WRT kids reading age-inappropriate books: One of my friends is an Americanist. When her daughter was six, the young girl picked up her mother's copy of Moby Dick and started reading it. And apparently liked it enough to want to bring it to school the next day to finish reading it. Her teacher was a bit alarmed. My friend was more amused, esp when her daughter expressed interest in getting a Quiqueg (sp?) action figure.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Thank you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
You're a giver, is what.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Happy Birthday Nora!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Don't compliment her until I get some pictures.
Thing is, I didn't steal anything from work. And this would have had to be two jobs ago, from which I was walked out, which means at some point prior to leaving I'd have taken docs.
Even redacted I'd feel bad, because it is work product, and it is unethical. I can make up a project plan on my own, but she doesn't want me to apply for that position. Business requirements? You need a business. And scratching out its name isn't enough. Those are proprietary details too.

“Not dead yet!”
ita, in completely different news, I spent part of this morning looking at pictures of Christian Bale to send you.
The Cabana Boys this morning sent me into a nostalgia-fueled listening orgy of 80s music.
While staring at pretty pictures of James Spader and C. Thomas Howell and Andrew McCarthy.
I blame it all on having unearthed the Big Hair pictures from college.
