Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Congrats, Tom. You are a man of substance. Also? Cute.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Wow, Tom. That's fantastic!!!

And--what Scrappy said. One of my favorite pictures I have from the Madison F2F is the one I took of you outside the Mustard Museum, just grinning in your Scola way.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Way to go, Tom!

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

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

That's awesome. Of course now I have an earworm.

There's this guy I've known for a while, mostly as a good friend of my friends and one of the patrons at the bar where hubby works. He's sarcastic and catty, but mostly pretty friendly. Turns out he's a big ol sweetie.

Exhibit 1)I posted a link to this [link] on hubby's wall asking if he would get it for me. This guy brought a copy he had hanging around up to the bar for hubby to give to me. I have always regretted not picking one up when I saw it ages ago in a bookstore.

Exhibit 2) He sent me this [link] on FB message, apologizing if it was inappropriate and saying he knew I would appreciate it on many levels.

He also promised that he and his friend would represent for me in NO for Mardi Gras this weekend. Love!

Good for you, Tom! Isn't that a great feeling? I can't say I know it personally, but paying off my car loan had quite a thrill to it.

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

Charlie Sheen quotes in the mouths of superheroes. It makes even more sense now. Okay, any sense now.

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

I heard a mashup of Charlie Sheen quotes set to music, with his voice autotuned. Crazy. People have too much time on their hands.
