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

Technically it's more like a hole in your hai

No, it's not a hole in my hair. My hair was 2mm long. It's a 1/4 inch tender dent in the back of one side of my skull. It has nothing to do with my hair, other than work out how to get the to, I dunno. Leaving it full won't even things out, not at the lengths I wear my hair.

There is a simple explanation, I'm sure, for why it feels like bone (with some muscle over) all around it, and *in* it. I can't work out how this could be a swelling if everything's hard. Not scar hard, bone hard.

Anyway--I'll leave it in the hands of my doctor, and he'll touch it, and I'll want to throw up again. It's a great nausea button. Everyone should get one installed.

I'm just using it to get myself to stop drinking soda, and it's working, so, thanks.

It's weird how easy it was to just stop drinking the other stuff--do you have a carbonator? Because that's transparent. I want to carry one in my bag next to my tea kit. I'll be serving your beverages today--would you like hot or cold, mmm?

Yes, it was astonishing to see Dawnie all grown up but not so much to see her playing crazy - she seems to do that now. Also - sad about the non-badassitute of Beth Riesgraf's character and her death. Poor Spencer.

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

I'd have to figure something out to get hanging out time, but that can probably be done.

Cool. If you are there long enough to get a meal break, I could come to you and bring food, if we can make the timing work out.

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

I relisted 8 things that did not sell int he last ebay bunch and it looks like at least 4 of them will sell now. Whoot!

My big boss is out today and I really need to plow through some low-urgency work so it does not get lost in the shuffle, but I am taking a few minutes this morning to just wallow in the non-harriedness.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

ita, every once in a while I see white sweet potatoes at the grocery store. I don't know if they're exactly the same as the ones you're thinking of, though. I used them a while ago in a recipe for a stew that called for plantains, but I couldn't find plantains, and they seemed like they'd give a somewhat similar flavor and wouldn't affect the color of the stew like the orange sweet potatoes would.

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

That would be amazingly good, Lee! We'll see what we can do.
