Yes. Men like sports. Men watch the action movie, they eat of the beef, and enjoy to look at the bosoms. A thousand years of avenging our wrongs and that's all you've learned?

My office has a stove, refrigerator, microwave, toaster and many coffeemakers, since it conveniently moonlights as my house.

Ginger beat me to it. And while the amenities are fab, we unfortunately lose by virtue of NO FREE STUFF EVER and ridiculous self-employment taxes and no paid days off.

But then, I have my trusty sidekick with me always, so there is that.

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

The scent thing is something I may have to bring up at my current job. The people who set me off at my last job were people I felt almost comfortable asking if they could not eat slightly burnt popcorn at their desk/wear that particular perfume. It all went very well.

At this job the perfume wearer is not someone I know at all, and word is she's kinda weird.

But a mid afternoon dousing can have me gagging for the ER, so I need to be able to say something.

Oddly, I expected Sox to say "I prefer not to."

See? Here we are again, quoting the OLD Testament.

Can I give you something to read, neighbor? It's called It's a Wooferful World and will help you to see the light. Or the leash...or something.

Relatedly, we have some of the sweetest Witnesses in our neighborhood on the weekends lately. Lovely people. I feel bad when I run into them on some far flung walk with Bartleby that I already have that copy of Awake thank you, as you stopped by my house yesterday. I don't think they believe me...

we had that group in our old neighborhood too. the fourth time they came by, I told them that I was deaf. Serves me right that they had someone who knew basic ASL, and I had to play it out.
