Always Anti-fascist!

Thanks, Brenda, apparently making bullet points is one of the cleaner things McNulty's good at.(Which, of course I stole the phrase for because I know a lot about things people do to make stuff look nice and/or promoting line-towing) Yow, Dana. Hec, when I'm stressed, I lose things too. But it does suck.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Oh no, Dana!

I am on DAY TWO of my new job and so far everybody is very welcoming and helpful and I am basically a nervous wreck who is trying my very best to cosplay a Normal Human Who Knows How To People.

Um, okay. I guess it is better than the dozen looking for a quick call emails I get a day.

I believe in your ability to fake being a Normal Human Who Knows How To People, Jess! *\o/*

I'm about to go pick up a po boy *and* a pork chop on mac&cheese special because I am determined to give in to all the cravings I can today, apparently.

That is a relief. I worried about one loony being on the jury. Administer that justice, people!

Talking to a friend who is a big Star Wars fan about reading romance, and I was like, "Oh! I read one I couldn't get into and then found out the author is a Reylo writer, so that explains it," and my friend was like ?????
