What A Day Quotes

“We headed toward the creepy old slaughterhouse full of dangerous beings. Which... pretty much tells you what kind of day I was having, right there.”
― Jim Butcher, Skin Game

“You heard, right? Terrence and I are getting married. He's mine," she added unnecessarily.
"Yup. Congrats."
She waited for more, but that's all I had to say on that matter.
"That's it? After you tried to steal him from me senior year, I figured you'd have more to say."

I fought the urge to roll my eyes. "Because that all happened, what, seven years ago? Maybe even eight? How are you not even over it yet?"
She scoffed, so I added, "And if you recall, he came to me when he saw you for the bully you were. Besides, I remember you getting pretty cozy with Derek as well."

"Forget it. I was a fool to think you'd help me." I started to walk away, but knew I couldn't leave it like that and turned back around. "Congratulations to you and Terrence. He's a good guy and there aren't many of them left. I hope you make each other happy. Truly."
She stood there with her mouth hanging open as I walked away, trembling but proud.
I'd witnessed a tragedy, been interrogated by the police, reconciled with Bernadette, told off Amir, and confronted Janet all in one day. And it wasn't even dinnertime yet.”
