Yes, there is. There's a hurry, Xander. I'm dying...I may have as few as fifty years left.

I have committment issues.

Man. I can't even commit to a plan for my birthday next weekend, and it's my 40th.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Allyson, you are welcome to stay at my place provided that the bugs are still gone (no evidence going on 2 weeks now) and mac is not having a moment (they tend to last a few weeks). You know, welcome to my crazy.

The remaining person in SF just called me to say she was leaving in about an hour.

I vote you leave in about 30 minutes, then.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I've never been to the city.

my 40th.

That sucks - you totally should have preempted.

There is no one here today -- a bunch are on furlough, another bunch are at a conference. I think half of the emails I've gotten today have been about our lunch order...

My pumpkin curry was underdone. I am sad.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Should I 1) eat it cold, straight from the fridge? 2) let it sit until it reaches room temperature? 3) heat it in the microwave?

1, 2, or a temperature between 1 and 2. I like my sushi closer to fridge temperature.

I know! I feel just as immature as I was when I was 25.

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

as one who has a wrist tat...just make sure you judge the size and placement so you can easily hide it under long sleeves and/or a bracelet/watch/whatever, and it's actually really easy.

And don't move to a place like LA. I can't imagine relying on sleeves to hide anything--at my last place the woman with shoulder tats sometimes had hers peeking out, but everyone was warned in advance not to mention them because she really didn't like talking about them for some reason.

Which meant I didn't want to talk about them anymore, just about why she didn't want to talk about them, which I'm sure was totally kosher.

I can't even imagine wearing a watch or bracelet that didn't have breathing space during the summers.

"Are you married?" and "Are you in the military?"

Fuckers.

Oh, and 1. Sushi is nummy cold.
