Dear co-worker, leaving everything to the last minute as standard operating procedure will eventually bite you on the ass when you need more than a minute to get everything done. Exhibit A: Today's profanity-filled mad scramble to get taxes turned in in the midst of a work deadline crunch when you've taken a couple of days off in the past week and could have devoted an hour or two out of either to finishing up your return.
Stop that right now! I can hear the smacking!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I have no argument for that.
Oh, hey, I randomly have good eggs. What on earth am I going to do with those?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Heading to Toronto tomorrow for FilKOntario. It's the 25th anniversary con, so it's a day longer.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Half an hour to the nearest grocery, and that's an upgrade from the forty-five minutes it was where we lived last. However, we do have an honest-to-goodness general store where you can buy staples and Schwans ice cream and tire chains and fishing bait and WD-40 and whatnot.
We just started that Vox anti-detox diet again that Pix recommended sometime back. So far so yum, although I am now impatiently waiting for the SO to get home from coffee and baseball so I can have the dinner.
Also, I would like to note here, amongst my peeeeple, how irrationally irritated I am that TurboTax uses the incorrect "Alright" in its attempt at colloquial phrasing.

I work from home every day. This sounds like every day to me.

It's a fine line between idiomatic and incorrect, tax preparation software walks it at great peril.

Aw, one of my coworkers is on NOVA. Mario Livio, one of my favorite work science-explainers. And not just for his accent. He's got a fascinating bio and is a really engaging speaker. [link] I never miss one of his talks.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OMG, I can't believe that's finally on! I was trying to raise money for that show 2+ years ago.

Stanley Cup Playoffs are more stressful when you can't drink.
Edit: And I'm officially not looking at the score anymore. Nope.
