Of COURSE it was iced tea that tempted her.

I know, right. Green Tea Lemonade was one of Noah's first phrases. It took FOREVER for us to figure out because it came out like "stinky gamete."

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

Oh, damn, Jilli, that outfit sounds nineteen kinds of awesome. And now I'm craving a bustle skirt even more than usual.

Re Boss #3, not only is his weaselly email as close to a win as we're likely to get, it may well be as close to a win as anyone's gotten in the last decade and a half. Clearing out the file cabinet drawers that nobody had touched since the early nineties, I came across 12-15 years' worth of angry notes, emails and formal letters from my various predecessors yelling at Boss #3 for fucking up one schedule after another and begging him, Please, I can't read your mind and I can't chase you down and get an answer in person every time there's a question about a random half hour. You're making me look stupid to all my supervisors, hurting your colleagues and hurting the patients. Please take some responsibility. PLEASE. And none of it's ever done a damn bit of good.

This tiny crumb of abashment? Probably the most anyone's choked out of him since Chelsea Clinton graduated from middle school.

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

Noah also prefers iced tea and calls soda gross.

He's right.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Oh Matt. Caltrops?

And yay! on greens-eating Noah and straw-sipping Grace!

I remember Noah stealing your tea.

He still does. And now Grace does too.

You are doomed. Better mainline your tea at work!

'OH MY GOD Lokis is verbal tonight. I'm hearing sounds out of him that are wild. He just wants to go outside.

OK, gotta go apply stripper.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Does anyone have a focused-beam EMP gun I can borrow? I'm losing my mind with these ghetto-wanna-be's driving by my house with their car stereos turned up to 12 and rattling my goddam windows.

Because books.

Iced tea = lifeblood

Any tea! I drink tea all day long, hot or iced.
