Played with Kaylee. Sun came out, and I walked on my feet and heard with my ears. I ate the bits, the bits stayed down, and I work. I function like I'm a girl. I hate it because I know it'll go away. The sun goes dark and chaos has come again. Bits. Fluids. What am I?!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Husband's training course ended at 6. He is located in a building about two minutes' walk from the hotel. It is now 6:27. A train leaves Atlanta traveling due north at 60 mph. How long will it take before Dana gets dinner?

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

I keep seeing those Lumosity brain training ads. Anyone try it?

I did. I feel like it helped when my ability to focus and whatnot was particularly bad, if only by giving me something I could measure and see improvement in over time. I don't know that I would recommend it for extra-sharpening if you are not feeling unusually blunt, though. I haven't felt any desire to keep it up.

So far no calls to serve any super-villains. That I remember.

Failed to give blood today due to low iron. Rats.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My parents got some of that at Christmas. I was surprisingly into it!

Dana, you have neglected to account for the schmoozing.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

And I have to say, this job posting sounds a little bit like hell.

Help, we need experienced script writers ASAP!

Our client, a large oil and gas company, needs help writing a script.

The script needs to be 15-20 minutes long, and will involve actors and incorporate a game.

The ideal candidate does not need to have experience writing for Oil and Gas - but is an entertaining and witty writer.

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

I think I am all used up. I feel empty. Plus I am starting to make mistakes right and left. Not a good way to start the semester.

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

Okay, seriously. Now you are kidding, right? I was with it as long as I could imagine cheesecake, even overly sweet, but they had to bring the salt up again.
