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

I did keep a pillbox of ground Blue Mountain in my bag for emergencies. Doesn't really support extended use, but it's good to block the fumes while I beat a retreat.

Steph, that woman is...damn. Beeyotch.

Heath Ledger has died: [link]

The actor Heath Ledger was found dead this afternoon in an apartment building at 421 Broome Street in SoHo, according to the New York City police. Mr. Ledger was 28.

At 3:31 p.m., a masseuse arrived at Apartment 5A in the building for an appointment with Mr. Ledger, the police said. The masseuse was let in to the home by a housekeeper, who then knocked on the door of Mr. Ledger’s bedroom. When no one answered, the housekeeper and the masseuse opened the bedroom and found Mr. Ledger unconscious. They shook him, but he did not respond. They immediately called the authorities. The police said they did not suspect foul play and said they found pills near body.

Christ, I'm older than Heath Ledger?

ETA: Not to make it all about me, it's just -- Brad Renfro was only 25 and Heath was 28, and it's freaking me out a little.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I have heard of "scent-free workplaces" but I don't know how they work. I've also heard that Santa Cruz has an ordinance that prohibits discriminating against someone based on smell, but I don't know how that works either.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm really shocked and sad about Heath Ledger. As are all of my coworkers. Poor Matilda.

Poor Matilda.

I did a double-take on that one.
