Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Giants are closing in.

Dear god, are you okay? Have they stomped on any houses?

They dare not! As I tell Matilda every day, Mighty Sutro Tower exists primarily to defend San Francisco against giant monster attack.

There's a reason why Godzilla never fucked with San Francisco.

Giants win!

Pot fumes from Haight-Ashbury mellowed him out and he just crawled back into the ocean to nap harmlessly?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

When I lived in Noe Valley (in SF), we had a lovely view of Sutro tower out our living room window. Sometimes, the top of the tower would be covered in fog. Sometimes, the bottom would be. Sometimes this was very pretty.

It's a flawless system.

Well, except for the Giant Octopus.

And the megasharks.

But you'll notice they don't come on land!

Then there was the invasion of the giant bicycle-riding gorillas: [link]

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

Hmmph. I am definitely now hydrated and still experiencing intermittent postural hypotension. Not loving you, doc.

Bicyclists can be very militant here, and generally more of a hazard than Godzilla.

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

I skipped my coffee this morning - at first, I just hadn't gotten around to making any then I decided to make it an experiment, sort of. The headache just started (and it is too late for me to apply coffee if I want to sleep tonight, which I do), so my question is, have I been in withdrawal all day and the headache is a lagging indicator, or does it take more than 24 hours for my system to realize it's caffeineless in which case maybe that morning dose does wake me up?
