this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

But, full disclosure, I do love me some coconut oil. Yum.

I'm going to be giggling at how editing is more detail-oriented than medicine for a while. That's terrific.

Second cake sitting out in the second kitchen. *It is a Monday of many cakes. Turns out I do not care for Tuxedo Cake (although I did finish the piece I took, because waste is bad, mkay), maybe this Coconut Cake (made with life-affirming coconut oil? Unclear) will be more to my taste.

Very cool costume idea, tommyrot! Every girl's crazy 'bout a sharp-dressed dragon.

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

Anne's gonna go as a hippy chick. Our story is that when walking the world of men, dragons often employ hippy chicks as familiars. Because if I'm wearing the claws, Anne would have to buy drinks for 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

OMFG, we still haven't paid for the vehicle that the client is bitching about! I sent over the paperwork and authorization on 9/18, and their PO was issued 9/25. I can't even. THIS is why the client doesn't have the registration paperwork--because the damned car isn't technically ours yet.

I mean, eating healthy food is a good thing, and if someone feels better eating paleo/gluten-free/vegan/whatever, that's a good thing. But damn, son, if you get pneumonia or cancer of the everything, coconut oil is NOT going to fix it.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Welcome to my world of parents with special needs kids. I have a coworker whose kid was hospitalized for not gaining any weight due to gastroparesis and they wanted to go with solving it by different foods and not meds. Um? gastroparesis means the food isn't working!

Oh man, I don't think I told you guys about the horrible thing I did last week. Somebody brought over BK, including the new whopper with the black bun. Which was gross, so I let the dog eat it.

I don't know if you've heard what's happening with those black buns. But it works on dogs too. SCIENCE! (Or, bad dog parenting.) But not in any way natural.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I don't know if you've heard what's happening with those black buns.

I had not heard! But I just googled it, and... now I want to go get one.

There are greens found in nature in that substance. That is not this. Shocking, tempera-paint-level-of-saturation emerald green.

No other side effects of note should you choose to experiment.
