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

I get put off by the artwork. I'm shallow that way.

What don't you like? I'm a bit put off by the characterisation of her being completely irresistible to guys of a certain age--I know she's supposed to be a big deal Heterdyne spark, but eh. Other than that, I dig it.

Just joshing, Toddson.

I know I'm not world's worst sister because my sister would never dare accuse me of such. She knows better.

While I was gone, a new summer associate moved in to the office down the hall a bit. He doesn't seem to have much concept of work appropriate phone calls, judging on the call I just had to listen to, in which he was accusing someone I am guessing is his girlfriend of spying on him and talking about how everyone at the party he went to was a lesbian and how she clearly didn't trust him.

It sounds to me like he has worse personality problems than unawareness of work appropriate phone calls.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I was listening to the traffic report yesterday on the way home from the bookstore around 6:00 pm, and they were talking about a 20-mile backup trying to get from the southbound Dan Ryan onto I-80 that backed the road all the way onto the Kennedy/Ike/Ryan merge in the Loop. Yuck.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Maybe they just want to check (TSG mentioned some band did this with their rider) that you read that far in the rules?

That's the only thing I can come up with as an explanation, and it makes me really mad. I mean, your decision whether or not to give me $5million should be based on more than the fucking font.

If I could hear him clearly, it's a pretty good guess that the partner in the office next to his did as well.

Ay yai yai.

OMG I'm going to punch my boss.

Kathy, you're going to make me cry. Not that this is your fault, exactly, but it's making me think I should cancel this weekend, save a bunch of money, and go visit my sister on her actual birthday by taking the train...

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

What don't you like?

I hate the pseudo-anime drawing style. It's like he's trying to draw anime, but can't pull it off. Plus he has stupid-ass facial expressions.

shrift, is there a way for your sister to see how it makes sense, having you spend the time on being with her instead of being stuck in traffic, even if on a different schedule?

Now tagless for your comfort.

Oh and here is David Tennant introducing the Pussycat Dolls at Wembley.

::wibble::

I adore his real accent. And you don't get any better than a Scotsman saying "Pussy."

When I bought my copy of Vampire People the clerk at B&N was finishing up a frappachino and said, "I highly recommend the frappachinos." To which I replied, "I highly recommend this book!"

Nope. But I don't remember where we went to brunch!

I'm sure she'll understand if I don't go this weekend, but it's a yearly beach weekend for her and I know she looks forward to it. Of course, if I visit her on her birthday instead, I'll be able to see the entire family, and it'll be about $150 cheaper.

Man, decisions! Why are they so difficult to make?
