Happy things? DragonCon is coming up really soon and that means Dana and I will be stalking people like Amy Acker, Karl Urban, and Manu Bennett.

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

Oy, meara, what a pain!

Today's salad did not freeze, hooray! And I remembered my book. Much more successful lunch than yesterday, although my to do list tells me I was supposed to go out to lunch today (it's on there as a recurring event because I feel bad for not patronizing the local restaurants I like so much).

Go away yellowjacket! The perils of being on my laptop in the backyard. I am working on a WordPress lesson, at least. Maybe I should take a break and look up how to drive away wasps.

Update: interesting suggestion: hang up a crumpled brown paper bag, which wasps mistake for other wasp nests. So ridiculous I think I have to give it a try. Also, I have paper bags handy.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Sweet Christ, that sofa.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What's supposed to happen then?

OK, the paper bag is supposed to fake out the wasps into thinking that another nest has been established, and being quite territorial, they'll avoid the general area on general principle. Because evidently wasps are polite like that.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I need help justifying a hot fudge sundae as big as my head.
