I caught her on a park bench, making out with a *chaos* demon! Have you ever seen a chaos demon? They're all slime and antlers.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Hallo to you all from Mexico. Turns out vacation with nothing to do but lie by the pool or ocean, by yourself? Pretty boring. Sigh. I'm only on the first of six days!

Heh. I discovered that last year in Cancun. Find some good excursions and you'll be much happier.

Right, on Mad Men? "Sinjin"? Who the fuck is that? Is he a genie?

I believe I learned that one from View to a Kill.

Ooh! Scion. SKY-un.

Fortunately neither of those really ever came up outside of novels.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, that just reminded me of my Trixie Belden word -- jalopy.

Scion. SKY-un.

Ooh. That one often trips me up.

I just heard on the news a mispronunciation that drives me crazy, that I hear in some locals around here: Fustrating for Frustrating.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

I think I must have picked up seneschal from fantasy novels. I just looked up how to pronounce it earlier, and have already forgotten.

Brenda, shame you can't be with me! Even more annoying--I'm sitting on the steps (which are pebbled, and OW) because the advertised WiFi doesn't reach my room. Hrmph.

...I do rather prefer this weather to Seattle's current weather, though! I just wish I had someone with me to talk to.

You know, meara, this is why I've never gone on vacation by myself! Exactly this fear. I vote you hang out at the bar until you make friends.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

For those of you following at home, today is the sixth anniversary of Emmett breaking his nose playing baseball.

Which apparently is also billytea's wedding anniversary.

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

I like vacationing by myself. But I gotta keep moving.

I made the Nutella mug cake again, this time with Nutella. It's pretty freaking rewarding for a six minute exercise.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

H'm. I've got Nutella at home, and a mug and a microwave at work. Clearly something needs to be done about this.
