Angel: Eve. So, I guess we should, I don't know, talk? Eve: About what? Angel: About what happened back there with us. Eve: Angel, it's not like this is the first time I've had sex under a mystical influence. I went to U.C. Santa Cruz.

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

The point is not that he's capable of doing it, it's that he bothered to learn. It was rare enough when I was a kid, let alone now.

It's easier now. There are a zillion web pages with instructions.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Since husband is starting his new job tomorrow, we're looking at benefits. He is now going to be working at my company. For some reason, it's cheaper for me to get my insurance and him to get his separately, than it is for one of us to get employee + spouse. I don't understand that.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

It's easier now. There are a zillion web pages with instructions.

Once again, the point isn't that he's capable of doing it, it's that he bothered.

Because employee+spouse they assume one of you doens't work there--so they're subsidizing it to the tune of one person. Whereas with two separate policies they're subsidizing both.

I mean that it's easier to bother. You don't need to find someone to teach you. I know a bunch of kids who can do it.

Okay, I guess that makes sense, and I was kind of getting there in my mind.

I guess now we need to figure out if there's any reason, tax-wise or whatever else, we should be on the same insurance situation.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

I find myself struggling with newfound respect for the Bieber, on discovering that he can solve the Rubik's Cube in 90 seconds.

Really? That's...unexpected. I don't know how I feel about that.

Some of the laziest, stupidest and most irritating kids at my school can do it in less than 60 seconds. It's not that impressive. Plus, if you're bored and you don't mind practicing, which practice is something he obviously doesn't mind, then it's no big deal. Or so they tell me.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

At my uni, married couples aren't allowed to do that.

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

Pitfire Pizza? I've been to the one on Washington Blvd. It's yummy

Yes! Why didn't you tell me?

Although I'm very lazy, and I want pizza brought to me. But it was good, worth venturing out into the rain for.

Colin is driving a spaceship right now. A 2012 Prius. It's really spooky.
