You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Currency exchange or money exchange, though I would also know what was meant by cambio.

Please, I can't even believe we translate every frigging dialogue at the bottom of the page, but, whatever. I'm just the sous-editor on this one.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

sous-editor

Heh. Reminds me that today, I got a chef salad from the deli downstairs for lunch. They used to have a whole (sliced) hard-boiled egg in it; today's salad had only half an egg. I commented to chatty!co-worker that the economy was really putting the hurt on chef salads.

"Maybe it's a sous-chef salad," he said.

"Well played, [last name]," I said.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sort of both, Jesse, but for a bridal shower, perfect, I think.

Yeah, it's for a bachelorette, and I'm already ordering from there, so what the hell. Shipping is the same either way.

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

Chick came back from wedding leave this week, and the first thing out of my mouth was "Can I see the new ring?" Who am I? Why do I care? I don't even like wedding rings. And I'm pretty sure my "Shiny!" sounded inane. Unless she's a closet Firefly fan. An understanding Firefly fan.

So while I think those are stupid, Jesse, I totally can't judge. I have lost myself.

I think they are stupid, but the right kind of stupid for $2 per (including shipping).

Because books.

It's amazing what you buy when you need to fill a favor bag, that's for sure.

I don't even need to! I've just gone crazy.

Bureau de change seemed pretty universal in Europe for a currency exchange. These days, the actual answer is ATM.

The answer in my head (I now realise) is Cambio. And then ATM. Or just plain credit card.
