Cordelia: I get it now. You're all spies. Probably all Russian. And you've brainwashed me, and want me to believe we're friends so I'll spill the beans about some nano-technology thingy that you want. Gunn: So I look Russian to you? Cordelia: Black Russian. Angel: That's a drink.

Free pita and hummus is a win!

As is chili and avocado. Send me some through the tubes, would you? I've still got a couple hours more work to do before I can knock off today.

Also, had my first mammogram today! Due to family history. It was not as squishy as I feared, though possibly because mine don't squish much. It was very fast, and they said they'll mail results. They only just called me to schedule it on Wednesday! Madness.

Our wings are not tired.

You win, Jess, mos def.

From Billytea's link:

"There is an opinion that A-quality guys will find B-quality women, B-quality guys will find C-quality women, and C-quality men will find D-quality women," says Huang Yuanyuan. "The people left are A-quality women and D-quality men. So if you are a leftover woman, you are A-quality."

Hey! I am officially an "A-quality" woman according the article!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

All I want to eat anymore is hummus, but I keep resisting buying it at the supermarket, for fear of eating the whole thing in one go. So yeah, Jess, you definitely win.

Also, I am totally A quality.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

It seems every person I know that has traveled recently has been sick upon return.

I've been home for exactly one week, and I was in TX not FL, but if I come down with a cold now, I'm going to blame Laura.

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

::head in hands::

My reputation may have exceeded me on this new project with the new people. Yikes.

Anyway, end of business.

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

The people left are A-quality women and D-quality men.

And those get put together into sitcoms. Right?

Friday night chicken is in the oven, all is right with the world.

I submit According to Jim and The King of Queens as evidence supporting your theory.

My SIL is now the new District Manager for LaPetite in Alabama!!!

It'll be announced to the staff Tuesday, but she officially got the job. They'd been stringing her along for so long (she'd been Acting AND director of her own school for practically the past year) that she was prepared to walk if they didn't promote her.

She's already got her eyes set on Division VP...

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Emmett's having a pretty good day today.

He was crushing the ball at baseball practice, and I finally got a look at the girl he's been seeing and she's super cute. He's still over at her house right now and it will probably take a prompting phone call to get him to head to BART and back to the city.
