Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb

I've got progressives. It took me a while to get used to them, more than any other glasses. It's a bit of a different technique than regular trifocals, it's easier to find the right place by tilting your head. It feels odd a first, but once you get it mapped out, you'll find yourself doing it less and less.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Damn, Cash. I wish I could've helped.

I just got home from a meeting that started at 6:30.

Now tagless for your comfort.

aurelia, your day sounds like it was less than a barrel of monkeys, too.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

This is my second pair. I had my old ones for about 8 years.

Monkeys would've made that meeting complete. I did get to sleep in today so I can't complain too much.

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

Damn, I flaked on cereal with Kat.

Kat! Tomorrow?? I could leave the house.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Oy. Soriano goes down on three pitches, the last one a check swing strike. You can't be more ineffectual than that.

Cubs are swept. One hundred years and counting.

Now I'm rooting for a Red Sox v. Dodgers series. Can you imagine Manny versus Papelbon with the game on the line? How about Nomar vs. Dice-K? Derek Lowe vs. Youk? Lotta angles. Not to mention Torre versus Francona.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Also, the Cubs are now in a 9-game postseason losing streak.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Dear God. It's another morning, after a week of blessed holiday, and I already accidentally plugged (in?) the toaster instead of the toaster oven (to warm my muffin in order to not drift to existential existent morning).

OK, so I'm a fucking drama queen. A girl should have her fun.

Gronk, I believe.

Edit: I burned the damn muffin. Now installing Chrome.

Huh. This is the scenario they should've had the bar cutoff for.
