SMG returning to TV. I'm not sure if I saw that linked to here already.
My onerous task for today was making a fool of myself in front of upper management. ::sigh:: Now off to long meeting.
I bought a San Pellegrino Limonata. I hope I don't hate it.
Why couldn't you be dealing drugs like normal people?

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

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
So it's in-universe established bullshit.
Okay, so, saying you can't con an honest man makes cons feel better about themselves.

Bills paid and lunch eaten
sometimes it is easier to cut the grocery bills than you think. for me -- by what I was tossing, I figured out that I was buying way to much food

Which is why I hope the Leverage team never says it (and I've told John as much). I respect them more for it.

Art Crawl!!!
I've really cut down on bill paying as an onerous task by setting up autopay through my bank. The only thing I really have to think about is my rent. So much better.

When we were living on a lot less than we are now, a coworker was telling me about her budget problems but noted brightly that they stopped drinking wine except on the weekends are were saving so much! I could only wonder exactly how much wine they had been drinking during the week (we basically didn't drink because it was too expensive at that point. Also I think I was nursing, and I'm a ridiculous lightweight.)

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Onerosity (slightly late): made telephone calls.

My onerous tasks are all work related. One down, but the next will take me until tomorrow to finish. Onerous Task Day drags on.

{{{{amyth}}}} I'm so sorry things are so shitty & hard & stressful lately. Lean on us as much as you need. (And I'm jealous of you & smonster getting to hang out tonight!)
My onerous task of the day was to send off my passport to get it renewed. Which, if I had thought to do it a month ago, might have meant we could still take our honeymoon in March as planned, but now I won't get it back in time to apply for the Brazilian tourist visa, so we're postponing the honeymoon until the summer. Which is like six months away! By the time we actually take our honeymoon, we will have been married for almost a year already. Ah well.

Bill paying isn't exactly onerous, but every now and then they get beyond me. So I have to catch up, which is onerous
