The other was a questionaire about how easily you get distracted or avoidant in certain situations.
They should see the lengths I'll go to to avoid calling people on the phone.
Reynolds, I'm a dangerous-minded man on a ship loaded with hurt. Now, why you got me chatting with your peons?

Spike's Bitches 35: We Got a History
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I did that test!
I hated it. It was boring and took too long. I was joking with my therapist that the real test was that you could tell you have ADD when you get too bored pressing the space bar and just wander away.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
How do they test for that?
See, I thought they'd do something like have you watch a Ken Burns documentary while dangling a quarter just visible out of the corner of your eye and time how long it would take you to go "Ooh, shiny!"

We did have a conversation that included "shiny" and "ferret brained" which was oddly buffista-like in nature.

Here is the deal with house buying. We bought a house in a neighborhood that I never want to leave. So my plan is to stay here forever. And slowly do the stuff we want to do in order to improve the house. some small projects, some big projects. I like doing them as long as I get some breaks from the chaos. I admit that at the moment there are some day to day money things that get to me. However, if we had to sell under desperate terms - we could sell at the low end of what our house is worth and have enough money here for a year - two years in a lot of other places. I feel blessed.

I think shiny and ferret-brained should be used more often in combination.
I am being a responsible homeowner and avoiding taming the jungle that is know as my yard. I might have to take before and after pictures to reward myself.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Aimee, get some rest. May your dreams be sweet enough to grant a bit of peace.

Because books.
::hugs on Aimee, and skips everything else to say...:
I think I have a job, if I want it. At a family-run kennel, for cash under the table, maybe twenty (or more) hours a week. Essentially cleaning up poop and pee, walking the hounds, and scrubbing place down every day.
I'm kind of unreasonably excited by this.
