No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Why grammar counts. To 888000.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

ita, I hope you're feeling better.

Every time I watch Iron Chef, Bobby Flay loses.

I read that as "Top Chef" and immediately thought, "Man, Flay is a sucker on TWO shows!"

Regarding CSI: could someone tell me what exactly the miniaturist serial killer is? I read some spoiler over at E! about Grissom, and now I'm all curious as to why this particular murder is making him crazy.

Very briefly, they found a guy dead at his kitchen table. On the table was a tiny little dollhouse replica of the room, right down to the dead guy and the pattern of the blood pool.

Hey, Kat! Long time no read.

Been swamped. I blame Chaucer and Dickens. Who thought Grad School was a good idea again?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Kat, I'm desperately hoping you were asleep for the entire time in between your last two posts. Grad school is only a good idea if you aren't working fulltime as well, silly!

Well, it's the one doctor prescribing it all.

That's good. But still. I will just mention that they thought my grandmother had lupus for a while, and started treating it, but the lupus-like symptoms turned out to be a reaction to some other medication she was taking.

I just don't want to take it.

Well, yeah.

I feel subhuman.

Aw, ita. So do I. And yet, I'm at work. Mostly because, hey, only my third week, despite the roommate urging me to stay home. To be honest, I could do my job from home, but I don't know how to, uh, broach that at this point in my employment.

Also, why is it only on days what I feel like crud that boys fumble money and bump into walls whenever I appear? Is it the cloud of malevolence following me everywhere, or just my awesome outfit? I may never know.
