Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Hooray for heat that works!

Looks like I am having a French-Press-at-Sunrise kind of day.

I am waiting outside a sample sale of athletic clothing, on the bidding of my former roommate. But then I think I will go to urgent care and hope to get a diagnosis/script for pinkeye. Then I have a DIFFERENT doctors appointment (sleep doc intake). When all I want to do is be at home in bed.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

My plans for today include cleaning out the garage and getting a pedicure. I just haven't decided on the order yet.

The status is NOT quo.

I am starting my day at the tire store getting a flat fixed, but they are doing it for free since we are regular customers, so that's pretty great.

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

I made a serious tactical error. I need more coffee, but in an effort to start doing things, I started the dishwasher, with the French Press inside.

Oh Lee. That is a problem.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I sanded down my bathroom walls and washed them and started taping up plastic, but then I left and am waiting for pre-haircut Shake Shack. Because we have that now!

Woe. This is why I have so many coffee making devices.

Not really, but it sounds like a good excuse.

I can't do the whole song, but I do go around singing "Three French Press, two Aeropress, and a stove-top espresso maker" sometimes. Sad to say, that does not exhaust my collection. Really sad to say, I only make coffee on the weekends.

The status is NOT quo.

I made the tactical error of not eating or drinking anything caffeinated before going to the tire place. I am regretting this decision.
