No. And yes. It's always sudden.

I imagine the cheese-avocado is a major project in the Taco Bell labs.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I had a berry almond chicken salad at Wendy's and I'm going to say it is AWESOME!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Oo oo! Is muffin vs salad going to be the next big buffista debate? If so, put me down for salad. I love salads, love to make them, love to eat them, and can't recall the last time I had a muffin.

If you could put a cheese-avocado in a Dorito taco, food nirvana would be achieved.

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

I don't know that I prefer muffins or salads in general. I am pretty sure than when I want a muffin, a salad would not satisfy, nor vice versa.

Exxxtreme food nirvana, Tep.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

If you could put a cheese-avocado in a Dorito taco, food nirvana would be achieved.

Seriously.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Happy Birthday, Frank!

Our weekend experience was that in-between "not good, but I don't feel like I can complain because so many people have it so much worse."

Our power went out about 11:00 Friday night, came back on about 2:45 Saturday afternoon. Meanwhile, Hubs decided that we'd "evacuate" (his word) with the cats to his brother's home. Which involved driving 40 miles. Each way. Twice, because we couldn't fit enough carriers and litter boxes in the car (and we don't have enough carriers for all of the cats). To the accompaniment of much pitiful meowing.

And one of the cats, Cat Ballou (familiarly known as "Bally") is semi-feral and, on her good days, barely tolerates getting petted. We tried to get her first. Long story short, she ended up staying home, and Hubs ended up with a number of lovely scratches.

Bally ended up staying home. Of course, with plenty of (dry) food and water.

By the time we found out we had power, it was too late to get back home on Saturday. So, two trips back on Sunday.

As I said, unpleasant. On the other hand, we are back home with power.

Are her parents Doctor Who fans?

Nope.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Are her parents Doctor Who fans?

If by "fans" you mean "people who are dimly aware that such a thing as Doctor Who exists," then yes. If by "fans" you mean "people who could name a single character who has ever appeared in the history of Doctor Who besides the Doctor, whom they may or may not believe to be an actual physician named Who," then in all likelihood emphatically no.

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

Because I got angry at people here (yes, apparently you will need to recompile--why in shit's name couldn't anyone have told me this last week? I have to get in your face and point out I've been asking the question for days and *need* to know if there's a requirement for a Java developer--it's frustrating how many things have ended up in the project plan because I kept asking the same question over and over until I got a different answer--it's pretty obvious no one is paying full attention to it when I send it out for review. I need to walk everyone through it line by line, and even then, sometimes they don't talk) I took a random tumblr break, and now I've ended up in a space I don't even understand. It seems to be "social justice" and "trans women perpetuate rape culture" and it's miserably fascinating.

I dunno. Tumblr isn't a good place to get angry.
