I'm trying to switch to iced tea, but that always has to be made and I'm very lazy.
You do well to flee, townspeople! I will pillage your lands and dwellings! I will burn your crops and make merry sport with your more attractive daughters! Ha ha ha! Mark my words! Ooh! Ale! I smell delicious ale!

My grocery stores both carry very good unsweetened iced tea in bottles of about 35-40 ounces. Spendier than tea bags, but good in a pinch.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I'm currently stuck in the middle of a discussion going something like this:
Partner: "I want someone to do x"
My boss: "x is not a library thing. Firm policy says so."
Partner: "but X doesn't cost much, and I want someone to do it and if I say it often enough, maybe the library will do it"
It kind of makes me miss yesterday's first question:
James L. (perhaps Lee?) [common last name]
Born in the 1800’s. Trying to see if we can track down social security number. He’s long dead.

Not quite Smith levels of common, but close.
Of course, SSNs didn't exist until the 1930s.

Oh, Lee. I can only shake my head.
