Very convincing. Makes me completely want to put myself under government control. Please take me to where you can make me unconscious and naked.

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

Double posting because otherwise seems crass...

But did you have to double post twice??

I kid, I kid because I love.

I hugged one co-worker. But she was pregnant and it was her last day at the company and no one else saw me. Some people seem to be trying to buy me off, but I'm a high class slut. Not a well drink can of hugger.

One co-worker seems to be working up to clapping my shoulder, but he's a Supernatural fan, so my right shoulder is available for scarce use.

I'm sorry, Jesse.

Did he buy it personally or as part of Amazon?

Personally. My first thought was "better him than Murdoch."

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I'm so sorry for your loss, Jesse. I'm glad it was peaceful.

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

It's so nice when the good essays are really good. Also, it's fun to read student's writing when I'm not assessing it, but looking for that which is unusually good comparatively.

That's why I like judging the writing competition too.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Jesse, I'm sorry for your loss, but glad it was peaceful and swift.

My new friend is a hugger. I like her enough to hug back. Human contact!

There was a guy who was chatting with me on FB the last few days, and then he gave me his number and we talked on the phone for a bit one evening. He's smart and fairly interesting, but he kept talking about sex even after I'd made it clear I Was Not Interested, so I'm sorta over him already. He just messaged me with "FML" and then deactivated his FB account. Huh. I guess I'm supposed to call him and inquire with deep concern what happened. I think he's misjudged how much I care. He's a bit of a mess; this is just a drama-llama I don't need.

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

I am left assuming that "FML" stands for "Feed my llama".

It should! As I understand the kids today, it means "fuck my life". Which is how one announces that something has not gone to plan.

not your mom's socks.

I'm sorry for your loss, Jesse.
