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

Oh, crap. I discovered to my horror a zero balance at my CU - overdrawn! Looks like I entered an incorrect date on a couple bill payments through my CU and they were paid a week before I intended them to be. Payments were covered through my savings account, so it's not a totally dire situation, but damn I feel stupid. And it's a week until payday!

This is the danger in switching accounts! I've gotten all complacent about my bills being paid on schedule without my active intervention. Well, that doesn't work, Self, if you screw up the schedule.

The four-episode British miniseries from a few years ago is pretty nice.

The one with, um, Toby Stephens? I liked that one too. I find I mostly like parts of every version. I even liked Charlotte Rampling in the William Hurt version.

Mmmm...Cumberbatch. I was talking a coworker who's been transferred to a different location today. It took a while to convince her to watch Sherlock, but she's been thoroughly Cumberbatched now.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Who's that being asked?

Sorry, that was you.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Yeah, the one with Toby Stephens. Rrowr.

I don't have my bills on autopay because my payday migrates through dates, though it's always every other Wednesday.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

I left work today exactly at sunset, and so caught all the pine trees on the rise to the east of our office glowing against a deep blue sky while the forest around me was dark except for the topmost tree branches. It was like walking into a Maxfield Parrish painting!

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

Seriously, why??

I didn't ask

Why is David Cassidy on my Tv?

This is mostly a rhetorical question; he is on last night's Colbert. Kind of random, but I think that's the point.

ita,

FWIW, I have been through car transactions recently (and helped friends go through them) and we all did all the negotiating via email through the dealership.

That was a very satisfying experience.
