This conversation inspired me to eat one of the peaches I got at the farmer's market on Sunday. It was a white peach. It was VERY juicy, there is juice on my tshirt now. It was good.

The best peaches need to be eaten over a kitchen sink, IMHO.
That sounded dirtier than I intended. I'm having Glenn Close images now. (I always wondered how she never got stabbed in this ass by a fork or something during that scene. My personal ass-stabbing experience has perhaps heightened my sensitivity to this danger.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
You all know there's a product out there to help with the difficulty of eating fruit! It's juice, with fruit bits inside. So much better than hard-to-eat fruit!!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
So much better than hard-to-eat fruit!!
And less with the fibre.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
But it has fruit bits! BITS.

Actually, this reminds me of my rage at I think it's V8, with the ads that say "people who have five servings of vegetables (or whatever) lose weight. But it's hard to eat that many! So drink our juice!" I'm pretty sure eating vegetables helps you lose weight because it fills you up, unlike the juice...

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb
The 11th floor is the first floor where I have rights to open the door.
I guess going up, it really doesn't matter if you don't have access to a floor you don't work on. But going down, in case of fire, well, I guess you wouldn't want to stop off on the 10th, 9th, 8th, etc. and I'm sure you can open the door going down, just not up. Still, I'm kinda boggling. I guess that's what working in a much taller building will do for you.

Definitely a kitchen sink type peach. There may have been slurping involved.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I decline to answer the fruit question, just to be ornery.
So there.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Should I start keeping my carrots in the counter, a la tomatoes? The fridge makes them so weird.
How do you mean, weird? I would think carrots kept at room temperature would be apt to lose moisture and go all limp, but maybe they wouldn't and keeping them on counter would be fine.
