Also, if anyone wants any washi tape, the Recollections brand is apparently 19 cents a roll at Michael's today, though most stores don't have it marked.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Ugh. ltc has been cranky today. So, when TCG got home I told him that she was in a bad mood. And he jokingly said, "what do you want me to do about it?" Cue me bursting into tears.

I'm very good at breaking things this week. Bye, V&A bone china mug & and my second cuppa of the morning.

I have not had one of those "Oh, hey, I'm not really dead, I'm so happy to see you" dreams in a couple of years. I love waking up annoyed at the universe.

I still have those kinds of dreams about my mom. So discombobulating.
I know there are folks here who have done Lasik. I'm getting evaluated and so far the recommendation is mono vision with them just fixing one eye for near vision. I'm not sure what questions to ask.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I had a dream the other night about buying and fixing up an old shotgun-style house, and my mom was there, and I told one of my friends, "Don't tell my mom I bought this house without even looking at it."
Odd thing I've noticed, when I dream about people who have passed, they never look at me or speak to me. Even if I'm talking to them and am not aware in the dream that they're dead.

I am just at the end of my rope dealing with family. It's been a long long month already and I'm stressed as shit and have no good refuge. I headed out to chill for a bit and now find that one of them locked the screen porch and the other one lost the keys.
I just want to throw a screaming fit. There are so many real issues to be dealt with but this one just has me on the ropestreet. I'm sure election stress is playing into this but man I am close to losing it.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Yeah, that sucks, brenda.
Take a deep cleansing breathe before you go back in to face the family.
Here's some good election news, and this is consistent with what I felt about the debates.
And that is - nerd power. HRC crushed Trump in the debates because she had a plan, did the prep and executed perfectly.
And the Dem ground game/GOTV has been strong, focused and smart. They targeted lots of Puerto Rican voters who've emigrated in large numbers to Central Florida. They're doing an incredible job of turning out the hispanic vote which has always been elusive for the Dems.
Early voting in Nevada is way ahead of what its been in the past and I think it's going to be insurmountable for Trump there. And Florida is also looking way better in that regard.
Now, I personally will never take a damn thing for granted about Florida -- not since the 2000 election. I still have PTSD and I wouldn't count on Florida for shit. But if they get Florida it's all over.
And Nate Silver keeps talking about PA and MI as if they're in play for Trump and I really really don't think that's accurate. Certainly not when I dig down into the numbers.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
2000 scarred me badly. I was insanely nervous about 2012, and remember watching with my BFF. The news called it, and I was genuinely astonished that it was over that early.
Who was the Fox guy who blew a gasket of disbelief? That was fun to watch.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
It was Karl Rove who blew his lid over 2012, wasn't it? He was so certain Romney would win he couldn't believe the results.
And Nate Silver keeps talking about PA and MI as if they're in play for Trump and I really really don't think that's accurate.
Agreed. If she gets PA and MI she's won, she doesn't even need FL or NV, but it would be glorious - I want her to win in a landslide, blow Trump totally out of the water.
