I'm so evil and... skanky. And I think I'm kinda gay.

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

It's good to know that my boss is more reasonable than I am. He told me to get off the 8 o'clock con call and get my tire taken care of. Hopefully I can make it into the office for the 10 o'clock the 8-12 was coinciding with, then, and do that instead. Today's a little busy.

Hurry up, tow truck!

Hmm. I should work out where it's towing me to. And I *really* should have had a spare, since the Jetta has room for a full-sized spare, and all. I just never replaced the last one. Bad car owner. I was just broke at the time, and then completely spaced.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Augh, I just did something that tweaked how Outlook displays my messages, and now I can't get it back.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Sophia, I'm dealing with that on my own Facebook page as well. I'm totally irrate.

ita, I'm sorry about the flat. That seriously sucks.

Because books.

I loved your response to it, Cash.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I'm happy to report it has not yet shown up at all on my FB.

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

This is one distinct advantage of only having a FB page so I can play online scrabble. Sure I miss stuff, but on the other hand, I miss stuff.

it was decided that the library should be involved in Bring your Children to work day this year, so I am hosting a research problem/scavenger hunt in the library.

Wheeee

Punishingly Intricate

You love a scavenger hunt, Perkins, right?

Now I'm kind of bummed we don't have activities here! I could show the kids how to "look busy" and other handy office skills.

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

I could show the kids how to "look busy" and other handy office skills.

Heh. You could teach them to Alt-Tab to a spreadsheet whenever the boss comes around....

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I have a spinach, fennel, and beet salad, with orange miso dressing. This is possibly the most perfect combination of flavors ever. I think next time the dressing should have a little more orange and ginger and a little less miso, but this is very close to perfection. (Also, the salad should have more beets, but I got tired of cutting them after a while.)

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.

(Also, the salad should have more beets, but I got tired of cutting them after a while.)

I've been wanting to try some beet dishes, but I've been nervous about the mess of peeling and cutting them. Do you have any tips, or is it just not as bad as I've been imagining? (which is pretty much CSI Veggie Tales)
