Because books.

All I know is, chicken pox was awful. I had them down my throat and a lot of other really uncomfortable places. Jake was the only one of the kids to get it, because he was just ahead of the vaccine, and I was glad he had a fairly mild case.

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

Fuck. I'm so much more likely to eat if I go into work, because I have a rhythm there, and also there's tasty food made by other people. But I've been a literally trembling live wire (uh, literally trembling, not literal live wire. I don't know how to adjust the scope of the modifier for truth justice and the Buffista way) for at least two hours now, and I don't trust myself driving long distances or acting professional in front of people.

Although I still have that hour presentation to give today that I absolutely cannot get out of. And today is Yes-Man's last day. I need to be extra-attentive to that. Fuck.

Anyway, more Gatorade.

ita, I feel like you need a Buffista care package full of Luna bars or something. My inner Jewish mother wants you to eat!

Do you have anything with sugar? Orange juice, maybe? Or any kind of juice? At this point, whatever else is going on, your blood sugar is probably pretty low, which is going to make you shaky and dizzy.

(My immersion blender died last night while I was making soup. Bear with me.)

It would not be right to buy this solely because it is called Ninja Warrior: [link]

Yeah, I don't think I'm chewing anything right now. I'll keep going on the Gatorade for a while and then upgrade to juice, less diluted than I usually drink it.

This has got to be a publicity stunt. NSFW in that it mentions porn, but it only mentions the word, not any actual porn.

"Hotels around the world have it, so why wouldn't we?" is what Michael O'Leary, boss of budget European airline Ryanair, says about in-flight porn.

OH GOD SO MANY REASONS.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good luck, ita.

My coworker was just saying she was embarrassed by what she was watching on her laptop on the plane, and it was not actual porn

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Isn't Ryanair the airline that recently flew with a window "fixed" with duct tape? (Leading to an emergency landing since apparently duct tape isn't the best way to "fix" a window ON AN AIRPLANE.)

That's a well-run airline.
