Damnit. I thought, because you can file for a week starting on Sunday, that you could file for the previous week through Saturday. Apparently you have to file by Friday. CRAP.
Just not what I need right now.

Is there a French speaker in the house?
I need a translation of the following:
I wish I'd never married you, you treasonous bitch!
Thanks!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
I watched Legion and stayed for Spider-Man. Now I can blame Sheryl for my getting nothing done this morning! Yay?
Heh, glad to oblige Theo.
In other news I bought a new computer today. Haven't set it up yet.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Despite the generally sucky rainy work-filled weekend, at least one of my prayers has been answered. The Thai restaurant next door opened up, and HMOG is it good! Tom Yum soup among the best I've had, and basil chicken that is the best iteration of that dish I've ever eaten. I hope it does well - it's priced more like a fine dining restaurant than the Asian buffets people are used to in this area, but the food and atmosphere are definitely worth it.

I followed my doing little this morning by taking a long nap this afternoon. Maybe I will get something done now?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I just turned on the TV to news of a building collapse not far from where I just was! Scary.
Edit: Apparently a 20-story crane fell over and crushed a building across the street. Yikes. [link]

While finally uploading my CDs to the new laptop, I discovered that I own a Kenny G CD. I weep for my youth and the mistakes I made.

I wish I'd never married you, you treasonous bitch!
Well, I don't think I would try a literal translation, since I don't think a French person would use that phrasing. So, assuming 1) the bitch in question is a woman, and 2) this is 18th/19th century, I would probably use either:
"Je n'aurais jamais dû épouser une traîtresse comme vous!" (I should have never married a traitor such as you!)
"Traîtresse! Je regrette amèrement de vous avoir épousée!" (Traitor! I bitterly regret having married you!)
