Also, it kinda makes me wanna start a B.org recycling loan thingy. I wonder if we could manage that?
That's a good idea.
You're talking to Serenity. And, Early... Serenity is very unhappy.

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

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
In this context I'd guess unnecessary tests and/or medications.
That's it, prescribing treatments he knows are unnecessary in order to get paid.

Just got done with my phone screen, and now I cross my fingers that the hiring manager wants to talk to me/set up an interview. The company honestly sounds pretty awesome, and far less batshit than my last employer.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
So I am at a restaurant and the staff tells me that they have new salt and pepper shakers on each table. They are the kind where the salt is on top of the pepper and the pepper grinds. These are clear. Apparently customers really like these because they have been TAKING THEM HOME. What the fuck?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have to admit stealing a salt shaker while at university. I didn't want an entire thing of salt. And it lasted me for five or six years--it seemed weird to pack and move it to the US.
I found a summary of Teefury-like sites: [link] I had no idea there were so many. But there's a great run of Breaking Bad shirts in there right now. I might need to get part of my sister's Christmas present...

I stole a plastic bread basket from an Olive Garden once. I stole it because my son was throwing up and I was worried he would barf on the car ride between the restaurant and my SIL's house, where we could get him set up for sickness. But I have the basket, and I feel guilty about it, and occasionally ponder what they would think if I walked into an Olive Garden around here and tried to return it. (He did not barf in the car!)

I stole a red ramekin of guacamole from an Applebee's once. I just put it in the take-home box; I don't know what came over me. It was the guac!

Gary and I divided up writing the thank-you notes for our wedding gifts. We did do them in batches, fwiw.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Oh god, we took ages to write our thank-you notes for wedding gifts. Months, at least. I *think* we had them all done by the time our first anniversary rolled around, but I couldn't swear to it.
