this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I think it is LENS FLAIR, peasant.

The flare is the flair?

Fandom too full of insulting neurotypical asswipes, so I'm on a break from it, despite having enjoyed the eps I watched.

Ugh, really? I'm glad I didn't poke around the fandom, then. Because I started out as lukewarm towards it and have ended up loving the shit out of it. LOVE.

And then there's Arrow, which is totally the Funyuns of TV, but I adore it beyond reason. There was a throwaway reference to Kate Spencer!

Well, the alternator tested fine. Since they couldn't get it to reproduce the symptoms, I'm quitting while I'm ahead and it only is costing me $51. They're going to ask around to see if anyone wants it. Otherwise, I'll use it for a trade-in.

Might see about getting the dealer to bring out a car for a test drive between meetings tomorrow.

I am that done. Even moreso since oh, btw the timing chain needs adjusting.

And now I'm going swimming.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I'm glad everyone's okay, Sox. Take care of youse!

Good finance vibes to you, sarameg, and to you as well, Steph.

xkcd did GeoGuessr today:

Seriously, is xkcd one of us?

So lunch today began as salami and almonds and a bit of cucumber salad, but when it was clear that wasn't enough I followed it up with spinach salad with fennel, mushrooms, and chicken. I figure I'm not trying to lose weight so I really should eat when I'm hungry, right? I had two breakfasts too, so I guess today I'm a hobbit, a low-carb hobbit.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Starting to feel like May, just in time for it to be June. Weather. :shrugs:

Our wings are not tired

I'm waiting to hear back from one of my big clients regarding the initial estimate for the huge annual project I do with them. This is always a little nerve wracking and one of the only places where I'm not good at being super patient. This really does set my budget for about half of my work year, and it's always a lot of prep to get things ready to submit, and then I just want an answer.
