Guestwriting for me is really a thankless job, I’m a taskmaster. Thanks to all who stepped in to pinch hit, including those whose work didn’t make it up because I had to come back before I got too spoiled having people fight over posting on my behalf. Let’s give all the brave souls a round of applause:

Qui Si Mangia Bene: One killer reuben

Okay, show’s over now. EYES BACK ON ME, FUCKERS.
Thursday Night Smackdown 
they were ok, i guess… but so freaking glad you’re BACK!!!
They were great (loved the Sherpas!), but I’m here to read YOU and damn glad you’re feeling better. Or at least guilt-stricken enough you’ve come back to your adoring fans.
It’s great to see you back! I really hope you’re feeling better.
I had a lotta fun Michelle! It was fun being a sailor for a day. But we are so glad to have you back.
Your guest writers were just fine and dandy, but there ain’t nothin like the real thing, baby. Glad you’re back!
“cursing like syphilitic Marseillese sailors”
Fucking brilliant turn of phrase.
Hey, you’re back! Hope life’s treating you okay. If your absence taught us one thing, it’s that there are other funny bloggers out there, so thanks for the fine selectsh of guests 🙂
