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

Chacha says I shouldn't have sex with a stranger--only in a committed relationship. I should discuss expectations before engaging in a threesome.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Jesus, google "norovirus outbreak" if you want to skeeve yourself out.

Because books.

I think it may be sweeping more areas than New England, yeah.

The news here this morning said sixty-something students at Rider College had what they thought was norovirus.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

There have been a few cases in SF too.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Quick hivemind plea... what's a good OTC dewormer for dogs? My sis is helping a friend who's rescued a stray. Sorry to post and run, late for a meeting.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

So if you want to see Uranus, tonight is apparently the best night to do it.

And it's possible to see Uranus with the naked eye. (But just barely. You have to know exactly where to look.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jesus, google "norovirus outbreak" if you want to skeeve yourself out.

No thanks!

Chacha says I shouldn't have sex with a stranger--only in a committed relationship. I should discuss expectations before engaging in a threesome.

Chacha sure has a lot to say...

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

I'm catching up on Ellen, so seeing the local news promos, and as of last week, apparently there was a "highly contagious stomach bug sweeping New England." So maybe that's what you have, Dana?

At least five or six of my students have had some kind of stomach bug in the past week or two.

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

Plane travel means anything going around one medium-to-big city is almost certainly going around every other medium-to-big city too.

The news here this morning said sixty-something students at Rider College had what they thought was norovirus.

Yikes!

Two separate podcasts this week had segments on MRSA and how it's basically everywhere now. I may never touch anything ever again.

(Also, TDR TB outbreaks in India! Don't Google that either.)

The news here this morning said sixty-something students at Rider College had what they thought was norovirus.

There was an outbreak at a cheerleading convention here in Seattle last weekend...

So, I had three parts to my interview this afternoon--a computer test, a phone interview, and an in-person interview.

The computer one went OK, I think--it was kind of insultingly easy ("Close this document without closing windows!") but I worry that I didn't do it the "Right" way, so...we'll see. The phone interview went great. And the in-person one...I couldn't really tell. He seemed kinda dour, but also his questions were more difficult to answer than hers (they were both working from scripts, but had different questions)
