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

Once you're clear of S4 there are no more plot overlaps with their idea and what's onscreen, for the record.

In true horror, I just read a Cracked article written by an American sex slave, and I don't understand how we can be the same species as her family...utterly boggling and a fair bit disturbing.

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

Think of your hobbies!

Which I am happy to talk about at great length if they come up in conversation, but cannot seem to think of at all if someone asks if I have any. I should probably keep a list in Evernote.

Because books.

-t, just think "bunnies."

I thought that concept didn't exist with your job? Or is that a narrower audience than this?

You have a point. Also I remembered that I already used the Playboy one for an icebreaker with a different set of people, but at least we were drinking at the time.

I draw the line at sharing Too Much Candy with my coworkers.

Maybe the other one could be about interviewing at Playboy. Or is that too inappropriate?

I think that's awesome!

I made it to Warsaw last night, limping like crazy (I have at least six blisters, apparently from wearing he same pair of shoes for two weeks while walking over 10 miles per day?) Got some food and then passed out...slept for 12 hours. Bed was so comfy, which was NOT the case of the place I stayed in Krakow. So, no sightseeing here, but I'm up and packed and showered and need to get some breakfast. Cab comes at 11AM and then I fly to Dubai!

Wow, meara! This trip keeps on sounding amazing!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

meara, I'm pretty sure I blame you for the fact that I was searching last-minute travel deals over the weekend. Still not going anywhere.

Although it was surprisingly disorienting to get ready in my mother's place this morning! I kept having to remind myself that my commute is still the same.

shrift, I would have imagined that in a group of writers in Chicago, many would have interviewed at Playboy, no?

You might need an extra minute because you're upstairs?

My blisters from Friday have already been reabsorbed (or whatever happens to blisters that don't pop (not tea sorbet, autocorrect, although that does sound delicious)). I think I will not try running until tomorrow, but with good thick socks I'll go for a couple of walks, see how that goes.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I am up early enough, and the Abrupt Autumn has made it cool enough that I should go run. It's been a while, so this is not gonna be fun.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I was going to go for a nice, long walk, but I've been pinned down by a cat. Oh well. The sidewalk will still be there in an hour.
