (which I haven't replied to, but yeah, that's probably the best plan.)

Nothing is in my spambox.

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