Go Mac, that's fantastic!

You guys, I am so excited about that Neverwhere cast list, it's kind of ridiculous. And it made me realize that I don't have the original version of the audiobook on my iPod, so I need to fix that tonight.

Grandma would call Aunt Jo dozens of times a day saying she was in a weird hospital and it was time for to leave and whatnot.

Hah! Yeah, that's kind of where we are, except my mother's angry at all the kids, so she's not really calling us. The staffer E just called, and said that Mom's sitting next to the door with her bags packed.

Still waiting on the haldol prescription. This keeps up, I'm the one who's going to need it...

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

The idea that Mac is recognising someone else's priority/reward structure and working towards that instead is so remarkably cool.

A little less remarkable but cool nonetheless--my manager has told me to go home, and I think I'm about ready to do that, considering how long it's taking me to type this.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

The staffer E just called, and said that Mom's sitting next to the door with her bags packed.

People should start asking her if she's unpacked yet.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

A bit of haldol all around, Consuela? I'm sorry. It'll be bad for her for a while. And then it will be less bad.

I hope your mother adjusts sooner rather than later, Consuela.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Sunday is cookie baking day at Casa de Suzi. I'm trying to work up my cookie line up so I can make sure I have the right ingredients. Ginger cookies are definitely on the list. I'm thinking some basic chocolate chip topped with red and green mini-M&Ms. Or maybe peanut butter cookies with the mini M&Ms.

I'd love to find a good, softish, cookie cutter recipe. The last couple of shortbread cookies I've tried have been too crisp and not very tasty.

Any suggestions? Recipies?

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

Hey, since we have official Onerous Tasks days, shouldn't we have Official Goof Off Days, to balance it out?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Good idea!

Also, how about Official Inebriation Days too?
