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

My sister needs to not correct my spelling mistakes in emails replete with spelling errors of her own. Jesus, it's rude.

God, my head hurts. And I'm strangely ravenous. That doesn't usually happen at the same time.

Oh, my. NY knowing people. I have a wedding to attend at 91st and 5th. Where should I be looking to be able to afford to stay?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

You're welcome to crash at my place. It's about a 40 minute subway ride. I do it all the time, my therapist is up there.

You're going to a wedding at the Cooper-Hewitt Museum?

I will NEVER get a tattoo on my neck like my dad. Sorry, Dad.

I kind of want a tattoo on the back of my neck, but I haven't decided what I would get. So that's somewhere lower on the List Of Tattoos.

The next one is (probably) going to be a Ray Bradbury quote. I just need to find the right one. And then the right font. Argh, font decisions.

Had my first followup post op appointment today. In the ten days since my operation, I've lost 10 1/2 pounds!!!

It's not just me, Tom, it's me and my (bitchy) sister. I wouldn't want to impose all that.

The wedding is at some mansion down there. When I priceline hotels in that neighbourhood they're pretty pricey, but I haven't stayed in a hotel in NY on my own dime in forever, so I don't remember how much it costs. How far away is reasonable, and what price range should I set my expectations on?

The hostel looks interesting, but I'm not sure I could talk my sister into sharing a bathroom. The shared bedroom would work perfectly.

Congrats, Kathy!

Hmm. But not right for my tastes. I'll probably go with some sort of script/handwriting font. Suzi, I am ignoring your suggestion. I'm not even telling Pete about it, so you won't have to deal with a font lecture from him.

I think I will re-read From Dust Returned today or tonight, because I have this feeling that the quote I want is in there. I thought it was in Something Wicked This Way Comes, but when I re-read it in October, nothing jumped out at me.
