You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

fronch=front

yes but it's only pronounced that way in conjunction with room. It's really all one word, fronchroom.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Hee. Daisy Jane just independently discovered the Halting Problem, an unsolvable computing problem.

Hometown had Jewel-Osco for a while. Used to be a Skaggs Alpha Beta (oh, god that reminded me: we used to refer to the sort of middle-to-late aged women who shopped in frumpy, torn and stained sweats with birdsnest hair "skaggs". So funny and horrible. Especially since as an adult? I totally get those women.)

Walmart has driven all but Albertson's and a few smallish discount non-chains out.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So I'm watching the Republican debate on tape delay, and I have to say how refreshing it is to listen to politicians who seem thoughtful and knowledgable. Even when they're lying, at least they aren't smirking idiots.

I just lemon-oiled my oak window shelf (handmade! Never again! Hardwoods are HARD) and I keep going over to sniff it. Oak+ lemon oil is just such a warm and lovely scent. I'd forgotten that we used lemon oil on oak until I was at my parents', with their new shelves. I've been depriving myself of this for a decade because I forgot?

Shameful.

And I think I'm probably going to end up going overboard, lemon oiling everything possible in the next week or two. Well, at least everything does need a thorough dusting...
