Gah. She says to start off every evaluation with a positive. What if I can't find one? How do you guys survive?
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

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

Now tagless for your comfort.
But I can't mark her down for her beliefs.
That's a pity.

Theoretically, I don't think homosexuality not being a choice is a *belief*, but that's the smugness of my position.
She just so proudly presents the fact she's never met a gay or trans* person. It's icky.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

That she knows of!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ugh, sara. Genius bar seems worth a shot at least?

Heh. The last time I went to the Genius Bar, the nice guy who helped me was named Matt Freake.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Shit, sarameg. I hate that feeling so very much. I hope you get good news.

You guys really aren't talking much. What's up?
I'm in the Kingston airport on the way home. Free wifi is so very civilised. So are patties.

Patties, yum. I'm sorry you didn't get to stay longer. It sounds like it did you a world of good to be home, and your family to have you home. And, from the sound of some of the conversational topics, the opposite of dull!
So far my Sunday consists of making cornbread, which is yum.

Corn bread:
This is interesting. Basically says big banks (mostly talking about/to BoA) are counting on online banking and bill paying customers to stay despite the debit card fee because of the hassle of moving all that somewhere else. [link]
Every bill I pay is online, but it's not such a huge set-up that I'd stay just for that. I get inertia, believe me, but in this climate, I wonder whether they're counting a bit too much on it.
