Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh yeah, the packing was very well-done!

Oh, ffs, looks like I'll be on my fourth? Fifth? French press this year. I don't know what changed this year, but I'm breaking them with alarming frequency. Time to go stainless, I guess.

Plaster is dry! Will start sanding! As soon as I finish my coffee.

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

Lexan is also an option. I have a couple of plastic french presses, they're fine. (I just took a look at our Bonjour french presses and the only all stainless steel is $80! I'm sure I didn't pay anything like that much for the one I have)

It's raining!

We had All the Rain here yesterday, plus a couple of small tornadoes.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

It's raining!

No joke, about 75% of the time we go grocery shopping, it rains on us (which is annoying, because getting all the grocery bags wet and hauling them in sucks). So I have this idea that we should hire ourselves out to the state of California, and we'll just drive around the state, getting groceries in every town and thus causing it to rain. We'll be hailed as goddamn heroes.

Did the airport close? Early in the day yesterday, I read a news story that Holy Shit Bad Weather No We Mean BAD Weather was going to slam the southeast, and it mentioned that Hartsfield might close/cancel all the flights.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I can attach the shopvac hose to the exhaust on the sander and run it out the window!

And with the construction noise outside, it's not like the neighbors will be too put out....

Our wings are not tired.

I won't drain the bleeder tank on the boiler myself.

I don't even know what this means. It might be a geographic thing.

Yay! I do know this one!

Glass and other breakable containers more than 4 fluid ounces and any containers over 32 fluid ounces must be cushioned within a sealed, waterproof container such as a can or a plastic bag, and must be packed within a strong and securely sealed outer packaging.

I have some mango chutney I need to mail to people. It sounds like I might have to pack it a bit better.
