I like pancakes 'cause they're stackable. Ooo, and waffles 'cause you can put things in the little holes if you wanted to.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Fuck shit up. Entirely older sister endorsed.

Damn right. Because this gets creepier and creepier, and your sister should stomp on this hard.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

sounds to me like this is under "academic misconduct" and the institution likely has a "code of conduct" that I am certain the student has already broken.

In non-crazy work news - my boss's boss called me with my raise information and thanking me for my service to the company. I'm getting a 3% bump, which is apparently higher than the company average. Woot!

In crazy work news - why is it so hard to spell my name right in an e-mail. It is RIGHT THERE...must you change the "i" to a "y"? Really?

Oh, I hate that. Pay attention, people! Something came home from school for Sara yesterday and it was spelled "Sarah". Not on, school.

Also, yay raise!

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

Yup. She has to wait until Monday to find the exact text, and then she's going to send off her case.

She talked about being in a better position to get justice than a student would be, and other stuff that I'd not really be thinking about right now, but I'm either avoidant or vindictive. I'm not good with the middle ground. Our consensus was that she's Jesus to my Batman. In terms of relationships that never happened.

Congrats on the extra money, Suzi (how did I type Sizu the first time?)! And the vote of confidence.

I love when people capitalise my name, because I hate it. I mean, I wonder if they think I wrote it wrong, and it's the only mis-spelt word or poor grammar in the entire document/email/whatever, or they just don't see it.

My CIO took to writing iTA, but she never said word one about it to me. I do entirely prefer the people who ask "Really? That was deliberate?" because I think that's exactly the reasonable response, especially when they don't press me on why. Of course, just taking me at my (uncapitalised) word drives me delirious with happiness.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

she's Jesus to my Batman.

You have the better outfit, hands-down.

Oh, the shirt dress is super cute.

Darn it, I specifically told the guy behind the counter that I wanted a winning Mega Millions ticket, and not one of those worthless losing tickets.
