The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

The butter chicken isn't as good as the masalas, I thought, though still pretty okay for a cheap frozen lunch.

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

meat muffins

I loves meat and all, but I will never eat anything called "meat muffins."

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Yeah the secret of getting a taco bell thing that fufills the craving - include a plain beef taco in your order, the one they make with ultra-cheap ground beef. Not the wrap, or ultra-crunch or bostado or tacarito or whatever neologistic special they are promoting. Include anything else you want (including more beef tacos.) But get at least one beef taco because it is horribly unhealthy but in flavor is pretty much pure essence of taco bell. If what you are craving is not essence of taco bell than go someplace decent.

TB understands the Taco Bell. As does Drew.

Shrift and aurelia, I'm booked tonight and tomorrow night. But am hoping to get together with Abi next Friday if either of you are around.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Meat muffins sounds vaguely porny.

I like this quote and so I share it. It has both science and a kind of early 20th century diction and wit that I enjoy.

The law that entropy always increases, holds, I think, the supreme position among the laws of Nature. If someone points out to you that your pet theory of the universe is in disagreement with Maxwell's equations — then so much the worse for Maxwell's equations. If it is found to be contradicted by observation — well, these experimentalists do bungle things sometimes. But if your theory is found to be against the second law of thermodynamics I can give you no hope; there is nothing for it but to collapse in deepest humiliation. — Sir Arthur Stanley Eddington, The Nature of the Physical World (1927)

Don't go up against the Second Law of Thermodynamics, bitches!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Meat muffins sounds vaguely porny.

It's a meat party in your mouth!

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

I would totally marry Mister Rogers. Smart, educated, doted on kids, a thoroughly, resolutely decent person, and in his youth had just a bit of a young Jimmy Stewart vibe going.

Then I suppose I'd have to C Captain Kangaroo because he and I are birthday twins and he's always felt like too much of a wacky storytelling uncle to contemplate F'ing without squicking myself to death.

And I don't really remember much of anyone but the Muppets from Sesame Street, so I guess I could maybe F Gordon, but I'd really rather not F anyone from Sesame Street if I don't actually have to. An F, C, M challenge doesn't constitute an actual legal obligation, does it?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I could do Singha (or someplace else) tonight or tomorrow! I'm heading to Michigan on Friday directly after work.

Singha tonight would be great!

Shrift and aurelia, I'm booked tonight and tomorrow night. But am hoping to get together with Abi next Friday if either of you are around.

I might be available. Hard to say at the moment.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

If someone made single serving meat loaf and called it a meat muffin I would probably eat it. I like meat loaf, but it's not something to make when you're cooking just for yourself.

I had a Jimmy John's BLT and a banana berry smoothie for lunch.

Because books.

Between the FCM and the meat muffins, this thread has a lot of glorious wrong in it this morning.
