Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My friend's father's dog is in a clinical trial for doggy allergy medicine, I can't remember which, but a popular human pill one, and they're giving it by spraying it in his mouth, which I guess is the same difference as up your nose. Anyway, my friend's father tasted the stuff. Because he felt bad for the dog.

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

Did it have an effect on the guy? That's kinda...it's dog medicine.

Actually, what's weirdest is that I don't feel confident about dosage this way. You take a pill, you took a pill, right? Even liquids are easier, in my head. Was that pump I took really a proper pump? Maybe I oversprayed myself. How can I be sure?

Okay. drugged up text message sent.

It's exactly the same as the people medicine, except for the dosing, apparently, but anyway, he only tasted a little, and said it was NAST. No report on any allergy symptoms.

It shouldn't be the same. It should be, like, beef flavoured. I mean, to be fair.

And that's why he felt so bad for the dog!

I can't! It was loads of fun, but I will be paying off my credit card for the next five years.

Though I suppose it's possible San Francisco isn't to blame for all debt.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Yeah, but still. I think that's a little harsh.

If it had said "2008: The end of an error," I wouldn't have harshed on it. It's the fact that they specified the inaugural date and got it wrong that bugged me. I mean, in the whole process of designing, printing, and shipping that sticker, no one noticed the mistake? This isn't just one person having a brain fart or making a typo. I know I'm a pedant, but I stand by my cringe.

All my debt is here. Well, except for the nationally funded debts.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I just booked a haircut appointment at Mario Tricoci for Wednesday. I've never spent $50-60 on just a cut before, so I hope they give me a good cut to make it worth the money.

I'm still waivering a bit on whether I should color it or not. I don't mind the grey, a lot of people have told me that the grey actually works for me, and if I start coloring, I'm afraid I'll have to stick with it.

OTOH, I'll probably end up looking like the oldest person at the wedding, even though I won't be, just because every other woman that I know will be there all color their hair, including Mom and her generation. Feh.
