Absolutely, tommy. Now I'm just wondering if my two weeks is up in two Tuesdays or the Wednesday after, because Tuesday is the only late day at the DMV.
You do well to flee, townspeople! I will pillage your lands and dwellings! I will burn your crops and make merry sport with your more attractive daughters! Ha ha ha! Mark my words! Ooh! Ale! I smell delicious ale!

Now that the shopping bug has hit, Jilli, what was the name of that online store you linked to a while back that had great coats and stuff?
Chic Star? That's where I've been getting a lot of things from, lately.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Merci, Jilli, that was it! ::runs off to look at more clothes::

FYI, I've had the best luck with them by ordering a size larger than my measurements.

So I went to get soup from the soup place across the way, and when the woman was sliding the covered bowl across to me, it tipped over, spilling Jamaican Jerk Chicken soup all over the counter, the floor, and splashing on my black and white houndstooth skirt.
And I'm going to a networking event after work tonight. I'm just glad I didn't order the tomato soup.
Argh.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Uck--does it show much? I hope it wasn't a tomato-ey soup, at best.
I meant to mention--if your version of old is "can't do my normal 3 mile run", well, you're significantly younger than I am, who's never been up for one of those, never mind normal.
Aren't these beautiful? They look like they could inspire so many stories. All their stuff is pretty gorgeous, and it's not often you can see the following phrase:
such notable individuals as Norman Schwartzkopf, Juan Carlos King of Spain, Pope John Paul II and Bo Derek

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oy, Consuela. At least houndstooth is busy?
I'm going to have dinner with my grandmother -- my parents are still out of town -- and I asked her if she wants me to get lobster rolls from the supermarket, and she's all lobster-ed out! I never thought I'd see the day! But her niece was staying with her all week, so I bet they went out a lot, and the niece is from RI, but lives in the Midwest now, so I bet she was psyched for seafood.

Ahg. Meeting hell with bonus phone tag. I'm getting nothing done.

Lobstered out? Does not compute.
I don't remember the last time I had a lobster roll...

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I am trying to download the latest version of Vectorworks on my work computer and the time remaining is bouncing around between 5 hours and 30 hours. *sigh*
