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

For some reason, I now have two co-workers whose wives send me Jamaica-related food. My first reflex is to assume I'm exceptionally pathetic, but my second reflex is "Gimme!" and my third is "Thanks!"

I now have dried jackfruit. I didn't even know that was a thing.

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

Hooray for breathing! I am always in favor of that one.

Aw, Dylan. What if, indeed!

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

I had a frustrating morning, so I bought a maple bacon biscuit at the coffee place around the corner. It was pretty nom.

Is this the place in the Bywater? Tom went there after the Sankofa FM on Saturday and had the same thing. Also a pecan square. And iced coffee with chicory.

The Gerald and Piggie costume folks are INCREDIBLY CUTE. They were at ALA when I got my books signed by Mo Willems, and he is charming and personable. Alas, I forgot my camera for that whole trip.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Come and work for Auntie Beeb. Our holiday parties always have a bar. Food tends to be an afterthought.

Auntie Beeb and I have similar priorities.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I'm sorry about the frustrating morning, and I support your choice in making it better, which I hope it did.

Ehh, more car drama. Now I'm just bracing for the estimate. And yes, it helped. And I got a muffin (WHITEY) for my coworker who came and picked me up. And I was already bringing in a big bag of Halloween candy for my crew and everyone in general, so I'm trying to make everyone's day better as I can.

Nora, St. Coffee. So I'm guessing yes?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Good point, msbelle.

That said, at least he didn't create twelve sockpuppets like that girl Jessie did.

... or did he? <gives Tommyrot the side-eye>

I'm a sockpuppet? Huh.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Ehh, more car drama.

Boo!

Now I'm just bracing for the estimate.

May it be at the lowball end of the spectrum.

I'm a sockpuppet? Huh.

Kidding! I was just searching for the name of someone I myself haven't met in the flesh.

To be honest, one of the things I like best about this place is that almost everyone has met another board member at some point--we know we exist.

I was just confused. I was thinking, "Is it because we both live in the Midwest?"
