You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

I'm trying not to freak out about the job interview tomorrow. Because I kind do seriously need more money, and soon. As a cost-cutting measure, I am no longer allowed to buy breakfast from Au Bon Pain and have begun stealing coffee from upstairs.

Mm, contraband coffee.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I'm working from home today. I still have a headache.

However, I did get to spend quality time with Rigatoni in place of commuting. so it all worked out well.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I want TJ's Choco Croissants!!!

Ditto. And I think I'm going to TJ's later.

I just told my sister-in-law about them.

I think that she may be planning a trip to TJs too.

BTW, they have a miniature poodle pup who they are trying to entice to eat more by cooking his meals. That was a weird, convoluted sentence - but the upshot is: does anyone here cook for their dog(s) and if so: do you have any recipes to share?

Our dog wouldn't eat dog food for the first few years of her life, except the occasional biscuit, and then only when we made a game of it. We used to boil up chickens for her and give her the meat. She was a big fan of it when we put grapes in too.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

I once dogsat for a guy who made omelettes for the dogs every morning and grilled lamb for them to eat every night. So, that's what I had to do too.

I thank goodness that my cats are happily satisfied with their (expensive) dry kibble, and actually show extremely little interest in human food or the garbage, for that matter.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

As a fellow member of the contraband coffee brigade (seriously, I troll our conference rooms with my giant travel mug at 9:05 every morning) I'm vibing interview~ma to you in bushels, shrift.

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

We used to feed our dog our leftovers for the night in a big pot of cornmeal porridge. We thought dog-specific food was the neatest shiniest thing, but they wouldn't touch it and wanted their hot meal instead.
