I'm fairly certain I said no interruptions.

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

Jess, I can play the turn on my iPod, except now I don't have a word. I think my phone was protecting me.

Normally I'm a Rules Girl (when it comes to games), but I think there should be a gentleperson's agreement about Scrabble and its ilk. If the word is just really weird, don't do it. I say this about "toped". What is that about? It's ruining the board for me.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

If one of us doesn't open up the board soon, I'm going to be out of two-letter words to squeeze into corners.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Well, he wasn't killed by a bear.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Tom, as you know, honey badger don't give a shit.

One of my teammates chose Honey Badger as her skater name.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

That's perfect, Cash!

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

Cash, that's great!

I want to see a video of a cat playing with a dolphin. But it only looks like playing to us. Really they're battling for dominance.

I should get back to the con call. I'm taking notes.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Waistline stuff is a real issue for me. And I do the classic mistake that those shows always correct people about -- I try to hide my waistline rather than define it. It's part of what contributes to my androgyny issues, I think.

But seriously, the waistlines that girls clothing has now is, like, at my groin. It's ridic.

Took Seabiscuit in to the vet today for some pretty bad swelling. Doc says it's an allergen reaction, gave him steroids and antibiotics. Poor pup. He needs to go home to Arizona, where there aren't all these nasty allergens. Took a pet taxi to do it. I didn't know there was such a thing, but it was very handy!

Aw, poor doggie. I never consider them getting allergies.

We just got office IM capabilities back. Only part of IT is allowed to have it, because we're strictly regulated. No one outside of IT gets it without special dispensation. You have to attend an hour session before they'll even install it on your machine, and you have to sign your life away.

You're not allowed to swear (even in abbreviations), type in foreign languages, or really use it for personal communications. So why is 1/3 of my use since I gotten it "The smell of this mango is driving me insane."? IMs are sampled at random by the CIO for review. I don't want her to read that.

Is that the same on dresses?
