The homeless thing. I think I have to stay off that topic for a while.
Ooops, sorry Gus!
That's my girl, large and in-charge. Okay, teensy-weensy and in charge.

Good (insert timezone appropriate greeting here), everyone.
Someone up thread said that the West Wing blew last night. I'd have to agree, other than Alan Alda. My love for him is unwavering, in everything he does...and he looks like my dad.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Gloomcookie, is your tag from The Breeders' song of the same name?
I suppose it's general enough to be from almost anything....

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
No worries, Nora. I'm starting to think that it really a much larger issue, now that is real for me, than I was aware of.
All the urban Buffistas are probably going "Dude, check out a calendar!" right now. "This thing is not new!"

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I've been pretty much cranky for 2 weeks now.
Maybe you should be using those coffee coupons more, huh?
I'm addicted to chai, which seems to be easily gotten from Starbucks, but I'm exploring other options. However, when flying, it's a small steamed whole milk with half a shot of vanilla before I get on the plane.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
That's true about Europe. I realized that in The Netherlands (which I know best since Bro lives there) other countries are like states here in distance, so one sees trucks on the highway from Italy and Belgium and France, rather than Oregon and Vermont, etc. Amd they DO do that in stores.
However, there is always a weird internal judgmentalism we don't get to see. My SiL is Dutch and apparently people from Friesland are considered yokels to the rest of Holland. A Frieslander would get funny looks in an upscale store in Amsterdam, because they would be assumed to be too broke to shop there.

If I hope to sleep, my preferred pre boarding beverage is a double shot vodka tonic.

silly people, the only thing you drink while flying is water.

Then I could be a jittery cranky person and let out a shriek every time someone knocked on the door and then yell at them for startling me! (caffiene makes me very, very jumpy, but not any more alert.)
But my new stress telescope is making me happy. I keep throwing it at the wall, the door, my officemate....

that's usually what I drink once I'm in the plane, but a pre-flight cocktail is very soothing and sleepy making. Just one double shot though.
