I now need to figure out how to get out of a meeting by yelling "Bat!" and disappearing.
Or yell "smoke bomb!" and run away. (Actual smoke bomb optional, as seen here: [link] )
Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Or I yell "Bat!" AND throw a smoke bomb!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Seems foolproof, honestly.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I feel like working some glitter in somehow might help, but it’s probably not necessary

I want to start using “glittering the smoke bomb” to mean “gilding the lily”

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
That sounds like a situation where you would really want to know what genre you are in
Right? Whole different vibe in the Bourne Universe. Or the Wes Anderson for that matter.

My mind immediately leapt to horror. So many possibilities.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
My Friday mtg (my only standing meeting) got cancelled. Tomorrow I will need to seriously get a lot done though because last day for a week. And I FLAKED on something today.

Keep trying to get things done but I keep getting more things coming at me. I am looking forward to three day weekend though!
I definitely think if anyone here was going to turn into a cloud of bats it would be Atropa.
