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

Yeah, Sophia--that's about as far as I got reading. Once I reached Anya's fruit punch speech it was a haze of tears.

Dammit! I thought of my perfect degree of fannish coffee cup for work on the way home, but curse DC/Warner Bros. I want this in travel mug. Brushed metal, logo. Can't find anything that simple and close. This just doesn't cut it. Damn them.

We got about three niceo months and that was it.

Jamaican weather is pretty consistent. Apart from whether it's raining or not, it's about 85° and sunny all the time. Rains for not long, and dries up after itself.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I don't like the heat. Or the sun. I just get so hot!

Do people still (or did they ever except in small towns) listen to the police scanner? I was just remembering how most people in my town, in the eighties, always had the scanner on, and they knew when there was a fire, or an ambulance called (and where it was called) or the fire department called-- it was actually more instantaneous than the internet!

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

Ohh, that would be perfect.

(The cup. But the weather sounds pretty okay too.)

I just spent 4.5 hours drinking wine with people I shoveled with. I love this neighborhood. I am now told I am in their wine night club.

They're both off tomorrow (one is a teacher type, other a professional viola-ist) but I have liberal leave, so while they make a Giant dash, I shall go into work for at least part of the day. I just need to leave the house for a bit.

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

You know, my current kitty maybe isn't as much of a mouser as Senor was. If there was a mouse, Senor would be obsessed over it, even if it went away. If he thought a mouse was hiding behind the fridge, he'd wait. For hours if needed. Whereas Squeeky is all, "OK, the mouse is gone now. Time for you to pet me while I sit on your lap."

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

More importantly, AGAIN, why the fucking fuck do they start comic book rings at a SIZE FUCKING 8???

(My *thumb* might be an 8 if I'm lucky. And swollen. NOT THAT MY GREEN LANTERNLESS FINGERS ARE BITTER.)

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

When I was a kid, it took about a minute for all the vacuum tubes on our TV to heat up before it'd work.

Remember how mesmerizing the dot was when you turned it off?

More importantly, AGAIN, why the fucking fuck do they start comic book rings at a SIZE FUCKING 8???

Silly, Ple, women don't read comics or buy geeky stuff, hence they start with tiny little nerd boy sizes.

You'd think teenage boys would have smaller fingers than that, though.
