Not sure how this made it through proofreading, peer review, and copyediting.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I had nothing to do this afternoon so I should have asked to leave early. Instead I read a half-dozen articles on "Too Many Cooks."

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

The article in Tom's link now says: Original version published on 12 July 2014 has been replaced due to inclusion of an author's note not intended for publication.

I had to click to be sure it wasn't one of my journals. Whew!

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

Hey, guys.

I caught up but didn't meara. Solace and support to those who need it and congratulations to those that deserve it. Which is everyone.

Ended up in the ER last night ($$$ I don't have) because of withdrawal symptoms. Apparently coming off narcotics gives you a hyperadrenal reaction, and I thought I couldn't breathe and my heart was going to leap out of my chest t /Supernatural

I swear, everything hurts. But I just got submitted for a job that's in my wheelhouse, so good. In Torrance, so bad.

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

Good luck with the job prospect! Sadly, from what I have been told "everything hurts" is par for the course for narcotics withdrawal. For a while.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Better safe than sorry, ita! You've got enough medical issues going on that chest pains and shortness of breath could be for reals (not that they weren't, just that they had an identifiable and transitory cause this time).

Evidently once I get my Uber phone, I'm OK to turn it on and start taking passengers. It really does seem kind of sketchy to me, but hell, I can use the flexibility to earn some money.

Hope that works out, Theo.

Thanks for the salad validation, y'all. I happen to have all those ingredients but I just could not imagine the flavor combination. Nice to be able to outsource that sort of thing.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Ah-ha!!!! I've been reconciling a new contract with the pricing workbooks and have been off $1k for the last 3 hours. I've cross checked and recalced and recross checked. And I just found it in a place I SWORE I reviewed multiple times.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

There are many times I'm glad I don't have to deal with the public at work.(Along the same lines, I try to stay out of the malls around the holidays. Amazon wish lists are a godsend.)
