Laura: I wrote a young adult novel because I actually know someone who works in publishing and that's what they suggested. It was about this girl whose id kind of pops out of her body and follows her around. He was a little demon guy who looked like [my boyfriend].
Jake: So if the id looks like [boyfriend], what do the ego and super ego look like?
Me: Well, one of them wears a cape.
Jake: Obviously.

Me: I've printed two of the arranger candidates' parts so far, and they both use Finale's "Maestro" font for the band and chorus arrangements, and "Jazz" for the jazz and rock band arrangements.
Teresa: Well, that's what makes it jazz: the font.

Me: I wandered out of bed at about 11:30 this morning.
Susan: Not me! I had to get up early to obsess about the fact that I haven't done my taxes.

He Has a Point

Me: I want Leonard Nimoy to read that to me!
Greg: Who doesn't?

Contract Negotiations

Jane: I still maintain you should have held out for the chocolate.
