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

Production database is down...cannot do most of the things I need to do right now, and one of my backup tasks involves one of the DBAs. I'm guessing he's busy right now. Hrrmph.

Boss gave us a direction on the sort of stuff I need to learn to maximise my chances of being kept on. Damn. Lots of stuff. And the sort of stuff I need to find someone to share with me, too.

I hate the whole prom concept, but I hope someone down there throws an alternative alternative prom.

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

I can't decide if I'm willing to try the place my mother, grandmother, and aunt all go. At least it's cheap!

Do you want to look like your mother and your grandma? That would be the first question you should ask yourself.

I keep waiting for Ellen to throw an alternative prom.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

OMG that would be awesome.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Bummer.

Atlantic Rowers Disqualified With ONE MILE Left in 2,500-Mile Race

Two British rowers who spent almost three months racing 2,500 miles across the Atlantic had to be rescued after hitting a reef less than a mile from the finish line.

Phil Pring and Ben Cummings, who had been at sea for 76 days, were disqualified from the Canaries to the West Indies race after they ran aground.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Do you want to look like your mother and your grandma? That would be the first question you should ask yourself.

Right. The answer there would be no. But there are decent Yelp reviews from people who don't seem to be in their 60s or 90s...

Yelp is just riddled with octagenarians! That's why there are so many hits for prune danish and trusses.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

My aesthetician quit or was fired, and I don't know where she went (if anywhere). So now I need to find a new person to rip the hairs out of my legs and dye my eyelashes. Meh. I'll live.

I keep waiting for Ellen to throw an alternative prom.

That would be awesome. Maybe she could get the Glambert to play for it.

If he can find a permanent, full-time job, my nephew's planning on buying something in Detroit and fixing it up. Apparently you can buy a house there for $15.00 and a litre of ginger ale.
