I'm sorry. You were going to ask me to choose, right? Did you want to finish?

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Let's just hope those creepy Slim Jim characters weren't waving at the camera, msbelle.

The coming of summer always makes me want to cut my hair, which I did (or rather had done) Tuesday. I can't wear ponytails or barrettes because of my teflon hair.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Allow me to just say FUCK YEAH REDS!!!!!!

Seriously, THAT is how you win a ballgame. Ramon Hernandez hit a 3-run cross-field home run on 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th. Daaaaaaaamn.

Not enough to revisit Firefly

I didn't think you watched it at all.

I gave it a shot when it was on TV, through, I think "Ariel."

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

And hard to know what to do.

I am horrible at comforting. All I am ever able to do is offer kleenex and a glass of water.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I couldn't even do that! I mean, I offered her some water in a glass I had already been drinking out of, and a napkin. I did bring her kleenex eventually.

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

Glasses of water help? Noted.

I can't imagine being in either position at work. I would suck at them both.

I got thrown under the bus into a meeting at the last minute without preparation. I asked co-worker for the one document I was asked for, and she's sent me ten documents that aren't that one.

To make myself feel better, I tossed another co-worker under a different bus. If you won't reply to my emails, maybe when I send it to additional recipients you'll pay attention.

Not my best day. I'm going to print out some more materials and go home and read up for tomorrow.

Yeah, I'd always prefer to keep my personal life trauma on personal time....

Because books.

I did bring her kleenex eventually.

At work, I think most people don't want any more than a closed door, someone to hand them the tissue, and a minute to compose themselves. You did good.

Crying makes you dehydrated, so water. It's also calming and helps you get your breath regulated again.

I prefer to do my crying silently in the last stall in the bathroom like a normal person.

I have absolutely never purposely rehydrated after a crying jag. The things you learn.

If I can't get to my car, this or the emergency stairwell will be my choice. Other people==emotional anathema, especially work people.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Glasses of water help? Noted.

They actually do. Rehydration and the repetitive motion of sipping give you (them) a pause.
