I don't remember that Journey song, AmyLiz, which actually surprises me, but yes oh yes word to 8th grade REO Speedwagon lurve.
Heard it from a friend who...
And I wonder, what possible catastrophe came crashing down from heaven and brought this dashing stranger to tears?

Because books.
Oh, you'd know it if you heard it.

I sometimes nap at 7 pm. Usually only 15 minutes or so. Sometimes need it to slow me down for the evening, especially if I've been running errands and traffic is bad. It's a reset of sorts.
I can't tell you how happy it makes me that we only have two more days of obnoxious campaign ads.
Omg, yes. About the only ones that don't drive me batshit are for races I'm not voting in because often I've never heard of these people (I'm city, but these are for the surrounding counties) so they are just bemusing and strange. But I'm really really really tired of the puppy references. And the city bashing. Hey, you county fuckers! You work here, you drive our roads, use our services but don't want to support us! You are part of the problem!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Now I have REO Speedwagon in my head. Good times.
I don't really want to work today. Maybe I'll do some of the reading that's piled up on my desk. That's work-adjacent.

Aww, I don't mean you! It's the ads against the mayor that are very much "City SUCKS! Cesspool!" as if the biggest city is the bastard child of the state. And I'm like, dude.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Where is my lizard?
I have a plastic lizard that sits on one of my work monitors. Now it's gone. I can tell the cleaning lady moved my monitors over the weekend.
Hey - monitor lizard. That just occured to me.

I skip over most of the ads (thanks dvr!), so the ones I do catch crack me up because they seem completely out of context. But the senate race seems vicious.

I don't want to be Superman. I want to stay little and be next to Mommy.
We had a message on our answering machine from Hillary Clinton. My 6yo son played it back while I was busy with someone else and very carefully wrote down the phone number at the end (further information, I guess -- I wasn't listening). He was so proud of himself.
Several times the recording that called us was "Please hold. All of our attendants are busy."
