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.

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

Okay, not quite. I wonder if the limitation is in getting muscles and tendons to attach properly.

but I just shake my head--I'm too selfish and set in my ways, and I know I wouldn't have the patience to deal with a child by myself.

yes, this. I'm a great aunt/godmother though!

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

Yeah, I'm responsible enough to know I'm not currently responsible enough to be anyone's mother. That's as far as that goes, especially solo.

Got into work only 15 minutes late. To a million emails, from yesterday.

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

I know this is going to change any second now, but the most pressing thing I have to do at this point is my time sheets, and they aren't due until the end of the day tomorrow.

Weird.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

That...is fucking insane. How'd they do that?! Is there even such a thing as a bone transplant? You can't just go and replace a bone like that! Right? Until now.

Comic books are good for children's learning:

Professor Carol Tilley, from the department of library and information science, said that comics are just as sophisticated as other forms of reading, and children benefit from reading them at least as much as they do from reading other kinds of books.

She said there was evidence that they increased their vocabulary and instilled a love of reading.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just had some cheese and crackers for lunch, and am heating up mushroom turnovers. Also, Mad Men.
