Me too.
They do choose the right house, though, imo.
Sunnydale's got too many demons and not enough retail outlets.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
That's ... a little odd.
I can't work out why no one cares, but I don't want to out myself as an office supply fetishist, so I'm just going to supply myself.
Except? Really? I have a lot of pencils. At home.

But are they WRONG and MECHANICAL?

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
Congrats on the fuse fixing, Kat! It's a nice feeling of accomplishment to get stuff like that done. Not to mention a nice feeling of "I'm no longer burning up like I was vacationing in Gehenna" feeling.

ita, if you want more of what I sent you, just say the word. It would be good to know that my new hobby is being put to good use.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Sounds like a book I should get a hold of.
You should totes check it out, Nora. He also wrote a fascinating book on SF's Barbary Coast. He got the wild histories down for all the cool cities. I think he did one on Chicago too.
I took Matilda and Emmett out to GG Park this afternoon. We found the bison paddock where Matilda chirped "Hello Buffalo!" through the fence to them while Emmett corrected her each time that they were bison.
Then Stow lake where we rented a paddle boat and went around the lake twice while munching on popcorn and spotting turtles and feeding the ducks. Then to the playground where we got churros and rode the carousel and played on the equipment until Matilda started to get cranky and I knew I should get her back in the car to nap. Which she did.
And now she's asleep in the bed and Emmett and I are about to eat Tater Tots.
Emmett's back at school on Wednesday so this was one of our last summer days on the loose.

Buffalo are not bison?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Bison doesn't get sing songy when you say, "hello, bison." I'm with Matilda on this one. "Hello, buffalo" is better.
I used to hello to the ocean when I was little. Sounded, according to mom, something like "'lo ocean."

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I think that the American ones are bison, and the African and Asian ones are buffalo, but I can't remember what makes the difference. The ones that we get the milk from for buffalo mozzarella are buffalo, not bison, I think.
