Very convincing. Makes me completely want to put myself under government control. Please take me to where you can make me unconscious and naked.

[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.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Seriously? Not even one serial comma in there? (I know not all of then were, and still).

I should really get some sleep.

Also, in case it wasn't obvious - I was going for a very direct translation from Hebrew into English, in order to keep up with the commas. Of course, it affected the whole text. It looks better in Hebrew, though.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

In my family we call a cute little puppy dog who's trying to seem badass a "Fierce Boy-nas'-di-us". It oomes from one of us kids mispronouncing "buenas dias" but I'm not sure how it evolved to mean a cute dog trying to look mean.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

with my BFF, "looking for Ed" refers to using the bathroom, and we will ask each other, "where's Ed?" to ask where the bathroom is.

it all happened when BFF was in high school, and a friend of hers, K, really had to use the bathroom, so they pulled over for her to pee on the side of the road. It happened to be near their classmate Ed's house. So, as K was peeing, she was hissing "look for ed! I do not want ed to catch us"

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.

Had a meeting with my advisor that actually went OK. Today we were just going over math stuff, not writing stuff.

Oh, and I have sort of completed somewhere around 60 job applications. (I lost count a little bit, because the way I'm keeping track of them leads to a few duplicates if I try to just count. But it's somewhere between 59 and 61.)

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

But it's somewhere between 59 and 61

That's a very mathy thing to say. I don't see between as =, and I'm thinking integers, so I wasn't sure why you'd written it that way, but I need to parse more flexibly.

Somebody tell me to get up and make pie.

I have apples, I have crust, I have small pumpkins, I have Splenda Blend Brown Sugar. And yet, somehow I don't have pie.
