Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Randomly funny -- I was saying to my coworker that I had made this soup for my grandmother, because she's not eating enough, and she said she does the same thing for her mother. Except she goes to Whole Foods, buys a prepared dinner, puts it in a tupperware, and tells her mother it's leftovers! That cracked me up.

Heh. Girl knows how to score easy points!

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

Sue, best of luck. I don't even know.

I gave in and bought pencils at lunch.

First pencil broke halfway through my first meeting.

Tights got a run.

It's like being nibbled by geese.

And then all sorts of things got upgraded to "defects" for the Steering Committee Meeting that aren't really defects, but boy does it make our stats look less good. Thanks, people.

Lemme go home. Seriously.

Does your office not have pencils, ita? I love my Dixon Ticonderogas like cake.

Sue, that's rough to see happening. I hope you can get some advice.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Never played the alphabet game on family trips.(And boy were there plenty of family trips growing up) One game I do remember was looking for license plates from as many states as possible.

hip deep in pie

I was having quesadillas for supper and planning to go see a screening of The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover. The first bite of my quesadilla tasty mouldy (everything looked fine) and the movie seems too intense for my mood. So it's a Blizzard for supper and the new Sept issue of Vogue for entertainment.

I may regret not going to the screening, but I have seen it in theatres at least twice. I am curious to see how well it has aged.

Nobody's sure where the supply cabinet has gone.

And it was a mechanical pencil! Thankfully I got a two pack, so I was set for the second meeting, but still. It's just not my week.

Mr Man From A Cube Over? Don't come over and tell me about concerts I may want to go to. Because? You don't know diddly about my musical tastes unless you've been eavesdropping, and if so, you've been doing so not very well.

Also? The "group from Africa, or maybe London" you recommended? Is a chick from the Bay Area.

Stop talking to me.

That's ... a little odd.

I'm watching House Hunters International, in which people are picking up and moving to Belize. Shockingly, it's not improving my mood.
