Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

...At least you had a nice time away?

You're testing your spellcheck's learning skills, aren't you?

That said, that's an epic amount of crap, and I know how you feel. Last time that happened, I said fuckit and bought a pair of expensive shoes. Because I was already bleeding money, right? And then another tooth broke. So learn something (I'm not sure what) from me. I'm just waiting for the car to barf. Though technically, it has, as I need to get the AC fixed at some point before next summer....

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

I bargained Enterprise $7 down for the rental--boss flipped a lid because none of the employees in my team were at the office today, including him. So I *had* to say I was in tomorrow, which means rental. I wonder if he knows that at least one of the contractors wasn't there either...

Seems like you end up renting cars a lot ita, eesh!

I'm sure some gay woman somewhere has thought you're gay. Why do you want to be thought gay by a gay woman?

Ugh ita, what a load of no fun to come home to.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I'm sure some gay woman somewhere has thought you're gay.

Uh, do I count?

This is what I'm saying! I should get $7 off. I'm a depressingly regular customer.

The one I made out with doesn't count--I get that I stacked the deck there.

Why do you want to be thought gay by a gay woman?

Because they're the arbiters? I mean, being thought gay by anyone else doesn't count.

Uh, do I count?

You seriously thought I was gay? I've had a couple lesbian friends try to use me to troll gay clubs, but none of them ever had any luck. Perhaps their plans were transparent...

Sorry you had to return from good times to that.

I have to say, I did a pretty good job of forgetting about my car...my sister got a new car (her first new car) and I was still able to push my non starter and unknown bill off to the side. My call to not know how much it'd cost was correct--the decisions I made to spend money on family were the right ones.

Kat--that's great about K! Luck is as good as anything else in that scenario--a regular pay cheque is all that's important.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yay! Thank goodness, Kat. I was worried for K.

It's weird when people talk the internetspeak and when they don't. Along those lines, I saw one of my students talking Inuyasha fanfic and I was all YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT FANFIC, OMG! But actually she's totally the right age to be into it, I just had her when she was so much younger it's startling now. And anyway, at some point, I can have an Inuyasha conversation with her.

I've definitely been mistaken for gay by gay women, in my more androgynous days.

Good news, Kat.

May have been partly wishful thinking, but yeah. You came off... kinda butch. Disappointingly stereotyping of me, I know.

I've had a couple lesbian friends try to use me to troll gay clubs, but none of them ever had any luck.

If I saw you (not knowing you) walking through a club with a girl, no way would I approach her. The last think you want is to hit on someone's girlfriend, especially if said someone could totally kick your ass. Unless I'm misunderstanding what you're saying?

The shirts are totally awesome, don't think I said that. Well done.
