At 5:12 today I ordered a piece of my Halloween costume (yes, I intend to venture from my home). I just got email saying it shipped. I wonder how they're defining "shipped"?
One of you is gonna fall and die, and I'm not cleaning it up!

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

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Sitting in the loading dock with a shipping label on it?

I need to go to Walgreens tomorrow to buy razors and Drano. And as I was making that list, I realized I ought to buy something else so as not to make the clerk consider me a suicide risk. Light bulbs! All the light bulbs in the overhead fixture in the bathroom blew the other day...
Razors, Drano, and light bulbs -- man, my list is still looking pretty lethal.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I was in line the other night behind a woman buying pregnancy tests and Milano cookies. I wondered if she was planning on consoling herself or celebrating.

Separate email. Well, whatever it is, I hope it bodes well for early shipment.

Where I come from, the usual ritual is a pregnancy test, a half-gallon of ice cream, and a fifth of whiskey.

What piece of your costume did you buy? The headware?
My cat in the hat hat makes me happy. It freaks Noah out, but oh well. Little man had so much fun today that he had no nap. OOPS. Bad mommy! No biscuit!
