None poker face on him.

It would perhaps be too optimistic to call this a WIP vs "vague noodling around the edges of an idea." But it IS #WIPWednesday. So.

He's still an ajeossi before his time,
summoning a sigh that would suit an
exhausted man twice his age, even as he
nimbly drops a shrimp into her bowl so fast
she almost doesn't catch him doing it.

"I'm too old to be someone new,"' he
answers, sitting back. All innocence, as if
the shrimp had just levitated itself across
the table without assistance,

"I hear people even older than you do it all
the time." she says

Time hasn't taught him any better control
over his expressions. Being Gaon must be
like walking around naked all the time. The
beating heart of him on display. It must be
awful.

How is he. Gaon doesn't ask. Has been
resolutely not asking

Because she's learned something of mercy
since thev last met. and because she owes
him for the cat. and because it will annoy
Yohan, Elijah answers anyway.

I am not surprised this orange boy got caught in a trap. Nothing in that had except love and a love of food.

Reading a job posting at the theological seminary to see if it might be of interest to share with a friend, and even though it 100% makes sense for this job, "excavation experience" is killing me.

QUALIFICATIONS/REQUIREMENTS

The Director of the Kelso Museum of Near Eastern Archaeology should be a thoughtful and
inquisitive scholar who demonstrates both academic excellence and a deep respect for the
cultures, peoples, and histories represented in the Museum's collections. This individual should
model curiosity, care, and integrity in preserving and interpreting the artifacts entrusted to the
Seminary, and should bring a spirit of collaboration that connects the Museum's work to the

Minimum of five years' experience in the care and interpretation of museum and archival
collections.
•
Demonstrable experience in data management and digital communications, and

That's incredible. I bet I'd like it better as a sport if we also called it that.

I can also still say cat, because of De Poezenboot.

I do not think crimes committed during Shrimp Time should count against Sasha, that's a special circumstance.

Thank goodness I've completely forgotten the basic traveller's Dutch I picked up in my twenties or that could have been even worse.

Just cycled through maybe every language I have ever studied even slightly, trying to remember how to thank my Spanish speaking Lyft driver. I hope he enjoyed whatever unholy mix of grazie and 谢谢 I emitted while trying to get to gracias, with my brain simultaneously going danke? merci??

Knowing the people involved, MOST of this is just like "how hanging out with our friends used to go" except the DMB groupie part.

Although I might prefer that to another friend's (short-lived) romance which lives on in our hearts for her vehemence that "noir" and "camp" were identical concepts.
