Good luck with everything, Liese! Transition is hard.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Moving ~ma to Liese's family and surgery ~ma to Typo.
My boss is having me help out (should I say "mentor"? is that better business jargon? I could put that shit on my resume) a new freelance editor, and I just want to drink my coffee and get my work done, not talk on the phone with a stranger. I am flattered that she trusts my skills/experience enough to ask me to do this, but dang, I hate talking to strangers, on the phone or otherwise.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Eventful weekend! Congrats and ~mas, as needed.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!
Pumpkin spice burger sounds not dissimilar from tourtière, French-Canadian pork pie with cinnamon and clove, which is delicious!
Pork works a lot better with sweet-ish seasonings than beef, in my experience. Back in my college World Lit class several students worked together to serve a medieval meal as their final project, and the entree was bruet sarcens—beef with some kind of spiced sugary glaze. Keeping a smile on my face as I choked it down may have been the best acting I've ever done.

Well, I guess that means she thinks you're doing the job right.
edit: and yes, put that shit on a resume.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
What Connie said. Both of it.

Y'all can have the pumpkin everything. I like pumpkin pie with Thanksgiving dinner and that does me for pumpkin for the year. When did this madness begin, marketing pumpkin everything in the fall? I don't remember it before a few years ago.

I think it was only 3-5 years ago. I just legit love pumpkin-flavored stuff. For most of my life I never ate it, including pumpkin pie. And then I ate either pumpkin ice cream or pumpkin pie some time in my 30s and realized what I had been missing, and the pumpkin beast was unleashed in my belly.

My mom makes a pumpkin pie that's way better than anything you can get in a store, so that's been my preferred birthday "cake" since I was a kid.
