And the bread pudding is in! Someone needs to come over and reward me for all my hard work. I'm thinking something along the lines of peeled grapes.
This is a time of celebration, so sit still and be quiet.

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

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.
I hate people like that. It happened to me with one of the members of Sloan, who dated several of my friends in a row, and each time I would be introduced, he never remembered me.

We have YouTube evidence that a Killer Whale bitch slaps and kills a Great White Shark with minimal effort.

I feel bad now for completely screwing up his sense of scale. I should get the Planet Earth DVDs or something for his next birthday.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Why are you in NY, Lee?
Stop over on the way to Maine.

Mac makes me laugh. Introduce the polar bear to his debate.
The introduction of the concept homosexual made me think. I don't really know when I became aware of it. I know I had strong suspicions about a highschool cohort (bi) but I grew up with a buncha hippies in a rather conservative area. So within the confines of our annual gathering, I knew there were same-sex couples, but I didn't really assign a name or type or anything remarkable or not (huh, that's kind of a blessing, isn't it? Lack of awareness that there was anything that might be seen as unusual?) to them. I don't think it was until college that I really understood it was a Thing, or..not a thing. A Thing to society. I'm sure part of it was my own awareness of being a sexual creature within society.
I moved my bed and vacuumed up years worth of Devi's hiding. Good lord. Five kittens. It took an hour or more to suck up from under a double bed. And 3/4 was under containers, so that means 5 kittens in 1/4 a double!

I envy you Roomba people. I couldn't have a Roomba unless they come out with the Sir Edmund Hilary model.

Oh and brenda? Congrats!
My parents have a roomba. It was purchased for novelty value, but has proved useful cleaning around litterboxes. And to crack me up when dad refers to it as "nursing" when it is recharging (its light pulses like a mac does.)
