A flashlight and a dark room can be pretty good entertainment. Duplo blocks are a good suggestion. Little matchbox cars can be good, but are sort of hit and miss. Leif likes doing mazes as well.
Sorry, Captain. I'm real sorry. I shoulda kept better care of her. Usually she lets me know when something's wrong. Maybe she did, I just wasn't paying attention...

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Doesn't Weatherbug install a whole bunch of adware?
Yup.
I still love Legos, but not stepping on them in bare feet. OW!
Legos are a hazard, but nothing sucks more than stepping on a d4. Those things are little plastic caltrops.
Taking a break from cleaning my house for the party tomorrow. Thankfully, the weather forecast has changed to partly cloudy, so no trying to figure out how to cram everyone in my house and grill in a thunderstorm.
Went to the DMV on Wednesday for my new liscense and I will definitely remember to drive the extra 10 minutes to this DMV from now on. I arrived at 11am and was out the door at 11:20. Service was quick and the employees were friendly. When the cashier line started backing up, they even started taking people with exact change at one of the registration counters. It was like the anti-DMV.

OMG, half of our office is off today, and the other half is counting the minutes until they can go home.

More evidence that communist countries just foster a weak work ethic.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My big BIG boss's admin just asked for my home number. Hmmph. I don't think they need that.

It's worse than that, Gud. We're civil servants.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

You need an extra number. Sorta' like an extra emal address that you give out to organizations that might spam you.
Stupid cellphone question: Can (some) cellphones be set up to not ring when certain callers (ID'd by Caller ID) call you?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I have spent the last three days cleaning my house. I feel virtuous.
I also feel really sick of cleaning.

Some civil servants are just like my loved ones
They work so hard and they try to be strong

Ann, that's a ferret.
I'm not quite the only one here today. And I'm trying to accomplish something. Really, I am.
