Sad news, the baby panda died.
On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

Aw.
Current iterations don't adapt to an individual user's swyping tics.Is that a change? Because I old swear it did a better job on my old phone than my current.

Because books.
Aw, Kat. I'm sorry about the kidney stone, but glad it's gone.
Which baby panda was this? Was it at the National Zoo?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Anyone else watching the Emmy arrivals? I'm only here for Cumberbatch.

Yep. The one at the National Zoo. Super sad.
Kidney stones are bad. I hope not to experience that again. But if I do, now I know.
I'm still miffed I have to reschedule my mammogram.

Emmys? I had no idea they were even on. I used to know these things.

Glad the stone is passed, Kat. Hope they don't come back.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Because I old swear it did a better job on my old phone than my current.
From reading the Swype features page, it looks like they *are* integrating the stuff I was saying would make a big difference (predictive typing), but they don't mention learning your gestures, so I'm not going to bargain on it being there.
However, it's not a given that the version on your current phone is more recent than the version on your previous one. It has weird licensing and atypical distribution.
I'm not sure that I'm using a version with half the stuff on that page, because I haven't seen configuration options for all that, but I'll go look.
Okay, people recommended A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints, and it has Shia and Channing as leads? Oh, there is not enough RDJ in the world to make this okay, unless he's in my room (and playing footsie with JGL). It looks precisely like the kind of movie I can easily dismiss as navel-gazingly self indulgent if there isn't enough charisma in the characters with the most screentime. And...yeah.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Faire was fun. We got to see the performers we wanted to see(The Rogues, Wine & Alchemy, Wolgemut and The Pyrates Royale) and one act we didn't know would be there (PInt & Dale). Lots of good music, and a lovely day for being outside.

Very sad about the baby panda.
Not sad but frustrating: sewing class on how to sew knits. Slippery bastards!
