Love the crabby pictures!
I get confused. I remember everything. I remember too much, and... some of it's made up, and... some of it can't be quantified, and... there's secrets.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
2. Sleep Isn't Just a Bodily Function: Sleep is a biological, physiological system, akin to the cardiovascular system, the nervous system and so on. Like any other system, it is highly variable (some people have weak systems, some people have strong systems), and it wears out and gets more fragile with age
The second sentence makes sense to me, the first does not. And won't really, if you can't point it out in Gray's Anatomy. What are they getting at?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
What are they getting at?
They wanted a nice round number like 5 and just kind of made something up?

With lobster, most people usually just eat the claws and tail, right?
I hear that what they serve in most US restos, if they served it shelled, but most people I know dig into the body too.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Mmmmm, crab. I made a bunch of crabcakes a couple of months ago and stuck them in the freezer. I'll have to dig a couple of them out.

I love Mythbusters, but they really need to let go of the Archimedes death-ray: [link]
Oh Lord. My boyfriend just experienced true happiness and doesn't even know why yet. t bookmarks link
Seriously. The man took a giant Fresnel lens to the beach. Why? God knows. To make a death ray, I assume.

I just saw a guy wearing a t-shirt which I really hope is a joke. It's set up like those college athletic team practice t-shirts and it reads
BUTTE
Pirates
Athletics.
I saw a summer intern here with a shirt that said "POLY PRIDE" which made me double-take, but then saw the fine print that said "Polytechnic". Not quite the Poly that I first thought.

I don't like crab. Or lobster.
In (well,on break from) all day meeting. Which meant me and my boss missed the very bad, no good, horrible news in the morning status meeting we both skipped.
Fun.
Must now do as much of my work as is possible in the next 50 minutes. And eat.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I think that most people, if they order a whole lobster, will eat the whole lobster. I've never seen anyone order a whole lobster and then not eat the body.

Someone just opened one of the fire doors. There is no fire, just a loud high-pitched alarm that WILL NOT STOP. Argh.
