Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

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

Have you told them that you're trying, but you sometimes are so worried that you don't have as much patience as usual? Kid's are pretty forgiving and resilient.

I have, Plei. I just... worry.

Silly lady. If you don't want to hear the answer, don't ask the question.

Oh, dude, you are lucky if you only have five interviews.

I am that irritating person answering ALL of the emails! For I shall not be back in the office for two weeks.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

So speaking of game shows, Let's Make a Deal is the most sadistic thing ever, right?

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

isn't anyone needing a new pet? I feel like looking for pets for people today. (I am not allowed another pet, McPhee says she will quit if I get another> PLus my 2 old man cats are both getting to be more work with more vomitting and messier/less accurate bathroom breaks, plus the diabetes).

To get things started, I will continue my quest for Tom Scola to get a Dog.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I might die from happiness if Scola had a dog named Anna Wintour.

It recently occurred to me that my new landlord (aka mom) might not let me have a pet ever. Bummer.

I saw a little red bug crawling up my book page, so I smished it by closing the book. Now I'm paranoid that it was a bedbug, and I should have captured it to make a better identification.

Please let it just be a small beetle.

Bedbugs are not red and would not be out in the day unless you just brought it into the house, or you had a really really bad infestation.

Because books.

The little red bugs are clovermites, and they come in in the spring and fall. They love the sunlight and don't bite.
