asked for a skateboard or skater boy? Ah memories of being a Junior in highschool and having a crush on 8th grade (SCANDAL!!) skater boys. They were oh so adorable cute with their floppy hair on top and shaved sides, baggy preppy clothes and hunched shoulders.
Anya Christina Emmanuella Jenkins. Twenty years old. Born on the fourth of July — and don't think there weren't jokes about that my whole life, mister, 'cause there were. 'Who's our little patriot?' they'd say, when I was younger and therefore smaller and shorter than I am now.

Because books.
My brother sent me this link, a piece written by a female lieutenant commander in the Navy. Well worth reading, I think, especially today.

msbelle, if you have time, can you pop on to AIM as I have a brief question for you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Thanks for linking that, Amy.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Dick Van Dyke's Life Saved by Porpoises
American actor Dick Van Dyke claims that his life was saved by porpoises. Van Dyke fell asleep on his surfboard one day, and when we woke up, he could no longer see the shore. He asserts that porpoises pushed him back to land:
“I woke up out of sight of land … and I started paddling with the swells and I started seeing fins swimming around me and I thought, ‘I’m dead!’”, he said
“They turned out to be porpoises [and] they pushed me all the way to shore. I’m not kidding.”

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Why have you not posted since I left home? Now I'm forced to recite inanity.
Good inanity--I found my work ID, quite by accident while I was filling my car with gas. Whew. Because the apartment search very much wasn't working out. Since I also found my lost earrings, all I'm missing now is the cap for my flash drive. I know I shouldn't have bought one that small, but it was really cute.
Why can't I find a place that serves breakfast potatoes? I want some bad, with cheese and salsa for brekkie. I'm tired of cake. I'm trying a jalapeno bagel. I don't expect it to end well.
Where can I find good flavoured black tea bags? What's a well-recommended brand?

I'm trying to schedule more meetings in NYC, so when I go down for a meeting on a Thursday in a few weeks, I can stay over. So far, no luck! Bleh.

Do hash browns qualify as potatoes? Because dozens of places do hash browns.

You are also to blame, young man.

No, breakfast potatoes (hash browns don't show up for me until the end of the page).
