Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I kinda think "Just check it with your chainsaw" would look good in cross-stitch on a pillow. Maybe a neck pillow!

YES.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I hate the word seminal. Noam Chomsky is here giving a talk on his seminal work.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

On the brighter side there is now a precedent that may be the beginning of the end for HB2. Maybe. I hope.

For the bathroom provisions, at least. There's so much other poison in that bill.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

A guy who cannot stand my boss and is also drunk alla time just got re-assigned to our team. Oh, I foresee lively weekly meetings now. (He's a high-functioning addict with zero incentive to do anything about it. But he does a great job, somehow.)

Ovarial would sound nicer. Is Chomsky a good speaker?

Tony Stark is on your team?

My thoughts went to Peter O'Toole.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I was going to say my brother, but then we joke about shit like that in our family. Plus he's been sober for 8 weeks exactly as of today, so I guess he no longer qualifies for Tony Stark status.

Oh! Exciting news! There's one more great-nephew on the way right now! I just saw on FB that Tim's niece is at the hospital and is in labor with baby #2. So exciting!

And what's totally weird but I swear I'm not making up is that last night I dreamed about holding a baby and trying to teach it a basic vocabulary. (It was like a 3-month-old, so dream!me was pretty optimistic.)

Oh- I haven't gone (yet)- I just keep getting emails regarding Noam Chomsky's seminal-ness. Blech.

I also just added Kim Kelly to a contract. It made me laugh, but not as much as the woman whose email address is tpaine. We also have a Sharon Stone working here.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Luckily I got everything taken care of after work, so I am now the owner of a new Mazda 3!

Mazda 3s are ridiculously popular here in Australia. For the last three years it's been fighting with the Toyota Corolla for our best-selling car. (We have a Corolla.)
