this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Apparently we need to have another come-to-Jesus talk about not calling me at work for bullshit reasons.

That seems like the kind of thing you can easily blame on The Man, no?

That's the tack I'm going to take. I think he just thinks of things and then calls me immediately so that he doesn't forget. I'll suggest he write stuff down to refer to when he calls me at home after work hours.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

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

I don't listen to the radio, but it's not Christmas until Band Aid gets there!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I think he just thinks of things and then calls me immediately so that he doesn't forget.

Oh, I'm sure!

I'll suggest he write stuff down to refer to when he calls me at home after work hours.

Good call. "Because, you know, we're really not supposed to take personal calls during the work day...."

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I still have that cassette.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I'll suggest he write stuff down to refer to when he calls me at home after work hours.

Does he text? That would be a good solution.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Being home sick means that I'm watching a lot of Animal Planet, which means seeing the "We will prove that Sasquatch is real!" commercial approximately six thousand times.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Perhaps they're trying to attain consensual reality, Dana?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

A student just emailed me, half an hour before the final exam starts, to ask what room it's in.

Better than a half hour into it?
