I was just saying to my coworker that I am very slow to transition away from winter tights for the exact reason of leg-shaving.
And Kaylee, what the hell's goin' on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

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

Yay! Most of the US is unnukeable by North Korea.

Despite all the talk of nuclear tests, according to intelligence reports, North Korea still doesn't have the ability to arm a missile with a nuclear warhead.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I also failed at morning today-- I remembered to leave a few minutes early to go get gas at Costco, since my tank is empty and it's cheaper there, but forgot to bring my costco card with me.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Well if we want a war we're going to have to improve those intelligence reports, now aren't we?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have at least once convinced a Costco employee to use their card to let me have the cheap gas. Never tried my wiles on other customers.
The car wash guy took my car this morning like it was a favour. Perhaps that contributed to me wanting to evaluate before tipping. They need to add an "but no cars after 9:30" to their "Open from 7:00-4:00PM" sign. And, if I delay retrieving my car much past noon, their ability to take afternoon clients will be detrimentally impacted. I will at least set a tickler to remind me.

This is the best IT'S FUNNY BECAUSE IT'S TRUE comedy I've seen. Today. This morning.

I'm pretty sure preventing people from doing that is one of the reasons they have a security guard in the station, plus I would have had to talk to people, so I just went and got a little bit of gas at a regular gas station, and sent myself an email to put my costco card in my wallet.

Potentially big stuff happening today (for me, not in general). I'm feeling anxious.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Oh, my god, my fucking employer.
Me: Where is the actual written agreement that I'll keep working until [date]?
Job: Any second now!
Me: Hello?
Job: Here it is! It says you'll keep working until we hire your replacement!
Me: Uh, I'm supposed to work until [date] and the whole fucking point is that I will train my replacement?
Job: Okay, we'll say that you'll keep working until your replacement has been "sufficiently trained"?
Me: ORLY? And who will be making that judgment call?
I just don't understand the point of agreeing that I will work until mid-August, but then weaseling as much as possible to avoid actually committing to that.

I'm having lunch with Jen K. today (Yay!)
I've been looking out the window and thinking, "Hmmm, we really ought to take advantage of this day. I wonder where we could eat al fresco. Maybe just get some great takeaway and go to the park?"
And she just msged me saying, "Let's have a picnic!"
So it shall be.
