Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

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

Annoyingly, spelt is a word in American English anyway. Get crabby about learnt, or dreamt, or something, spellchecker.

Today is wear chainmail to work day, if you're keeping track.

Art Crawl!!!

Spelt is two words! It's also a kind of grain.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Annoyingly, spelt is a word in American English anyway.

It doesn't recognize quinoa either. And I've just learned that quinoa is not actually a grain, and thus I can eat it.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Chainmail ... some days I could really use that. Or full plate armor. (veteran of public transit)

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

Today is wear chainmail to work day, if you're keeping track.

I have no chainmail either! Can it be polka dot day instead?

Because books.

I sense black latex day right around the corner.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

One shouldn't wear clothing that makes noise to the theatre. (Ha. Spellcheck doesn't like theatre.)

I just got promotional email from AARP. That is so NOT ON.

It's too late to consider your submission for today, Perkins, but I will take it into consideration for tomorrow.

I'm not sure I have work-appropriate polka dots, now that I think about it. Perhaps I need to go shopping...

We are not supposed to wear black, white or gray. I only own black pants, I think.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

We are not supposed to wear black, white or gray.

I was going to say, To work?!?!?! And then I realized probably no, not to work. I think your pants don't matter.
