They look exactly the same!
They really do!
Having a harder time being productive today, but plugging away. Time for tea now, though.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, they both look great.

Things I attempted: buy new bras, buy birdseed, buy new shoes, buy summer tops.
Things that were successful: none of those. And fuck stores that force you to use the new chip in the cards but no alternative if it doesn't work. Which it doesn't, but just at these stores, so it is the reader, not the card.
I am possibly in an ever fouler mood than I was this morning.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Cool! I'm in if I can be home by 8pm for hockey.
I sent you a text but I have two numbers for you and I just chose one. There's a 3pm at the New 400, unless you'd prefer a different theater.

You can report them to your bank (or whatever) - if they take Visa (or whatever) they are supposed to take any Visa card, not just the chipped cards.
Lee and I ran into that on the ferry to the Faroes. PITA

Oh, they still have the swiper. It just won't let you swipe if you also have a chip. Or at least the cashier doesn't know how to override. And it's freaking Walmart, btw (only place I can get the big bags of birdseed right now.) Target lets me do either. Walmart can't read my damned card.

I did not get a text. Is that at 6746 N Sheridan? I... think I have enough time to jump in the shower and put on outside clothes and get there?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Another Balticon done. Next year it moves back to downtown Baltimore, at the Inner Harbor.

I am playing passive-aggressive phone/text tag with my roommate. Half the time she spends the night at my daughter's, she calls me the next morning to provide taxi service. And the first call is at 7:30am--on a Sunday. My day to sleep in. I ignored 3 phone calls, 1 voicemail message and 1 text before I responded to the last text around 12:30. It doesn't bother me if she arranges a pick up the day before, but to call me and expect me to rescue her from utter boredom and lack of sleep--well, her failure to plan does not constitute an emergency on my part.
