For real. Fu*#@! Tino! I know he is behind this email that went out from head office without any notice to us, but identifying as the local contact for a project taking applications away from people. Angry calls and emails I will be fielding now...All TINO'S FAULT.
There are no absolutes. No right and wrong. Haven't you learned anything working for the Powers? There are only choices.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I blame Tino.
This could be a new angle on a Blame it on Rio remake....

Coffee was actually illegal in some middle-Eastern country hundreds of years ago. They feared people would drink coffee in cafes and then forment revolution.
Instead, there was Starbucks.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
And get back to my city stairway walks.
Have you gone up to Alta Plaza Park yet? The view of the City from there is amazing, and there's plenty of sidewalk-stairs leading down into the Marina.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have started inching back into the world of caffeine after a few months of giving it up entirely to see if it helped my insomnia. No luck. So now I'm allowing myself one cup of tea before noon. That can't possibly hurt, can it?

If you have to limit yourself to one, have some fun with it. [link]
I love my tea machine so very much.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Sweet -- we are closing at 2 today!

All that thing needs to be the Perfect Device is a laser that fires into the teapot to warm the tea....

I couldn't justify buying a tea machine. It didn't seem to make things much less complicated than boiling water in a kettle.

I may have launched a kerfluffle at work. I told someone to do something and she ran with it. (Her first language is not English and I think something got lost in translation.) So she wrote to someone else saying that I refused to approve something, and "insisted" it remain the same, when I really have no power to do anything more than "strongly advise." I have to smooth this over somehow, but I am not sure how I won't step on toes.
Can I blame Tino for this?
