This is the best IT'S FUNNY BECAUSE IT'S TRUE comedy I've seen. Today. This morning.
Saffron: You just had a better hand of cards this time. Mal: It ain't a hand of cards. It's called a life.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
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.
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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Good luck, Gud!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Good luck, Gud!

Fingers crossed, Gud. I hate waiting for stuff like that.
