Why not.
They've rewritten their own "unchanging, holy word of god" book enough to suit themselves.

Happy Tuesday, AF!  Easy on the all-you-can-fill-up-on breadsticks. I, for one will miss you  lol I only ate one (breadstick)
Aw, you are a sweetie.

Disagree on the bread sticks: Eat as much salad and bread sticks as you can at the restaurant and take the entree home for breakfast, lunch and dinner the next day - they're big enough for three meals, after all. :p
About $15-20 for a bottomless dinner of salad and bread sticks, and about three meals the next day? That's a deal!
Starting to slack at work.  haha a most brilliant idea!  I ended up having soup and salad, and then splitting a piece of pumpkin cheese cake with friends. mmmm!
The salad at OG seems so simple, but I can never duplicate it at home whenever I try.  Must be the dressing.

Sorry, in a bloody weird mood today . . .

Why not.
They've rewritten their own "unchanging, holy word of god" book enough to suit themselves.
The content of it gets really, really suspect in places, though. Like how Harry's aunt and uncle are both atheists, and so there's like fifty references to "the Dawkins" in a few lines of dialogue. Or how the prose is just a bit too adjective-heavy to be a real person honestly trying to write a thing.
I want it to be legit, because then it's a peek into someone's truly ridiculous life, but at times it just reads like a Poe's handbook.

If it is real, she's not a bad writer, tbh.

lol That must be it. I need to make the salad, while undressed. 
I like your weird moods. 
You're about the only one who does.
People at work flee when they know I'm in a strange mood.

Wonder if I should rewrite the bible to be more user friendly?

Perhaps, you should talk more about ...un-dressing. It might make a difference. 

At work?
Scrubs aren't the most sexy of clothing.
Kinda a mood dampener, really.
I used to have a cool pic on FB before some friggin prude reported it.
It was a naked female doctor wearing just an open lab coat, smiling insanely, and holding two VERY large needles.
I used to say it's how I distract patients.
