Nora, you have my phone number still? And can you call me or send me yours? What time does your flight get in?
I'm supposed to deliver you to the Master now. There's this whole deal where I get to be immortal. Are you cool with that?

Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
That sounds great, Hil. I'm glad you did better on the interview. Even if you don't move on, you'll have a little more confidence going forward. But hopefully you will move on! Because you're awesome and academia needs you!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Holy crap, it's on the cover of the 96 Hours section. I need to go buy a copy. Where do people buy newspapers in this day and age?

Uh - the newstand.
Kidding.
Drug stores, grocery stores, book stores, convenience stores - they all usually sell papers.

One of our floors gets the paper, so I went and got the 96 Hours section. So cool! I may have to get another copy.
I think newstands only exist in TV and movies. And Watchmen.

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

And Los Angeles. I have at least one within walking distance of my house.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
They're all over the place in NYC.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
W00t, P-C!
Good luck, Hil!
Thanks for the support, folks. Harvey finally produced, and I've got his results. Good news - he's free of infection. The not-so good news is that they did find struvite crystals. I managed to impress them so much with my knowledge of feline nutrition and the treatments for uroliths, that they only mentioned Hill's Prescription food once. The plan we agreed on was to continue with the high quality canned foods, continue adding water to it (I had slacked off on that a few weeks before he got his UTI), and hold off on other treatment (methionine supplements) until he shows symptoms.

Thank you notes for interviews sounds like outer-space fiction to me
Interesting...not doing them sounds like fiction to me. After an interview, do you do any sort of follow-up?
Funny, this interview, I sent a thank you note to the few folks names from first interview that I remembered. No responses. But apparently I wow'd them.
