Why does lurking in Natter always end in a brain scrub. WHY?

ita.

Mainly, her links.

Why is scrabble scary between ita and Polgara?

I have purchased and installed a nonpainful toilet seat, and reinstalled my contraband showerhead.

My family aren't a bunch of board game players (not a euphamism) but my brother married one. We humor her, but she's despaired of us, as we all have a bad tendency to find loopholes in the rules.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Because SOME PEOPLE are dirrrty.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Anyone playing board games with Polgara is scary. I just can't say no to Scrabble. And it's SUPER!

Made an appointment with a nutritionist too. All the ducks, baby. I'll never know what worked. Hopefully something will.

Ah, so she's like my SIL. Too bad my OED online subscription doesn't travel.

But the Scrabble dictionary does. And will. Booyah!

I'm not good at Scrabble, but I'm getting better at the cursed internet Boggle. I still, as with Scrabble, spend too much looking for stuff that isn't there.

I fear I'll be pretty bad at Scrabble for a while. My vocab is still fucked up.

I don't think I've played it since ...well, a long time. High school, maaaaybe.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Both Polgara and ita are scary competitive.

I, too, find loopholes in board game rules, and I always find that fun, but Polgara is all, "That's cheating!" And I'm all, "it's a board game."

And then it just goes downhill from there.

I just spent 10 minutes at the Burke-Williams site window shopping. If there are any weird wealthy benefactors lurking, I would like a spa facial, pedicure, manicure, and perhaps a massage, and an eyebrow wax. This will cost about $300.00.

Think of it as a contribution to PBS. I'll keep on being a clownish misanthrope for your entertainment, and in exchange, you restore some of my sanity so I won't be locked away in a funny farm.

So, Mr. or Mrs. weird lurker with too much money and an obsessive fondness for me, just send along that gift certificate, will ya?

In non panhandling-for-beautification news, some developer purchased the Derby and surrounding land. So now, a Whole Foods along with luxury condos and underground parking are supposed to be built on that land.

There's some sort of a public hearing tonight. My neighbor just called to see if I'd go with and I now feel guilted into it. Tearing down the Derby takes a part of my neighborhood that I cherish away. And wil also cause noisy construction for the next few years while they dig, build, and fuck up traffic on my block.
