Coding and Sleeping

I was hoping to do this but then, of course, had a big car repair to pay for.

We've been pounded by car repairs and vet bills of late. Just to add to it, Christmas Eve we got a flat tire and Christmas Day we got a dead battery. It was like getting a lump of coal, though it didn't have any serious impact on Holiday enjoyment.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OMG, I'm so lame. I'm pretty sure I'm getting taken out to dinner tonight by my uncle, and I don't even want to go, because there's enough time to go home after work in between and I'm not going to want to head back out! Lame.

Jesse, find a bar and have a nice glass of wine instead.

Then I'll really fall asleep! And seriously, it's three hours in between when I'll leave work and the reservation, so too much time to waste, I think.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Toothpaste!!!!!

I'm going to have to get some tooth powder on principle. Dang.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Three hours? A perfect movie-viewing interval! Or go hang out at the local big-box bookstore for some overpriced coffee and bookreading.

I'm now home and have already picked up my very messy dining room of all the junk mail, clothes on the drying rack, and Xmas gift bags. I tossed the red tissue paper on the floor for my cat, who is greatly appreciating it by shredding it and lying on the tattered remains.

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

You know, I only had gallon bags. So the TSA can blow me.

Oh, now that intrigues me. But no, I'll go home and get my cousin's present and then come back. No big, really.

Allyson, most airports I've been in recently have had quart size bags available at check in, I'm pretty sure. Unless it was just LGA multiple times.

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

Went to ER. For various and sundry reasons, including serendipity, I think this one might have worked. I'll have to work during the four day weekend to avoid having to take off non-existent sick time, but I'm dizzingly okay with that.

Naptime.
