This is not funny. This... this is a morality tale about the evils of sake.

My coverage allows for me to have a massage every two months. I love them. I had one last week, and I'd have one tonight if I could. Really, I need to start doing yoga again.

I never had to do a science fair project. Those things were always optional.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I only did one science fair, in seventh grade. I grew philodendrons, watering them with different things - the control group with water, sugar water, lemon water and a fourth thing I can't recall. There was not much of a conclusion to draw. My elementary school never had one (or a spelling bee), and neither did my high school. Never built a volcano, either, though my brother did.

Can I go for another massage already? It's only been two months.

Sure, go right ahead.

Way to go on installing the locks, Liese. You just mentioned thinking about them, like, yesterday, didn't you? So efficient.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My coverage allows for me to have a massage every two months.

I'm going to rationalize with the idea that that means it must be the medically optimal timing.

I'm super stoked that today's groupon are pilates classes. Including privates.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

My school didn't have science fairs. They believed that academic competition encouraged elitism. (They did not have the same opinion of athletic competition.)

Thank god we don't have that communist Canadian style healthcare.

I'm pretty sure I only had those two science fairs, in seventh and eighth grades.

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

I used to have a massage a month. It was marvellous. I think the last one was very useful, but I want to wait and see if I have another procedure on my neck before I schedule my next one.

Never done a science fair project. Not part of the Jamaican/UK educational system.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Zenkitty works for IEEE! That's cool!

I know! I feel like I get extra geek points just for knowing her!

IEEE, as in Spectrum magazine? Cool!!!

Also, yesterday's Groupon was 6 yoga classes for $30, and you can pick any class from 4 locations. I jumped on it in lieu of a 7-week Feldenkreis class for $105 (not a Groupon; just a bodywork class option I was considering, but since the yoga is so much cheaper, I went with that for now).

Today's Groupon is for amazing Belgian waffles. I should get it, too, but I'm trying to not be so spendy.
