It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

It's a law firm, I think, but nobody who works here is named any of the names that the law firm is called.

Not that atypical for an old firm; those people are dead.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I used to work at a place where the reception desk had a panic button - seemingly a few people had wandered in off the street and scared the receptionist. It rang in a back area where a large, former Marine sat. Great idea. Only it was out of sight, so she could press it with her knee ... which she did several times. Often enough that when someone did come in and hassle her and she hit it on purpose, no one came.

It's the LITTLE things that always trip you up.

call me jacki; zuisa is an internet nick from ancient times =)

Ooh, I suppose.

I don't think anyone has their own line, so I do have to forward all the calls, but there are very, very few of those.

It's honestly the easiest money I've ever earned, so I promise I'm not complaining. The whole place is just... odd.

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

Leaked naked pictures of Scarlett Johansson.

No, there's no link. I'm not actually interested.

Because books.

I really want to have to stop putting the A/C on. Come on, fall.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just got flowers delivered again! So nice! From my mother and her friends who I gave a tour to over the weekend. I don't know if they just didn't coordinate properly or what.

Aurelia, I'd love to go, but this week is just packed so I can't. Damnit.

I did get a message from my claims adjuster last night; the car is totalled (yay!), but I don't know how much they're going to give me for it yet. Depending on what time I get into work tomorrow, I'll be buying my Mazda either tomorrow night or Friday night.

I do have to make a stop after work tomorrow so I can drop off my grandma's pearls at the jewelers for appraisal. I'm also going to drop off a ring that I'm not too sure if it has real stones or is just a costume ring. If it's costume, I'm going to start wearing it every day, because it's really pretty.

Mom, Jesse is having all the flowers!
