I happen to be very biteable, pal. I'm moist and delicious.

It's weird--we've been "here" so long now that my brain overlays everything that came before with this. So it seems puzzling to me that the 9/11 stuff could possibly have NOT been on b.org, and was at WX instead. Then again, my brain does the same thing with stuff like texting--I know I pretty much never texted until I got a smartphone, and yet when I think of contacting some people back in the day my brain goes "I must have texted them to ask if I should pick up food", even though I know I probably actually called.

You're good at not hiding from giant insects?

Today I'm good at eating chocolate peanut butter pie.

Because books.

To be fair, the community is actually several years older than the board itself.

True. But since I was never at WX, in my head this place has always been home.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I think you mean strategically utilizing available resources.

You're good at not hiding from giant insects?

Or prioritizing organizational objectives.

See, Jesse knows how to do it!

Huh. Actually, yeah, I am pretty good at that.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

In unrelated news, a girl at the publisher I'm working with freelance just sent me something, and in her email said, "Here you go, Hun!"

That word does not mean what you think it does, dear.

M does that. I respond with, "Thank you, Cossack!" (It's funny 'cuz it's true....)

Wow, WX. I miss the stors.

See! I can throw more out, if want stuff to pick from.

Excellent.

Dana, from a couple feet away you could spray the roach with Windex. That always works.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I had kind of reconciled myself to the idea of putting tupperware over it until it started flailing. Now, I'm happily staying upstairs until my husband can come deal with it, because that's what I pay him for.
