Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

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

Oh, Steph. I sympathize. I also cackle with half-mad Schadenfreude, because now I know it isn't just me, with the authors who type like their keyboard is a manual typewriter from 1976.

Because books.

My bad, Jesse. But I did just add the stormtroopers in love, too. Heh.

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

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

Let us not talk about the house-not-leaving I had going on when I was unemployed. It was highly unhealthy.

These days I kinda crave it and kinda want to avoid it. It's a mixed bag. But Sundays I can't really leave home under my own steam so that's a given writeoff.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Those were taken by one of my coworkers.

Wow. The world truly is small.

There are definitely days I dont leave the house (as opposed to the many days when I leave the state!). One reason I would fear a full time from home job ( with no travel)

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I would like to see people and do things, but the last 3 days when I do it is too much. I am extremely tense and sure I will not see something while driving and it is just very hard to stay focused. As it is, in the house I am mostly keeping my body tense to that I am not shaking my legs or clapping my hands or bouncing. Unsettled beyond where I've ever been before. do not like. want gone immediately. twitchy twitchy crazycakes.

Wow. The world truly is small.

The funniest part is, he keeps coming up outside of work.

First, at a funeral/memorial service, where one of the other people turned out to know him, then at a party I was at, and now here.

And he's just this quiet, mellow dude. Who apparently knows EVERYONE.
