I just voted in my municipal election ONLINE! Also, I found out during voting that my crazy, crazy, batshit crazy former co-op neighbor was running for School Board. God help us all if she wins.
I had a whole section about civic pride.

I've spent most of my afternoon laboring to understand XML and arrays in ActionScript, and making actual progress, much to my surprise and pleasure. All the work I put in in my C# and Java OOP class seems to have stuck, which is a relief.

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

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I've been trying to work out how to keep my eyes closed because it hurts less. Cost me cereal with Kat, but damn is it boring. So I'm "watching" TV with them mostly closed.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
There's an enormous banner here in Cincy on the side of one of the buildings downtown, of Reds pitcher Bronson Arroyo. The way the picture is taken, with his sandy long-hair sticking out from under his hat, and the way the hat is shading part of his face, and his little almost-smile, that reminds me so much of Emmett, both physically and in terms of attitude, that it spooks me every time I drive by it.

Disappointingly short of the standard set by Rabbit vs. Snake.

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
Holy crap. My hotel room? Like, a hockey-mask wearing psycho is SURE to bust through the patio window and kill me.
TOO. MUCH. NATURE.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Nah, Allyson. If it's all nature outside the only thing you have to worry about busting through the patio window is bigfoot.
