My day was fine, until just now! Aaaughh!!!
Actually, my day is still OK, but my tomorrow will probably be more aggravating than I expected.
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I feel mildly guilty now for eating all the avocados.
It was you who drove the price up, huh?

Sorry you caught my aaugghh!
I think my foreseeable days will be more aggravating than I expected. And what's worse is it's my own damn fault. Oh well.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Do y'all sprout all the avocado pits? I do it almost compulsively and now I have 5 little trees (out of many many pits, my failure rate is quite high, which is where the compulsion to keep trying comes in), so maybe I should stop. But if I ever get excess fruit on them I will work on Buffistas care packages (I have no fruit on them thus far, they are tiny little saplings, some not even in dirt yet, this is a long term plan).
My Accountemps interview went much better than I expected. Turns out I was looking at the wrong number on my assessment results and I actually did pretty well. We'll see if that turns into jobs.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I really wanted to, but I tried the once and it didn't work. So I quit.
Apparently persistence not one of my strong traits.

I sprouted one once and then couldn't figure out what to do with it! But I'm not really one for plants.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I wonder how an avocado tree would do in the Northeast without a greenhouse.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
If you are looking to hand off some of the sproutings, I know of a back yard you can try.

In that case, maybe I will keep sprouting them. Then when my porch is full, I'll export. Did you ever decide what to plant in place of that plum tree, Lee?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I like avocados, but usually get my fix in restaurants. I'm not sure I'd be able to tell a ripe one from a non-ripe one.
