Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

A rash guard is a shirt made out of lightweight bathing suit material so you can wear it in the water. Usually has very high SPF protection, like 50-100%. Skin protection for surfing, etc, but in my case just protection from the sun.

Cannot open container containing salad. Ahrg. Oh well, going home soon.

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

Excellent. They totally left without me. But I'll need to keep the washroom exit strategy in mind. I already went out to his farewell lunch. If I keep celebrating it, I might be verging on the obvious.

A rash guard is a swimsuit shirt, brenda. Originally used for surfing as a coverup while you're in the water.

At home I have no proper ergonomics set up. I curl up at the edge of my magical cuddle lounge, and I lean over to the right to use my personal laptop, and the work laptop is on the lounge with me. Completely haphazard.

I come to work, sit at my desk for an hour, and I'm mega stiff when I get up, like I had, you know, exercised or some stupidity. What is with that? How can this be so much more uncomfortable than crosslegged in my living room?

There's some variant of "fuckyeahgaycouples" (that I'm not going to look up right now) that's not x-rated by any means--it's usually young guys submitting pictures of them cuddling their boyfriends and extolling their excellence. It's really sweet. It's on my not-at-work dash though, just in case.

(My boss asked if I had a "significant other" when we were all out for lunch. I felt pointlessly awkward answering that. I'm sure he got all sorts of gay vibes off me in that moment.)

I have a spot on my skirt that looks like grease. This skirt is fresh out of the wash--I haven't spilt anything on it today, so I'm figuring it's something that resisted the detergent.

If so...what are my options for getting rid of it? God, it looks stupid and clumsy and all kinds of "why *there*?)

Because books.

I think baby powder, or maybe corn starch, will take it out, ita.

I have both at home. I will just have to wedge myself under the desk as long as possible.

Okay, this can't be a self pic, can it? I mean, fuck me. She's clearly gorgeous in real life, but those arm's length poses are not supposed to look that amazing.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Structural failure? Or some sort of intergalactic vacuum?

Well, the lighting's nice and she's all made up, so.

I think she's prettiest when she has very little makeup on and her hair's down.

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

Am home from errands. All done. Collapsing now. Oh, no, wait, I can't, I have to go next door and feed the cats and clean out all the litterboxes. Argh.

But shwarma after. Or nap.

Jilli, have you seen the replace-blade-with-banana meme? Because this reminded me of you.

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

Because this reminded me of you.

Is that better or worse than Edward Penishands?
