Oh!!!! Ha. Thanks, Maria!
I'm guest bartending tonight at a place with very good beer. I'm quite looking forward to it.
Wash: Psychic, though? That sounds like something out of science fiction. Zoe: We live in a space ship, dear. Wash: So?

That seems much more useful.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Much more useful for me, certainly.

I hear tell fancy-schmancy hotels will send up a lot of things without charge, including utensils, that is if you don't mind tipping the deliverer.
Sox, I read that whole thread and added my mite of opinion at the end. Sounds like the Worldcon is going to cancel the showing entirely, which I think is a shame, because it's clearly what they call a Teachable Moment.

An elementary school clerk talked down a school shooter. Ms. Tuff is a hero.
The school is in my county, so I've had wall-to-wall coverage. There's now a debate about whether the schools need more resource operators, but this event indicates that schools need more clerk/bookkeepers.

DD has suddenly started being more sociable, chatty, amiable, wearing work shirts, offering to do other peoples tasks, and being communicative. Found out yesterday evening that she's on the ED's shit list (finally) so it looks like this a desperate attempt to mend fences and put on a good face.
Works for me, as I'm her newest direct coworker with plans for the holidays coming up.
Now to backread.
