I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Hi all! I am drowning in work, but hello! Happy birthday to ND and CV!

Weekend plans include: editing ginormo report, grading, laundry and other assorted house work. Maybe sleeping or bathing if I can figure out how to fit them in.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hi Burrell!

I especially love that the dad immediately knows that it was his fuck-up.

OMG, no I don't want to have a meeting about a project that I won't be working on! Because I will be GONE.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Tomorrow, Kick-Ass in the morning. Then I need to work on the show I'm directing for the medical writing conference next week. Then I'm having dinner with a friend from college I haven't seen in, like, six or seven years. She came to see DeathPlay but didn't stay after. We might see a play after dinner since the restaurant is right by the EXIT.

Sunday, conference!

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

I think one of my co-workers is on drugs. He's all loose-limbed and silly jokes.

Okay, it's nice, and it's fun, but who is he all of a sudden? He's supposed to be shy guy. He was shy when I got here.

Vendor guy, why are you avoiding me?

Maybe he's just a slow-to-warm-up guy! And/or it's Friday.

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

Or maybe he's full of beans today.

I've been here six months. He's never been this way in English before. And trust me, I've tried to draw him out.

I may not share, but I do cajole.

It must be the beans.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Maybe they are "magic" beans?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Maybe they're really magic! Who knows?
