I think I'm giving some of you the idea that you have to use your cell phone for everything. You don't. Take your current home phone, remove the RJ-11 jack from the wall, and plug it in to the back of the adapter. You're still using the same house phone as before, but now you have options for when you're not at home. You will need good internet speeds for good call quality, but that's less and less of a problem these days. For the last four or five years I couldn't tell the difference between my home Vonage line and a landline from the phone company.

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

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
to which she replied there's no reason to assume she'd be the central character.
ooo, perspective. Something many people never develop, much less at such a young age.
Maria, you may have talked me into it.

So, Annabel's latest favorite thing is to suspect that in an alternate universe, she and her friends are characters in a TV show.
Has she been watching Community?

Matilda has been watching it lately, so I think it would be safe for her. And, of course, it is super fannish and has alternate timeline stories.
Anyway, I admire her early commitment to fandom.
How are your bruises and stitches?

Zen, do your independent research and let me know. Profile addy good.
Good to see you, Susan! I hope you're healing well.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I'm still sitting here at my desk, working. I feel like I'm constantly behind and I'm never going to catch up. I need to be active again. I desperately need to get back to the gym. This is untenable
I feel this, too. I really thought that working from home would make it *easier* to get to the gym than when I worked in an office, because I can (in theory) go anytime. But instead, I Just. Keep. Working. and then it's too late/I'm too hungry/whatever.

Okay! I have eaten lemon pepper tilapia with veg and a light fettucine pasta. I have ingredients to match a batch of chicken noodle soup tomorrow and a batch of red beans and rice on Sunday.
I'm going to toss some laundry in the wash and NOT do my taxes tonight, because not after this week. Good lord, no. Only drinking is happening tonight.

We had to come home early from a shindig (with pi pie, damn it), because I am having the IBS flare from hell. I've taken all the meds I can take (and am counting the minutes until I can take more) and have a hot beanbag microwave thingie on my belly. At least I have last night's Archer to watch.

Exactly. Trying to get me out of the house is a struggle. I *had* to leave for work before. Now I don't. And it's not good for me.
