Wesley: I stabbed you. I should apologize for that. But I'm honestly not sure how. I think it'll just be awkward. Gunn: Good call. Wesley: Okay.

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

My bras are full of breasts. If there's room in there for a phone, I need a different bra. I've never quite understood that. Also, I always know all the things that are touching my breasts at any given moment. It's one of the inventories I track with a bit of care, but little effort.

As much as the busty girl comic can be the story of my life, that's where she loses me.

I can't believe there's still one more work day to go.

But yesterday was very informative--my boss seems to be calm about the scope of our project, and the major (NDA) one I'm involved in looks to be going smooth as silk, and learning that one of the golden child Senior Business Analyst got reamed harder than I ever have and is still chugging along...no one is treating him with kid gloves or as if they think he's going to set the place on fire.

I don't think I deserved the chewing out I got, but it's good to know it really doesn't seem to count against you in the day to day.

Ann, that's a ferret.

chris, it depends on what you're looking for. The main collection of Smithsonian museums is on the Mall, although there are a few in other parts of the city. Here's a map of the museums, which are generally east of 14th Street. And Here's a map of what's west of 14th Street.

For first-time visitors to the DC Mall, I usually recommend taking Metro to the Smithsonian station. Use the Mall exit from the station. When you get to the top of the escalator, take a few steps forward (so you aren't blocking other passengers) and turn around. The Washington Monument will be in front of you, and it's a great view. From that spot, the American History and Natural History museums will be on your right, and the Freer Gallery will be on your left. THe Capitol will be behind you.

From there, it depends on what you're interested in. If you're interested in Asian art, the Freer and Sackler (they're connected to each other as well as the African art museum by underground tunnel) are must-sees. The Hirshhorn is modern art. Most of the others have pretty self-explanatory titles.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I think the difference is the smooshability of said breasts. I can fit a lot in the bra, because my breasts are pretty smooshy, and the items justpush the breast down, not the cup out.

I never have pockets, so I actually regularly keep keys and phone in my bra.

Mine are malleable, but their volume doesn't alter much. And keys? NEVER. Sorry, no vacancy, please try another branch.

Good lord. I finally looked up that "Fred and George must have seen some guy named Peter in Ron's room on the Marauder's map the whole time and not said anything."

I'm gonna guess they didn't really--so what do you do with something like that when you're parsing a story. It's a plot hole JK didn't address in the books--do you decide it means something, do you write fixit, even if it's only in your head, what?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yeah. Keys are pointy.

So all the actual museums are on the Mall now? It was the one building south of the Mall that said "Smithsonian" that was confusing me.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Me, too.

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

I've got gappy enough cleavage in the bra I'm wearing right now that I could carry keys in there comfortably, but I rarely need to carry keys when I'm not carrying a purse anyway. So, no actual experience with that. I have on occasion tried tucking a phone in, but that is neither comfortable nor secure.
