Bad things happen with handles up? The strip is behind my toaster oven, now, and reaching the handles, if they are down, is a little awkward. I thought I had them handles down for a rason but I couldn't remember what the reason was.

I knocked into them and [squeamish font] sent a chef knife plunging through my big toe. But it sounds like where yours are it wouldn't be the same issue.

Owen's very proud of the Lego TARDIS

Rightly so!

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

That is a brilliant TARDIS. Your son rocks.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Well done, Owen!

Ouch, brenda, I definitely don't want to do that! And I should be able to remember such a vivid image, so thanks.

My boss just called me out on chocolate as migraine trigger. Except, it's not. I do have a lot of junk food on my desk though.

Also, fruit. I succumbed to the siren call of mango again, and it's still not good. Less bad than before, but not good.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

You know how baby carrots are really "baby cut" carrots?

I just found a WHOLE HUGE curled up CARROT in my bag. It was really weird.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Isn't your boss misunderstanding how migraine triggers work anyway? As I understand it substance x is a trigger for person y. Though some triggers are more common than others, no substance is a trigger for everyone, and just about anything can be a trigger for someone. True?

There's a pretty funny throwaway joke in Bridesmaids about "the ugly carrot" in every bag.

I got the ugly carrot!!

Tom Lenk and friends are apparently raising funds through kickstarter for a documentary about producing a one man show. They have different levels of support. I think they know no one is going to give them $10,000, because this is your gift:

Tom will fly to your home, wash your car (while wearing lederhosen), perform his show in your kitchen or living room, prepare a meal for you (no guarantee that it will be edible), sing you a lullaby before bed, and watch you while you sleep.

I don't know if everything triggers someone, but there's nothing that says everyone has a trigger. If he sees me eating beef jerky, he'll have a point. But he won't, because things that trigger me start to taste nasty pretty damned quick.
