I'm in recovery, my eyes are having a little trouble focussing. Nothing a nice nap won't fix.
These girls have the most beautiful dresses. And so do I -- how about that?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I really hate teaching in the summer without air conditioning. It's at least 85 degrees in these classrooms. And in one of them, the handles on almost all of the windows are broken, so they won't open.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Where the fuck are you? I had an entire meeting where an executive (that I was sent in to meet because we're tight like that) questioned every axiom of one of our major projects.
And you have nothing to distract me? WHAT USE ARE YOU?

Sarameg, I'm sorry about the eye issues, but I'm glad you've met new family you like.
Thanks for checking in Theodosia. I hope recovery goes well.
Sorry about the meeting stuff, ita.
I can't really taste an improvement in wine north of $50. The difference between $12 and $50's pretty noticeable to me, though. But it doesn't bother me so much that I refrain from drinking the $12 wine. Or the $5 wine, in some instances. There's expensive, amazing wine, with layers and different flavors that change at different points in the drinking process. And then there's mono-note, but perfectly tasty, bubbly rose that I can get a case of and suck down while scrolling through Tumblr. It's all good.
To sum up--mmmmmmm, wine.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
IT looked at my computer and found that the screws holding in my hard drive were missing. So it was unseating itself if I jostled the computer just right. HOW DOES THAT HAPPEN? (Yes, I now have "screws fall out all the time, the world is an imperfect place" in my brain).
I have new screws and I can get a new work laptop in 11 months, unless this one acts up. How can I make it act up?

Don't put the screws in.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Just heard from the vet that my lovely cat, Zorro, who always comes when called, never holds a grudge and sleeps on my head every night is in kidney failure. I'm at work and it;s payroll day, so I have to concentrate all day. But all I want to do is go home and hug him.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Oh, Scrappy. Billions of hugs to you and head-skritches to Zorro.
