Very convincing. Makes me completely want to put myself under government control. Please take me to where you can make me unconscious and naked.

Glad to hear about text check-ins, Kat.

I would probably kill a black widow in the garage, but I would feel bad about it. If I have any (and I probably do) they politely stay out of sight, so I can pretend they aren't there.

Mmm, coffee.

I leave all the beneficial jillifonts and relocate the poisonous or unsettlingly large ones. I have taught countless girls the jar trick for moving bugs.

Well, I'm up and puttering around. I've made breakfast and coffee. It's pretty cold outside, but I guess I could go to Target? I only have one coffee filter left, and they might have cauliflower.

I am up and the dogs have been out and fed and now I get to edit. Joy. They want this document back by noon, and I have many pages of dreadfully dull material to wade through.

Wish me easily-spotted typos.

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

Timelies all!

Other than the weekly grocery shopping trip, nothing much planned for today.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I can't decide if I hope my mother wants to go shopping this afternoon or not. On the plus side, there are a couple of things I want to look for. On the minus side, I'd rather not wear my clean jeans before vacation! And I'm not sure I can go to even Christmas Tree Shop in inside pants.

I swear to god, if I ever kill my husband, it will be because he suggested, AGAIN, that I buy a Mac for my computer. We've been married fifteen years. We've had this fight 400 times. The software I need to run does not run on a Mac. Yes, I know I can install Windows on a Mac and dual boot. But I can buy a functional PC laptop for half what the Mac would cost, goddamnit, and I PREFER it.

(Anybody thinking of recommending a Mac to me in the next post, think afuckinggain.)

Ha ha, nope. I have one PC desktop for those reasons, and the rest of my devices and laptops are all Android/Chrome now.

Mixed marriages can be like that, flea.

Mixed platform marriages have challenges, they never really go away.

One round of dishes done, laundry gathered up but not sorted. I think I will watch an old Nova and fold the clean laundry from last week that hasn't been put away yet...

I might be able to manage no grocery shop this week. I've got produce coming on Tuesday night/Wednesday morning, and my meat pick up on Thursday (I don't think I've eaten half of last month's, yet! I need to get on that), and I think I have enough cheese still in the fridge to get through the week. If I actually run out of anything I can make emergency groceries after work.

The point of all this cogitation is to justify not getting dressed. Fleece pajamas, so comfortable.
