Right. Piano. Because that's what we used to kill that big demon that one time. No, wait. That was a rocket launcher.

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

I spent a good ten minutes trying to work out if there was a reason any of the things *I* was thinking of, working from home, to do to get her the sales order weren't going to work--the project manager also sits next to the business analyst whose job it is to balance the IT books and get the vendors paid (one of the Chrises, actually), and she does this shit in her sleep.

So even if he'd remotely forgotten about the woman he probably talks to every day who's the intended recipient, the woman he probably talks to every half hour--IT'S HER JOB TO GIVE SALES ORDERS TO VENDORS.

Mind boggling.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

This is the kind of thing that only the internet will appreciate, and probably not even then:

This crappy Burt Reynolds TV movie that the husband and I are watching on Netflix just used, as the soundtrack for someone being blown up in a car bomb, about 20 seconds from the "Sanctus" of Benjamin Britten's War Requiem.

Dog Shaming. The perfect tumblr for anyone who's ever come home to find the dog got into the bathroom trash bin again...

Now tagless for your comfort.

That. Is. Awesome.

It's safe to say I get indoor pets about a gazillion less than I did before.

Am watching the body switch movie with Jason Bateman and Ryan Reynolds and...since I switched my dictionary to British English, movie's not a word now? Come on.

I'm watching the body switch film and it's kinda cute, but no one can body switch with me and be vaguely convincing without taking much time off. However, at that point it's trivial.

The status is NOT quo.

Dog shaming is made of win.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I'm writing a piece about an organization run by a Nancy Yancey.

Nancy Ann C. Yancey? If she waltzes at a formal ball she's fancy, dancey Nancy Ann C. Yancey! A friend and I came up with dozens of these one summer. I can't even begin to remember them all. They're more fun spoken out loud.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

If she does it in a horse costume, she could be fancy dancy prancy Nancy Ann C. Yancy .
