Gronklies! Chumley woke me up by knocking down a whole bunch of stuff that I'd precariously piled up on furniture, so I don't suppose I can hate him too too much.
Oh, yeah, baby, it's snakalicious in here.

Boo creepy foot doctor!
Well, a little late but I got it. I really hated those early "Hooray Beer" Red Stripe ads because I was cringing at what felt like horrible stereotyping, but now that they've gone off on these weird tangents (there's a similar one to the "creepy foot doctor" but not quite as memorable - hence my not remembering the exact details) I'm kinda digging them.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Mmm... I got good sleep and woke up into rainy windy stay-at-home weather. So that's what I'll do!

Well, aside from VW's lovely party tonight, I don't have to go much of anywhere if I don't want to. But I'd better get OUT to the supermarket before it a) gets really bad and b) gets really busy....

Pretty office surroundings can have cons as well as pros, my encounter two years ago with the raccoons that fell through the ceiling being a case in point.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Here this weekend is a Bank Holiday, which means I have Monday off. It's pretty awesome. I'm going to make biscuits. That's the extent of my planning.
In other diamond shoes are too tight news, I can't get to the UK and Ireland dates for Justin Timberlake's tour without joining the damn fan club, which is $45 USD, in addition to the cost of the stupid ticket. Since my only working visa-emblemed card is for my US Bank account, that I can't transfer money to, I can't even shell out the money that I would, you know, shell out. Le frustracion.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
SA, I have a working visa-emblemed card, and a paypal account, if you want me to biuy them for you.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Who was being stereotyped in those ads, Frank?

Huh. It seems I'm going to spend the day being sick. Not sure I approve.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
The weather in NY today has been all rainy and crappy. I've been sitting around my apartment feeling gloomy.
But then the sun just came out. It was only for 30 seconds, through a gap in the clouds, but it suddenly made me feel a lot better.
