Curtain-sewing progress: Three long hems done! One more long hem, and then four short ones, and I'll have the first pair of curtains done. I'm kind of slacking on the ironing part for the long hems, but I need to actually do it for the short ones. I'm not so good at that part. I always end up burning my fingers when I try to iron the folds for folding in an edge twice.
Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

Considering you didn't leave my place until after midnight...
Yeah, I'll be napping this afternoon. I will have to remember that I need to get to bed as early as I can this week, because the dogs are unforgiving.

Health~ma to your cousin, Matt.
Goodness, I'm sleepy. Aside from a walk and some housework I've been pretty lazy. Not sure where the tired is coming from.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Well, huh. I did a quick google of a misspelling in one of the okcenemies tumblr posts, and it is for real. I mean, the profile exists. If the guy who created the profile is assing around, well....well, I kind of hope so, actually. See what I mean?.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
That is definitely the correct response to that profile, Hil.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Huh. I know this sounds judgey, but if that profile is 100% honest, I'd suspect a head injury, mostly for the pervasive spelling errors and lack of filter.

I'm trying to work out how that guy is supposed to have earned a university degree with spelling that's as bad as any I've ever seen from an adult. If he did, then he has resources to mitigate the bad spelling, right? Well, why wouldn't you think a dating site profile is a good place to use them? It's not very easy for a reader to pretend that didn't just happen, and first impressions you can control are key.
