Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You should have seen me in the library, trying to remember her name. I know it was the same initial twice... Finally I went to a computer, and still didn't have enough to search for her, until I remembered keywords! I think Baltimore + mystery did it.

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

I called a guy out recently on repeatedly using queue as a verb. It was really weird coming from someone with an American accent. He said he'd lived in Amsterdam for a couple months. Which explained...nothing.

OK, new tropical storm forming off Africa. Name is Igor. Such a name brimming with good omens.

If NC has to get hit with a hurricane this year, I hope it's named "Igor." Hurricane Fran caused problems, but the name suggested sassy waitress more than 37 deaths and millions of dollars worth of damage.

Dude, I just found my department $5000+/month of money they had not gotten re-imbursed for since January. That more than covers their costs for keeping me on as a consultant.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I'm in my 3rd week. My nieces/nephews are already in their 5th week of school.
