I can bring a Pumpkin! Oh, wait, kinda want to keep her (especially as she's writhing around derangedly on the carpet, purring and washing) and both of you would kill me.
I'd eat chicken.
What? She killed 'em with mathematics. What else could it have been?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I've never heard of Save the Baby before today, but it totes gets extra points for the name.

Pix, that's a great offer. I love doing a turkey though. The bone weary is related mostly to work. Class sizes of 50 are wearing on me.
Plus, writing a grant. Unfun hard work that the rest of the staff doesn't find useful. I spent 3 hours writing it yesterday and I have a feeling they won't vote to approve submitting it so it's all lost time.

The status is NOT quo.

I just...can’t even. You have more in one class than I have in three.

Speaking of Old Skool, does anyone remember/use Prid? Man, my mom would slap that on EVERY splinter and blister we had.
And we are a loyal Mentholatum family. HUGE jar of it, smeared on noses, throats and chests for colds. Very nostalgic for me.
You know Chris Rocks "Rub some 'ussin on it!" routine? [link] was my parent's 'tussin.
My 'tussin is hot tea with honey and lemon. Got a cold? Sore foot? Nervous breakdown? Spinal cord injury! TEA!

Yep. It's true. And mine are woefully ill prepared, though generally compliant.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
OMG, Community gives me such a happy.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I need to figure out what we're during for Thanksgiving. Possibly not hosting it, go figure!
I have got to get rid of this sore throat. It's such a bear.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Do you have hard water where you are?
Nope, ours is naturally soft. That's not a thing where you guys are? Anyway, I do get some mild mineral buildup, but it comes clean easily with the stainless steel scrubbies I got from Lehmans.
Dude, I am so grateful to be getting this new to us van from Dave's high school friend, but working out how to pick it up is stressing me out something awful. I know she wanted to come to see Dave, so she's driving it up from Dallas to Amarillo. But Dave doublescheduled, so now it's just me getting it, which means I've got to do some finagling because obvs I will have a car there if I drive. So I could fly, rent a one-way from Flagstaff (picking up my car there later with Dave), or pull a road trip with my girlfriends. I would like to do the latter, but suspect it won't come together. The whole thing is just goofy because my sister lives in Dallas and it would have been just as easy and cheaper for me to come to Dallas to get it.
