Fucking work computer loses its clock when it runs out of power. Which apparently it does when it won't go to sleep because the vpn is connected. Just spent half an hour booting and rebooting it to get the time right so I can actually log in. My home computer doesn't pull this shit, and it is 6 years old, at least. And I'm officially out sick tomorrow! Fucking work computer.
Oh, smacked in the noggin with a 2x4 wrapped in velvet. Yeah, that's what it felt like.

Which is great as an antihistamine but sucks for insomnia when I'm told to just try a Benadryl or any of the "PM" meds that are also just fucking Benadryl. Brilliant for allergies.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
"Oh, I take Tylenol pm." which, aweome for you but thats a Tylenol and a Benedryl . That's nothing but a side effect thang.
One I am often really jealous of....
Dang, sara. Has the computer tried a Tylenol PM? Supposed to help with sleep. I've heard.

I don't even.
I took Loki out on the deck, rejoicing that the predicted snow wasn't.
It just started snowing. Heavily. Goddamn.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Wondermark! [link] In the missives below the comic strip, David Malki ! has set about seeking Better Olympic Narratives, and is now tweeting them. Examples:
The last practitioner of a dying sport
Little white lie on first date has gone too far
Trying to outski her past
And now people are tweeting back:
Dying father made her promise to never enter the olympics; hates dying father.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Have you seen the “feud” that David Malki and Ryan North have been having?

Indeed, it is a thing of beauty and a joy forever.

That was a very unsatisfactory sleeping-in. Partly the cats fault, partly, I just couldn't. Oh well.

not your mom's socks.
dear person to whom I am related, yes, I disagreed with you. Yes, I called you on something. Your next step should not necessarily be sending me an updated living will, "Just in case." because I already have two others from previous disagreements. Love, me.
