I went to the vintage carnival on Governors Island. It was pretty cool -- all these old French carnival rides that had been restored. I'm not sure of the exact dates for them, but I'd guess ranging from about 1880 to maybe 1955, with most of the stuff pre-1920. There were also carnival games, of similar vintage.
Oh, smacked in the noggin with a 2x4 wrapped in velvet. Yeah, that's what it felt like.

3 loads of laundry DONE and I wrestled the cover on the boxspring back on. Did a much better job this time. No bruising!

I just made zucchini refrigerator pickles...
As a kid, though, we put it through the meat grinder and froze it for zucchini bread later. I also just remembered an incredible zucchini bread that I used to make that was on the Kind Arthur flour bag- it was wheat and had raisins and it was superb!

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
Just listened to my neighbors guests say "let's have a party when you guys close!" which made my paranoid brain think that they are buying the property and will be the ones to evict me if I don't find a new place soon (they frequently have commented on how cute my apartment is and what they could do with it). But that seems convoluted to have our mutual landlady in on such a deception.
More like they found a new place to move into, which makes me excited that maybe they'll be gone before I am.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
ISTG, when I got the email from tumblr saying (to my fanart tumblr) "fuck-her-throat is now following you. Whee!" I thought I was part of some follow-spamming or something.
But, lo and behold, they hearted the last picture I posted, so the tumblr full of women gagging on it.
Those pictures are just...uncomfy as all hell. Speaking of sex & pictures, I also stumbled across a list of celebrity "leaked" sex tapes, and I had no idea that Sam Jones was in that number. Or what he was packing in his pants. Whoa..

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I'm in my office and down the hall (like 5 or so doors down on the opposite side), one of my colleagues is yelling at another person in the office with the door closed. Both of our doors are closed, so it stopped me in my tracks to hear loud yelling. There is another person in the office with him.
I have no idea if they know I am here or not, but I'm going to run for my car if something jumps off.
