I'm pretty sure I did just short of a literal highfive with the guy at the pool with a Hubble tattoo. Who was there again tonight. He has a tiger on the other shoulder. Just interesting choice of tattoos.
Nice acronym, Mom!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I guess I could have gone up to him and said "Who was your first?" But the last time I struck up geeky T-shirt conversation with a guy I was sorely disappointed.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."
Remember that episode of Friends where Phoebe's smoke detector kept beeping, and she couldn't make it stop?
And remember how our house has ridiculously high ceilings and we don't have a big ladder?
This explains why my husband was balancing a ladder on two bar chairs.

I would have just thrown things at it until it broke.
But I've been there. At 2 am. Luckily, I could reach it with the ladder I had. Or rather, them. It was 2 am, I wasn't going to try to figure out which of the 3 it was, so I just yanked all of them down to deal with in the morning. At 2 am.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
ugh, not only am I home sick, but I had to give up my Lords of Acid ticket because there's no way I could do that. Grrr. I had better be well by this weekend.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
This is the kind of scenario which has let to my standing on a folding chair in high heels.

At 2 am? Kinky.

Not at 2am.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
These are bad plans, people! Invest in ladders that reach your ceilings!
(Says the woman covered in fiberglass insulation and coughing because she just was crawling around in her attic trying to run a cable.) On reflection? Should really have put those wall jacks on the interior rather than the exterior wall, where the roofline comes down all small. So far, fail. But will try again, running the fishing line down in the other direction, although I am unclear on whether or not I'll need to drill to achieve that and if so, where.

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
