Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

Mezzo-cyclone for the mezzo-soprano?

IANUS is terrible. But I also do not understand people who can only poop at home. I mean, don't you just need to poop, sometimes??

It was a beautiful day here, but I'm afraid if we pull the nice patio furniture out, it'll start raining immediately and we will wish it was inside again (where the TV is!)

A friend of a friend when I lived in DC was like that. If we were out somewhere, he'd take the metro home, use the bathroom there, and then call to find out where we were so he could meet us again.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

My first full-time job after college while sharing a duplex with my smelly male younger cousin (whom I love dearly), I came up with a life motto: whenever you can, poop somewhere other than your home. I stand by it. Keep the stink out, do your business elsewhere.

It doesn't always hold as a good idea, maybe not when your elsewhere is only other people's homes.

Lightning!

Scheduled all my anxiety causing bills to be paid for the next two months. Done and done.

And there's thunder.

Also, turning back on the heat. My feet are hurting at 62 when it's colder than that outside.

Are any of the buffistas able to read Czech?

omg shrift, those dino plantars are adorable.

I have skimmed because I was doing freelance work after work this week. Which is hella boring, but every hour is a bit more against the new kitchen.

My Dad had two strokes last summer, and we only found out weeks later. Sometimes shit like that just happens and you can't even tell until later.

TNG is failing. She's having a lot of trouble getting around or standing up and I don't know how long I should give her... waaaah. She's the sweetest dog and this sucks.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Our older cat is failing too. It's just hard, Consuela.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I'm sorry, Consuela and Burrell, about your pets who are not doing well. It's just so tough.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Ah, poor TNG and oldest cat. I'm sorry, humans of theirs.
