Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You people don't manage enough IT projects, I'm thinking.

I don't know about that. I'm pretty sure I manage just the right number of IT projects. (Zero.)

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

Ah, everyone should manage at least one IT project. For shits and giggles.

How do I still miss MSCL?

Because books.

Oh, yeah, it's us. Nice try, lady.

I was as pure as the driven snow before I came here!

What?

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

ita, sigh. Now I miss my own personal Rayann Graff (who, like Rayann, was a self-destructive mess who, after a couple of half-hearted attempts to corrupt me, was content to let me trundle along on my Angela path while she Rayanned along--she was an utter catastrophe, and she was awesome and I still love her).

One of my Rayanne Graffs is in prison for embezzling millions of pounds. But mostly from that show my takeaway was that I feel really bad about my Sharon still.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I can't believe I made someone get pearl-clutchy. Me! Isn't SWAG acceptable business lingo?

Totally. Even if it makes me grit my teeth every single time I hear or use it.

Which is, sadly, often.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I went to "Sealed With a Ganking."

I have overseen zero IT projects, and that's fine with me.

I didn't watch that show until it re-aired in a marathon on MTV my last semester of college, when I was taking bullshit courses, and living out of my car and a friend's couch for the last month of school (because my married swinger roommates got involved with another married swinger couple, and it went south).

I watched the whole marathon one weekend when everyone was out of town, and I just smoked pot and made ramen and brownies and watched the whole damn thing. AIwasFG!

ETA: And you know, I was all ooh, maybe I shouldn't admit I smoked a lot of pot in college on the internet, and then I realized, dude, that was 16 YEARS AGO. Who cares?!

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

I watched MSCL at the time, and tried to get my sister into it, and she pooh-poohed the idea. She later watched the MTV reruns and cried at EVERY EPISODE. She's such a wad of wet tissue paper.

My Rayanne. Fuck, that was a shock when I googled her. She was completely wild and louche in high school, and was convinced I had a secret raunchy lifestyle and was just being coy with her. Still, I wasn't expecting what she went on to do. Even bigger surprise than the tantric sex instructor classmate.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

SWAG=Scientific Wild Assed Guess.

Never heard that one before. I've always known it to mean free stuff, or Stuff We All Get.
