Dawn: I thought you were adequate. Giles: And the accolades keep pouring in. I'd best take my leave before my head swells any larger. Good night.

Natter 72: We Were Unprepared for This  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

We've tried Craigslist. I can look at Freecycle.

What I need is magic.

I used Taskrabbit to get someone to haul away some crap for me.

Yeah, my husband is inherently opposed to paying someone.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Or a local friend who's planning to move. What a hassle.

I have: filed for unemployment (again, waited too long so I won't get anything for October), walked the dogs, showered, compiled & distributed the family holiday shopping assignments, and started a low-key argument among my siblings about where to do Christmas.

I don't want to engage in that conversation, I just want someone to tell me where we're going.

Because books.

Teppy, insent.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

All of my stuff was going to the country dump. So I figure I should pay someone for their time and gas.

My husband wants me to haul everything back inside. Hell, no. Not by myself.

Oh, also? The refrigerator repairman is coming at some point between 1 and 5. I shoulda stood in bed.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh hell no. I'd put a "Curb alert" out anywhere that is free to list, and hope for the best. You can bring it back in later, if need be.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

IME, the people of Freecycle will take anything and everything, quickly.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I'm officially calling it. Dana gets a do-over on today.
