Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yikes! People, mang.

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

What the hell?!? That sounds like the most passive-aggressive move possible.

I know, right?

I told her (she called to ask me to look after her cat an extra few days) that I SO WANT her to get a references call, so she can laugh hysterically in response. Likely will not happen, but given the apparent sense of judgement of this individual, I have my hopes. "It just isn't a good fit." Yeah, well, with that kind of move, pretty sure nothing ever will be a good fit for her. She had almost 6 weeks to figure that out and maybe give them a clue? Which she didn't.

Also, fb hates me. Won't let me post or anything. Database issues.

Which are plaguing me today.

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

So Angelina Jolie is supposed to be makeup free in this picture and a number of outlets have picked that obvious lie up and run with it. What? She's clearly made up. It shouldn't take Jezebel two weeks to mention it.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I want to eat All the Things.

I probably shouldn't though, should I?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I am eating ice cream right from the container, so I recuse myself.

Mister Kitty just leapt up in my face and said "MROOOOW."

I think that's an assent to y'all.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

sarameg, my optimistic side was thinking "Maybe she had a horrible family situation" but honestly, a 3 am email "This isn't working out" sounds like "I got drunk and emailed to quit cause I'm a big coward."

Dude, woman up, call in and face the music.

Punishingly Intricate

meh in a mood. Really wanted a burger and beer for dinner but couldn't waste farmer's market produce and shouldn't be indulging like that so made chard/quinoa fritter things and they were good but not satisfying and I'm still hungry and grumpy. Plus other stuff is just annoying. wah wah wah thanks for listening
