Let him do his thing, and then you get him out. No messing with him for laughs.

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

Or when dangerous activities like hedgehog-snorting become trendy amongst juvenile whales....

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

A couple of blocks from work a woman who's about his age caught up with us and proceeded to totally ignore me and talk to cute co-worker. It was like I wasn't even there. I was in a good mood, so I just found it kind of funny, but it was definitely strange.

There's a guy in my office who's friends with my very cute co-worker (and real estate agent!) K. He's funny and super nice when he comes over.

And then when I pass him when I'm by myself, and not with K, he'll look right at me and there's not even a glimmer of recognition. It doesn't bother me, because I could honestly give a shit about this guy. But it's interesting in the "you are not nearly the "nice guy" you think you are" way.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

mac is doing animal wars and wants to know what can beat a whale?

I hope this is my doing.

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

mac - FOR REAL!?!?!

I love Mac to bits.

Non-answer? Well, last season the main Eureka poster had someone else's body instead of Colin's. Maybe they're redressing the balance.

My krav cohort gets a lot of attention from the ladies. So much so that they invite themselves out with us a lot. These are nice women, but he totally doesn't believe me that they'd never care to go to dinner with me alone. At least, not at first.

Just went sex toy shopping for an off-to-college gift for the youngest krav instructor. I think she needs a book to go with the feather boa duckie vibrator. Perhaps that one about sex tips from gay guys.

She'll be receiving from other people, IIRC, a good set of restraints and many condoms. She's so lucky to be growing up around us.

For some reason this weekend I decided to make proper vanilla ice cream (custard cooled overnight and all) and bread pudding. As well as cooking the test recipe sent to me by Cook's Illustrated. Such unpractical thinking.

But the Roomba talk (I think mine's named Bert) reminds me I need to pick up after myself in the living room and set that puppy chugging. Maybe I'll even pick up in the bedroom so it can work while I'm at krav tomorrow.

The chicken? Or did you get a different recipe?

Mac just cracks my shit up every time we get a report. Such an amazing kid.

The chicken. Looks simple enough, plus should gibe with my shy taste buds.

Yeah, it looked good, and easy. I'm crazy busy now, so not eating at home enough to justify it. But I sent it to my dad to try out.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And then when I pass him when I'm by myself, and not with K, he'll look right at me and there's not even a glimmer of recognition.

Oh yeah. I knew a particularly egregious example of That Guy in and after college. We had friends in common in school, so met several times then. He never remembered me. Then after, he was dating my best friend's roommate, and still no. We had breakfast together more than once, and I was brand new to him every time. @@

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

and a Swarovski crystal embedded in the beak.
Ouch?

But I love the idea that the littlest krav instructor is getting such a useful going away gift.

She's so lucky to be growing up around us.
She really is.
