Woot! Two 22-inch monitors are coming to my desk! More room for movies on Sundays when things are slow!
Oh, and Windows 7, which shouldn't be too bad, but I will miss XP.

Connie, Win 7 is awesome. I think you'll like the switch.

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

I think my biggest age gaps have been 12 years, in either direction. I could be a textbook cougar again. I got nothing against it. The word doesn't bother me--I understand that the strict application of the term is supposed to apply to hunters. But I'm more of a gatherer.

Ha! So your conquests are "firewood".

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
So what's the formula for determining at some point if you + person = cougar hunting?
13 years difference, I opine (entirely ex cloaca).

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I just tried to explain the whole Gus thing to my DH. It's hard to get all the backstory included in any kind of coherent fashion. At least, I failed at it.
My therapist referred to Older Woman Syndrome during a recent session. My husband is three years younger than me. I like Cougar better than Older Woman Syndrome if there's a choice.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Some jackass ran a red light and t-boned my dad this afternoon. Dad's ok but his car is borked and he is shaken up pretty badly. They took him to the hospital for x-rays and some other tests. I think he'll be alright. Hope the other driver has decent insurance. Dad just managed to get his car fixed from where my niece wrecked it two months ago.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Which I read as fasted die Gus.
As did I.
As a feminist, I have mixed feelings about the term cougar. As potentially applied to myself, I think it's hilarious, because I am definitely more of a gatherer than a hunter. In my head, anyway.

Cool, JZ.(do you think you could introduce us, or am I just getting dork all over everything right now? Not that I'm expecting to Take A Meeting, but I'd feel weird saying "Hi, Professor, I believe you know one of my friends in the box." Even if I didn't say "That's what she said." (Flips bird to Fast Eddie Lazar-Gus) I mourned you, you crazy motherfucker. I mean, not at any tormenting length...we were just invisible friends, but still. You are a special kind of asshole,sir. Depart the internet forthwith. You cannot be trusted with your connection. Relinquish it to someone worthwhile. (turning to all the cameras)
