Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

They pay me in WOIMS

Steph, I would be way more passive-aggressive about it.

Because books.

That's awesome, Tom. (The Google thing *and* the therapy news!)

I can't believe he actually said "there will be one more stray on the streets," Tep. That's just ... really?

Ugh, Steph. HULK SMASH. That shit ain't right, on many levels.

I am taking a mental health day and watching Leverage streaming in via Netflix- OMG THIS SHOW IS AWESOME.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ugh, people.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

hee, Tom,

Wow, I guess he is stressed out and scattered. Why not just keep the cat inside for a while. If things are so crazy it may not be the best time to try and deal with getting the cat fixed.

I can understand not having it in you to deal with having a pet, but don't just let it go! Bring it to the damn pound!

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

Oh, god, Tom, that site is brilliant.

Steph, that's insane. I get asking for info instead of googling it--I've done that enough times myself. But the throwing the cat out like trash ultimatum? Heinous. And not a cute joke, if he was joking.

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

Steph, that is just fucking aggravating.

Heh, mama bulldog is snoring up a storm. [link]

I'll google almost anything except medical stuff. Then I try to get someone to google for me and then point me to a site that won't scare the crud outta me.
