Wash: Little River just gets more colorful by the moment. What'll she do next? Zoe: Either blow us all up or rub soup in our hair. It's a toss-up. Wash: I hope she does the soup thing. It's always a hoot, and we don't all die from it.

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

I have never been able to explain my specialty to my parents. I'm going to go back and give content management a shot, not just business analyst in the financial sector...

Okay, this is the best I can do for that, I think. Fuck lack of document, information, but at least I have manage...

I take pictures of words on paper and put it in the computer, along with words and pictures that were never on paper. People need to know these words, and I help manage the different sets of words and pictures and put them in the best places and call them by the best names to make it easy for people to find them and use them.

Huh. Nah, they wouldn't understand that either. Ah, well.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just clicked on random and got this:

I make music using a very tall music-making thing with four long things that go around really fast when you make them go with your fingers or with a long stick with hair. When I am not making music with the music-making thing, I am helping other smaller people to make music with their music-making things. Only sometimes they are larger but not as good at using their music-making things.I am often making music by people who are dead, but who made pretty music when they were not dead.

So either a cellist or a bassist, performer and teacher of classical music. Fun!

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

I haven't really looked at the allowed list, but I did just learn that fuck is on it:

People on the left think everyone's money should be shared around and spent on schools, hospitals and police for the good of all. They want the world to be more just. People on the right think they should keep all the money they make to themselves to spend on crack, women and fast cars. They think it is normal for the best people (people like them) to have all the money and power while everyone else can go fuck themselves.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

People on the right think they should keep all the money they make to themselves to spend on crack, women and fast cars. They think it is normal for the best people (people like them) to have all the money and power while everyone else can go fuck themselves.

That was going to be Mitt Romney's campaign slogan.

Romney/Ryan '12: Crack, Women, and Fast Cars! Everyone Else, Go Fuck Yourselves!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Okay, I actually tried the ten-hundred word thing with my job description, and "drug," "medicine," "medication," "pill," and all their plurals are not in their. I would have thought at least "drug" or "pill" would be.

If it's any consolation, they're in my brother's ten hundred words.

It is like walking into a cold storage unit when you walk into the bank.

Maybe it's their subtle way of letting you know your accounts have been frozen.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Ha, I make music with a music-making thing, too! I would do the whole thing, but I'm so brain addled right now it's not even funny. Had a great meeting; the first where my former student was my colleague, which was awesome. But it was very fatiguing, and I don't want to go back tomorrow. But I guess I have to.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

So, because the site would not let me use "adult" or "goals", I have had to be quite reductionist in describing what I do:

I help men and women learn how students grow and learn. I study the things and situations that help students learn more.

Just enough snow to make travel a PITA. Here's to hoping traffic clears it up enough by the time I leave.
