I get confused. I remember everything. I remember too much, and... some of it's made up, and... some of it can't be quantified, and... there's secrets.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

And now she's talking about how she did a good job with her children. Which is in direct contrast to previous conversations, where she's said things like "this is my fault. If I'd been a better mother, you'd be a better daughter."

CRAZY LET ME SHOW YOU IT.

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

My parents are very clear that they didn't do a good job. In fact, they told me when I was very little that they intended to do it right with my sister. More recently, they've said they'd like another shot with grandchildren.

Can someone please tell George Will that his car is not, in fact, his penis?

Also, trains are awesome. You know who likes trains? Sheldon Cooper. They are that awesome.

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

When I was around 10, my dad would often tell me I wouldn't make a good parent. That's really the only comment about parenting I can think of. Oh yeah - my did did tell me once he was never complimented by his father, as sort of an apology for not complementing me as much as he should have.

Oh, vortex. So sorry.

I am at jury duty. Waiting. Praying I get something quickly that is over quickly. I didn't realize I had to come Tues-Thurs, not just today. Argh.

I would love to take the LSAT for people! If it weren't completely wrong and stuff.

Um, lady? You sent me a list of first names. How am I supposed to send them meeting invitations?

My mother has always been very clear that she did not *raise* her children. She tells everyone she dragged us up.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

People do that to me. Or they'll say, "Set something up and make sure you invite Jim."

There is no Jim on my team. There are likely 20 Jim's in this building, and I've no idea how many in the whole company. You wanna narrow that down a bit, slick?
