"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Alas, I have not Tigger in my this morning. Being woken up at 3 am will do that to a person (as I posted in Bitches, a chemical plant one town over blew up; it was so loud I thought part of the house I was in had collapsed).

However, I'm out of work at 2 today and I have the Tardis for the weekend, so maybe a BOUNCE is forthcoming later.

ETA Yay msbelle!!!

Did someone finally smash the power center of that accursed game?

I think maybe it's just too early. That game is cursed, btw. People here are talking about boxes I don't have yet, and it's disheartening. This game is in ur brainz, crushin ur self-esteem.

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

Msbelle, that's so great.

I keep waking up thinking I'm hearing other people in my house.

Except it's not a house--it's an apartment building, and of course there are other people.

pie day! I want a pie day!

Sadly, today is a normal full day of school for me. Granted, this is my first "full" work week in two weeks, maybe longer. So it's sort of hard to be truly disgruntled.

I'm just sitting here, sleepily twiddling my thumbs and waiting for them to send me home so I can throw a suitcase and a bag of presents in my car. I'm going to need more caffeine to deal with I-94.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Thank you all. I will be starting back on the dreaded game soon. BE WARNED!

Yes, msbelle. I'm not looking forward to the travel, but I'm hoping the time there will be peaceful.

And then I remember that the holidays always have arguments, and I sigh.

I will hide if I have to. I'm already thisclose to being a shutin anyway. I can do that on vacation too.

This is a food holiday. the only arguement should be about who gets the last piece of pie.

the dreaded game crashes this computer.

Wow, you could hear that? I saw the coverage in the paper and it was -- freaky. There's a retirement home for the deaf there, and of course they couldn't hear it, but they sure as hell felt it.
