I just got back from lunch. On the credit card slip right below the signature line there was another line for me to enter my phone number. I left it blank.
Has anyone seen this? What do they want my number for?
Hey! What do you two think you're doing? Fightin' at a time like this. You'll use up all the air!

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
To call you for a date. See above re: rom-com tropes!
And if only they were true, it would have worked out with the boy Jesse who drew the signs at my local Trader Joe's.

I have a male friend who got into a motorcycle accident in a small town in Arkansas a couple of summers ago, and one of the nurses at the ER offered to get a friend of her to drive him to the nearest motel (he was not seriously injured, but the bike was totaled.) I was like, "I think this is the beginning of a romance novel!" But, it wasn't.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
For all you know, flea, it was the start of one of those suburban action romance flicks, where your neighbours are undercover and you just aren't at the reveal yet.
Did my round of pinging this morning. I need more recruiters. That'll be my bonus task for today--expand recruiter pool.
But very bad headache. Tremors from neck to hand. And foggy headed. I think I may need to lie down a little. But that grilled strawberry brie sandwich on cinnammon raisin low glycemic bread was very tasty.

I was going to post something about wishing I were in a movie sometimes, but you know the odds are better that it would be an action/disaster/some other kind of movie that means my car will get crashed! (NB: I do not have a car.)

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Congrats, Aimee!
I'm in the airport. Unfortunately, the free wi-fi is nowhere to be seen.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Woot, Aimee!
Bon voyage, Sheryl! You guys have a great time.

Man, I wish I had a resource to hog bandwidth with.
Gawker network is rolling their software back two major iterations. Back to the codified social contract version, except we've lost all the formal social credit we had two upgrades ago. I could post across their gaming, their cars, all their sites--that's unlikely to happen again.

Oh, bah, changing the bank account to my name only screwed up a bunch of auto payments. So now I have to set up all those again.
