I'm sorry, dad. You know I would never have tried to save River's life if I had known there was a dinner party at risk.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have a rep to maintain, and a grinchy outlook to hold onto for the next month, and this sort of news (and, like lisah's wedding) isn't helping me in the least.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
(Yup, I'm so teary - I'm tearing up at songs I know by heart and stuff, it's ridiculous - that I forget the important stuff.)
Oh, I've got a song about the number Pi that I should send to you.
"a beautiful brain and a good heart"
Duh! I could've told you that.
Nilly's little boy. What a sweet notion.

You know, I generally hate it when someone has their secretary call to say "can you hold for ___". If you are important enough, I don't mind. Like, say the President of the university, or even the Provost (my boss), but when you are the Provost's fucking secretary, you do not have the RECEPTIONIST call me to ask me to hold for you.

Wait. You got a call that said, "Please hold for the Provost's secretary?"
Woo. Highfalutin!

Holy crap my dad bought Dylan a 1/4 size guitar for Hannukah.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
All presents of musical instruments for preschoolers slide mysteriously under the couch where they are rediscovered at six month intervals and not before.
