smonster, congrats on a successful job hunt.

Steph, how does Tim respond? How do you want him to respond? "Did you leave a message? No? Why not?" "Oh, we never answer the landline." "Did you call her cellphone?" "Why are you calling me ?"

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

That's wonderful, smonster! I'm so happy for you!

I'm a fucking amazing catch!--Fiona Gallagher, Shameless(US)

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

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

And the downside to the ludicrous decision to call applesauce an ultra-processed food is that, if I'm comparing apple(sauce) to oranges, and fucking applesauce is a Big Bad Ultraprocessed Food, then fuck it; I'm going to get a sausage and egg McMuffin instead, because it's ultra-processed, too, and if they're both evil, then I'm getting the one that is the best breakfast sandwich ever (voted on by: me), and not just apple ground into a paste.
A friend of my mom's High School priest told the kids that French Kissing is a Cardinal Sin! so, having been necking for years, they all went ahead and fucked.

My rescue dog was in a horde and is pretty much anorexic and agoraphobic. He's improved more than I ever dreamt, but also continues to find novel ways to be weird. Being 7.5 pounds (up from 6!) and toothless, however, he's pretty easy to manage.

Wonderful job news, smonster!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Congratulations, Smonster! That’s awesome!

Something weird is happening in the universe. A guy has flirted with me in public for the second time this month. This is roughly the equivalent of the number of men who have flirted with me in my entire life up until this point.

In completely frivolous news, the sitcom Ghosts is my new happy place. That show just tickles me.
