I like books. I just don't want to take on too much. Do they have an introduction to the modern blurb?

Laser in the eye like it ain't no thang is the most metal thing ever.

Aw, I've never gotten to have a most metal thing ever. I feel nearly as badass as Christopher Lee.

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

That's a high bar!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I have the same problem with green tree, -t, plus they fucked up a few things over the years with the home insurance and such. Nothing huge, but annoying and always I am sure resulting in a little bit more money in their coffers than they've accounted for. We are getting a refi and getting away from them.

Heard from down the hallway: "You're not the Doctor! Don't try that wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey stuff on me!"

Yeah, I seem to recall insurance difficulties, but nothing recent. I refied through Quicken Loans and green tree took my loan again afterwards! Annoyed me no end. I am way more irate about not being able to choose who holds my mortgage than I am ever gonna be about choosing or not choosing a doctor.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, Burrell. I wish you didn't feel like that. Fat lot of good that does you, though!

I'm gonna have a talk with my boss today about moving some work around.

Sounds like the right call.

Thanks Jesse. I just need to get over myself. I always keep a more even emotional keel when I remember that it's usually not about me.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Oh, Burrell, be kind to yourself. Every time I see the kids, I'm always struck by how lovely and happy they seem to be, and how much they enjoy engaging with people on topics they're passionate about. The love in your household is evident. I'd say you're doing OK.

So few things are, really. And life is all choices!
