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

Where did you buy yours, -t? I might get one for the family as well.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I choked on my dinner sandwich tonight and J had to do the Heimlich. It was just like they tell you it will be-I couldn't breathe or talk, and he did the squeeze and the food popped right out, Sadly, it did not fly out of my mouth dramatically or anything. I'm fine, but a little hoarse. J is pleased as punch with himself.

I think I probably speak for us all when I say that I am pretty damn pleased with J as well!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Yeah. Good work, J!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OMG, Scrappy! I am also pleased with J!! And glad you're OK.

ita, not-t, but when we had a zoku, it was a gift from williams and sonoma. It and it's sibling that was purchased for a friend both self destructed in the respective freezer and the white coolant inside leaked out.

Yikes, scrappy!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

J is a superhero and he may need a cape for the day, ijs.

The tired is eating me from my bottom. Poor noodle at work who has been dealing with an office short one person for going on 6 months or something - his wife had a death in the family and went driving to OK last night to get to the family and had a car break down, so he had to go get her and didn;t get to bed until after midnight. His workday starts between 5 and 6, including every other Saturday.

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

Wow, Scrappy! Hooray for J and the Heimlich!

I got mine at Williams Sonoma, too. I got my brother a different brand, Back to Basics, maybe? I haven't heard enough back from him to compare at all.

Give the hubs a pat on the back, Scrappy!

-t, I will be thinking on that for a while. May have other questions.

I love this conversation:

me: Goddamn Johnny Depp as Tonto.
them: Native Americans are fine with it, though, so it's not offensive.
me: Not these ones: [cites]:
them: Ah, well, you can't please everyone.

Wait! Is it offensive now or not? I can't keep track of this outsourced outrage! There's a middle road to drowning out the affected party and refusing to react unless it's directly about you--are you really going to wait until prompted before deeming anything offensive? Can we not start thinking, pattern matching, researching, LEARNING, ASKING?
