Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Can you believe I don't yet know what I'll be doing this weekend? I mean, either we're having a horror movie night for the little ones (uh, who are 17 and 25), or I'll be in hospital having one in a sequence of anxiety attacks.

Such an interesting choice. I thought the hospital was a done deal.

I love ita's precise approach to liquid libation.

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

I love ita's precise approach to liquid libation.

And that was, no pun intended, merely the tip of the iceberg.

As far as hospitalisation, the when is still up for debate. Migraine guy won't be around on the weekend, which is when I want to go in. He's trying to find someone else to monitor me, but he hasn't called me back since Monday, so I don't know if I'm scaring kiddies (and having a drunken sleepover!) or freaking out.

Because we live on a boat, our water delivery system is a drinking water safe garden hose. Anyone who has ever drunk water from a hose will understand why we drink bottled water. Even filtered it still has that funky hot plastic hose taste, but we reuse the bottles (5 gallon) every week.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I am so checked out of work right now.

Only 45 minutes to go.

Isn't it though, Burrell? I'm blogsurfing like a crazy person these days. Perhaps because my LJ is so damned whiny.

There was another similarly retro LA-themed one that I need to find again.

Looking around the table in this meeting the water count is one manually filled bottle, one Fiji, one Arrowhead, and one Crystal Geyser. Also Jamba Juice and a Diet Coke.

I cannot begin to imagine how my boss remembers all the details he does. But he probably doesn't web surf during meetings.

Always Anti-fascist!

Phoenix water is weirder now than I remember as a kid. I don't understand why. But we buy water from the machine things.

I finally found steel toed mary janes online (seems my mind drifts to them in meetings, since I was already thinking about them before trying to decode STMJ in the corner of a page of notes) and they are not even close to my size.

Life is not fair. But at least I know Docs made a number of them.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Hey! That's my size!

Awesome find, ita.
