Sometimes I miss having powers... Oh. Oh! I know what this is! This is peer pressure! Any second now you're gonna make me smoke tobacco and--and have drugs!

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

Well, they *don't* serve lunch at exit interviews, so maybe you're getting a promotion?

Do they serve lunch at those? Last one I got, I asked for, and my boss said "Sure!" and then I got a large raise. Fuck the credit collapse, man.

I worry that there might be hugging coming up, or something. I mean, if it was an upcoming project, or something *normal*, my manager would know.

Gah, bleargh, shudder.

I could kind of see Swifty doing it because he has just cause to be pissed off at me. I've been shoving terrible tasting meds down his throat for the last 3 weeks.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What is wrong with cats?!

They just wanna be free, man! You can't tell them what to do, where to pee!

You are allowed to decline hugs, especially in a work environment. "Thanks, I'm not comfortable with that"

Lisah, that looks delicious! Kinda tempting.

I know, right? I am terrible at menu planning so I'm thinking this might help me start getting organized in that regard if nothing else.

They work very hard at letting us know who's boss.

Tom, I wish I could physically tacklehug you right now.

You're kind of incredible, you know?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That class looks great, Tom, I'm really glad you're going. Not least because it will lead to more Scola pictures for me to goggle at, yay!

Ack, I forgot I have a ton of beta to do for a Big Bang. ::pencils that in for the weekend::

My phone just pinged me: yay my new dog bed has been delivered! I ordered the really sturdy canvas dog-bed from LL Bean for TNG. No more cheap $15 beds from Cost Plus or Target! She better like it...

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Tom, the class sounds like a very positive thing both in terms of practicalities and the decision to prioritize things you need, and I applaud you for it.
