"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Yeah, I remember that one. We were talking about sheep-intestine condoms, hand-made in the 18th or 19th century, and how ridiculously baroquely they were bound to be decorated (considering how much effort it required to make them at all).

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I am a little shocked that Nutty used the word "lovin'", complete with apostrophe.

My method of parsing these quotes isn't working too well.

Dana, you've got to hear the lovin' in a Peter Wimsey accent, not a cowboy one.

Ahhh. Now it makes sense.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I was meant to go to work today. I did not. I feel terrible and terrible about it. I'm afraid to look at the e-mail I sent this morning, because I suspect it was in no way coherent.

Christ.

I can't believe I have to do this for two more days this week. And then next week? FIVE DAYS.

This shit is inhumane.

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

This shit is inhumane.

Is there someone we can write a letter to?

Okay, I gotta dive back into the morass of Excel and Access. Pray for me.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

That time article goes on to state:

But at an afternoon news conference, Police Chief Heather Fong said police had no information that anyone had put a leg over the railing, and she said no shoe was found in the animal's enclosure. She did not address whether the victims had teased the tiger.

I was just bumming out about that at lunch! How will I survive next week?!? (The week after that, though, I'm off Wed-Friday to go to NC to visit my new nephew. Who better get his little butt out here! He was due 12/29!)
