Oh my god. What can it be? We're all doomed! Who's flying this thing!? Oh right, that would be me. Back to work.

I had shiitakes sauteed with a splash of red wine and asparagus again. It's gonna be a regular weekend meal while the local asparagus is available. Simple, nothing to disguise the flavors.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Shit, brenda, that's awful. I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry, brenda.

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

I'm so sorry, brenda. Fuck cancer indeed.

Brenda,

oh dear. All I can say is that they have really improved the treatment of prostrate cancer over the years so here is hoping that it is treatable and your father tolerates it well.

I'm sorry.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh shit, brenda. Good luck to your dad!

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

Brenda, I'm so sorry. I hope he can be appropriately aggressive right back.

Teavana is actually the cheaper of the tea stores in that mall--Lupicia was consistenly pricier for anything I was interested in. I tried the Bird Pick in Culver City and it was opaque and twee and the sales people were kind of like Teavana (well, the Teavana of yore, just pushy, not gross) until they all plotzed over the chihuahuas in the stroller with the prospective customer that came in a few minutes off me.

What's wrong with a store that I can read? Also, I don't take tea as medicine (mostly), so less of the label space dedicated to what it can (not FDA approved) cure me of and more to what it tastes like.

I have yet to find my perfect tea store, clearly. This was so much simpler before I cared. I used to buy apple-flavoured black tea by the scoop from some store on St. Laurent.
