I...don't quite know what you mean, ita, but it doesn't sound good.
Oh shit -- I just remembered I have a call with a headhunter tomorrow morning. At least it doesn't conflict with my pedicure, but I'd better go to bed so I'm up and at em by then.
Don't worry, we're sure to spot Faith first. She's like this cleavagy slut-bomb walking around 'Ooh, check me out, I'm wicked-cool, I'm five-by-five.'

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Kate, I have no personal experience, but feel like the answer is Madhur Jaffrey?
I agree. Well, maybe. Her cookbooks aren't always the best for easy stuff. I've got some of hers, and Lord Krishna's Cuisine, which is comprehensive but a bit overwhelming, and The Indian Vegan Kitchen, which seems to take some shortcuts but makes good food pretty easily and quickly.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
For some reason, the company goes right to emergency number after two tries at me--to tell me to come in and pick up a pulse ox machine for a sleep test. EMERGENCY. This is not one, and whoever's being nice enough to me to be my emergency crap shouldn't have to field those calls (they called me at 4 Friday, 1 today, Colin at 4 today) any time, but LEAST OF ALL THEIR BIRTHDAYS.
When I told my old manager I hadn't realised she was the only non-Indian on the team now old boss turned to me and said "West Indian. Pfft. Close enough." "Except in cricket," I reminded him. "Mortal enemies," he said nodding. Former manager's expression was all "post-colonial bonding AGAIN?"

The entry level Madhur Jaffrey is Quick and Easy Indian Cooking. Not exclusively veg. We cook from it all the time and have liked every single thing we've made.
I really like the Blurred Lines song. Luckily I pretty much never listen to song lyrics. I mean, the only line I could have told you was in the song is "good girl." My main takeaway from the video is wondering why they made Robin Thicke's eyes blue, when they are brown IRL. (Okay, I know why they did it, because it makes him hotter, so maybe my question is how?)

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I really like the Blurred Lines song.
Me too. There are exactly two songs on the charts this year that I've actually enjoyed, and that's one of them. (The other one is Bom Bom, by Sam And The Womp.)

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I now expect Chris Evans to live in my building and be amused at me in the stairwell or hallway. If two movies say it, it's true, right?
I expect to be fixed up with his little brother eventually should this occur.
