"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

One thing I definitely like about getting older is that I'm a lot more confident and secure than I was when I was younger.

Not Giving a Damn is the huge upside of aging that people don't tell you about.

If only I could go back in time and jump a certain guy's bones. So what if he had a girlfriend!

You and me both, Sue.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I don't have a lot of regrets, other than one or two places I still want to travel and a few times I know I acted badly, but one of our previous discussions about regrets here made me realize that one of the things I do still want to do is have a dog, which is one of the primary reasons I bought a house.

Geez, you guys are expensive.

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

NO COMEUPPANCE!

Absobloodylutely.

Shut up and answer my email.

My manager is having a freakout, and while I get it, I wish she would leave me alone so I could just be sick and not feel bad. Instead, I'm doing developers' work because...I don't fucking know. They're not doing it themselves. And I don't mean development, I mean things like "Well, why don't you call [so and so] and ask him about the code he wrote? I told you I DON'T DO THAT."

Jesus. That's not even the pain talking. I'm not a .NET programmer. I can't suddenly pretend to be one. So I'm making myself look stupid to support by asking kindergarten questions because no fucking DEVELOPER can work out how to put the ticket in themselves.

Well, nap now. Fuck this shit.

I've always wanted to do that. It's Rosemary Sutcliff's fault. Also, Kipling's

And Dorothy Dunnett's, for me. But mostly Sutcliff.

Connie,

you might even be able to get a paralegal to do the will for way under $1K.

Vegas! Hawaii! Australia!

Since I don't really enjoy gambling, I'm a little meh on Vegas, but I'm totally down for Hawaii and Australia!

(Did I tell you that I found a local place to buy Koloa Rum Company booze? Woo!)

The rumors are that Zimmerman is going to be charged with 2nd degree murder.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

If I travel to a different city for a job interview, can I claim it on my taxes as an unreimbursed business expense?

Always Anti-fascist!

I've always been Ms. Cautious and feel that I missed everything. It's not all my fault, though...there really have been fewer opportunities to cut loose
