I just now saw the local story, and yeah. People seem to be holed up in offices.
You're nice, and you're funny and you don't smoke, and okay, werewolf, but that's not all the time. I mean, three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around, either.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I watched Weeds for a while. I don't know if it's a good comparison for Breaking Bad, other than they both have to do with illegal drug distribution.
I haven't watched the last half of the most recent season, yet, but I'd say the main theme of Breaking Bad is the journey from exploring this whole meth cooking thing as sort of a reasonable response of the main character to a truly terrible situation to the growing realization that all those choices he made that kept getting him deeper (into the underworld and into his own darkness) were not really things he was forced to, but options he preferred. It's dark dark dark and kind of harrowing (which is why I haven't finished watching) but really really good.

Yikes on the hostage situation! I hope that ends up okay for everyone, somehow.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Just saw that they were able to evacuate the onsite daycare, which is a relief.

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

Thank dog for small mercies.
Jamaica has a player in the US Open! And he's 6'5. He should marry me right now and save all the wasted time.

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

so yesterday i was freaking out about my trip to Chicago next month for my BFF's wedding. couldn't find shuttle service, charter bus times weren't working, hotel even WITH the wedding discount was too expensive for me to swing alone, yadayadayadacakes.
TODAY is a brand new day. co-worker can get me an awesome discount for the hotel($29 a night!!) and with the money i save there, i can afford to get a limo to pick me up/take me back to the airport.
sometimes things just have a way of working out. HUGE weight lifted off of me. now? i need to find a beautimous dress because we're going to have the pro photographer take some pics of us. yay!!

Oh, wow. Okay, I am definitely moving that show up in my mental queue, even before Mad Men.
