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!

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

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

Good luck, Gud!

Not saying you should, but I think that is where the savings is to make it on $15,000 a year

My BFF lives on much less. Her car is paid for, and she lives in a house her mother owns so she doesn't have rent/mortgage (but she pays in other ways, being basically a slave to her mother's whims at this point), and her kid's medical expenses are covered under TennCare. Even so, I don't know how the hell she does it.

shaved my legs

Reading this I remembered a dream last night in which I pulled up my skirt to show someone how I had no hair on my legs even though I haven't shaved in years! And this is in fact true, and frankly curious, because I used to have a normal amount of hair on my legs. And my arms. There's no hair at all on my arms anymore, and like five hairs on my legs. Why is that? Not that I mind.

put her water bottle on the counter like I've told her

blah blah blah water bottle blah blah blah
