is there context for this?
Yeah. I was sitting on my train at a station in Evanston for an hour while we waited for the storm to pass.

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

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.
Well, I had a super crappy start to the week.
When I got in to work this morning, I found that my work laptop had been stolen.
I've got backups, but there's a ton of secure information on it. It's password protected, but the password is not very sophisticated. I just hope the thief is even less sophisticated.

I was without a working disposer for a couple of months. It was bad for me on a bunch of levels.
It's funny, this apartment doesn't have a disposal, which is a little weird. We've adjusted to it, but it was a bit of a trial at first.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I've never had a disposal, and don't really understand the purpose of one.

Oh no Ouise! I'm betting the thief won't bother with any information, but will try to sell the laptop quickly.
I've never had a disposal either. I've only been in a handful of home that have had one.

Most of the apartments I have lived in here have not had garbage disposals, but I grew up with so I miss it.

tommy - lots of red and orange headed your way.
My apartment power went out at 7:55, while I was in mid-cross-stitch. I was going to go dye my hair at 8:00, so that didn't happen! I finally left for work at 9:10, and the power was still out. However, the traffic lights were working not two miles east, and we have power here at work. It feels like the a/c is back up, at least--it's on a separate generator/power setup than the majority of the building, as is the cafeteria, and that was still out when I came in at 9:30. So, I don't know if we'll have lunch here or not. If not, I'll probably head over to the grocery store for some deli chicken salad.

You know, I happily live without a microwave but that disposer is integral to my sense of cleanliness. If I lived somewhere with a compost pile, I would adjust, I'm sure. I'm just glad I don't have to!
