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

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh no! Jesse got us with her legal mumbo-jumbo!
Hee.
In other news, someone just asked me if my management degree meant I was an office manager now. Yeah, no.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Bwah! "No offense" just means that you know you're offending us! We are offended! Nothing is better than sitting at home with us.
However, I will grudgingly admit that it's an acceptable use of time to live, you know, your lives. Harumph. Anyway, yay Tom fun!
Also, no, I do not know the Henderson of which you speak, however, at a quick first glance I find the website very interesting and will investigate further.

Argh. We need to buy a new couch, and while we have the money, I am a cheap bastard. I mean, I know that a crappy couch won't last long and is therefore not worth the money, but I question how long-lived a couch will be with 2 cats who cough up hairballs and generally shed their body weight in hair daily, and 2 dogs who shed TWICE their body weight in hair daily, and lick and rub their wet noses and sometimes drooly mouths all over the cushions.
You know?
I totally (totes!) believe in buying quality, because it will last, but I am wary of spending a lot on a couch that's going to be en-pet-ified.
I know there are slipcovers for this very reason, but I'm not overly fond of slipcovers. (Yeah, I know, I'm shooting down a very good way to deal with the en-pet-ification.)
Grah. I'm just grumbling pre-emptively. In the end, I know the couch we get will be fine. Like I said, I'm just a cheap bastard.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Ikea
inexpensive
made to have covers that change.
I know people say they don't last -- but I have adults, no children, and pets. I figure 500.00 for a couch should last me 5+ years
or there are futon frames. that are very sturdy and only part of the couch has to be replaced.
or just grumble

I'm not overly thrilled with Ikea's couches.
I know people say they don't last -- but I have adults, no children, and pets. I figure 500.00 for a couch should last me 5+ years
See, I can live with this. I think I paid 300-400 for my current couch, which I bought in 2000. Close to 10 years is a good run, I say.
