I have no argument for that.
Oh, hey, I randomly have good eggs. What on earth am I going to do with those?
Oh, smacked in the noggin with a 2x4 wrapped in velvet. Yeah, that's what it felt like.

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.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Working at home. Someone convince me to change out of the clothes I wore yesterday and might have slept in.
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.

Awesome! And here's an article by him regarding Hubble's 25th [link]
That he recognized the importance of the archive means a lot to me. It is actually revolutionary in astronomy. Used to be, and still is, data languishes unavailable after the primary investigator observes it and publishes. It's in a cabinet, on a hard drive, undiscoverable to anyone else unless you know to ask.But our mission created a model to put it out there, in a discoverable form to the whole world, as a comprehensive policy. And then we opened up our hosting services to more than Hubble. Mostly space missions, but when resources are provided, we've taken on other data.
I'm glad to be a part of that.

That's a really big thing, sarameg. My inner History of Science student is in awe.
