Crap. There was a bill I was going to pay today, and I can't remember which one it was. It's not any of the "usual" ones, those are in two weeks. I wonder if it was gas in the cars?
Le sigh.
Am I supposed to be changing my clothes a lot? Is that the helpful thing to do?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Congrats to Amy's brother!
Story Skies photos are amazing. Love the plane-and-rainbow one.

Hub's bar. The second video on this page. Also a little write up. [link]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I feel like I should be saluting Amy's brother, but I know that would be wrong...
Have you people been reading the punctuation letters submitted?? [link]

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
DJ, how fab! I want to go there now even more than I did before!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Jezebel totally makes me feel like I've lived a deprived life. Now they're having a "best pickup lines" competition. And I don't have any.
I know plenty of guys have tried to pick me up, but most of them were really bad at it--although none sucked enough to warrant "worst pickup lines." It's just all kinda boring.
Of the ones submitted, some are sweet, some are creepy, but this one just made me laugh out loud:
Him: As a coworker, I'm an excellent lover.
Me: You're not even that good a coworker.
(we dated for nine months, no one at the office ever found out)
Not least of all because it hits all my "wrong" buttons.

You should come! It is a lot of fun.

I think anyone who's reduced to using a "pickup line" lacks the qualities to "pick up" anyone by their own qualities (or lack thereof).

Read them. Some of them are really charming.
I don't think there's anything inherently "reduced" about a bon mot designed to impress and seduce someone of the appropriate gender.
