Yeah, but you're an amateur fry cook and I come from a long line of fry cooks that don't live past 25.

TURN IN YOUR MANUSCRIPT! For lo, you are awesome and you are a great writer and you need to get that shit in the can, yo.

Huh. That might have been an unfortunate mix of metaphor. This is perhaps why you are an awesome writer and a published author and I am not.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Yeah, Allyson, get your shit in the can!

You know Liese, that really sounds more like a Bootsy song title. You might be more of a bass player than a metaphor wrangler.

ALLYSON, TURN IN YOUR MANUSCRIPT. DO NOT MAKE ME (gently) LECTURE YOU WHEN I AM IN L.A. AT THE END OF THE MONTH.

And if the threat of me lecturing you isn't enough, I'll sic Pete on you. He will give you one of his infamous tough-love pep talks.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Le sigh. I did not make the finalist round in the science blogger contest.

Bah. What better way to turn your day around than to turn in your manuscript? What a feeling of accomplishment you will have!

Get that manuscript turned in Missy! If I have to say it again I'll use all caps!

This might be true.

Gorgeous garden, Gud!

Allyson! The blog post was wonderful. I voted for it, and I don't generally bother to vote for anything. Now gird your writerly loins and go get your manuscript done!

I'm all gung-ho. I just got back from having my butt kicked at the gym. I can benchpress and deadlift 55 pounds! Wow. I mean, for me? that's amazing.

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
