I'm just waiting to see if I pass out. Long story.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Can someone translate a Spanish email my sister got from a customer? Apparently Google Translate is failing her.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I think I left a library book at the hotel in Chicago last week (OH GOD SORRY FLEA) but just realized it today (in my defense, it's been a crazy weird week). So I called them, but the Lost and Found Manager (surely that's not the person's only job?) is only in from 9 to 5, so I'll call back tomorrow.

I have NEVER, in my life, misplaced a library book, much less left it in another city. I am mortified.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

That sounds lovely, Matt.

And that's an oops, Steph, but perhaps the hotel has already mailed it back to the library? That's what I would do if a customer left a library book at my hotel, what with their habit of stamping Library Book and the address on them.

They may have, but I'm going to call tomorrow to be sure.

My garbage can is full. I have enough filled garbage bags of random stuff to fill it up again. I see a vicious circle in my future if I don't find an unsuspecting dumpster to trespass on.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Buzzfeed has an article about "old people" joining Facebook because they want to use Tinder, which requires a Facebook login. The oldest person mentioned in the article is 35.

I can't hear you; speak directly into my tin ear horn!

(Also, I totally want to see Civil War again, so let me know when you want to go [if you want company].)

Oh good god. Now I feel ancient and decrepit? Except...I thought old people were the only ones who use FB anymore anyway? Shouldn't it be that the Youngs are joining FB to use the Tinders?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I didn't think anyone under 35 was on Facebook??

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I was about to say "Hey!" until I remembered I'm not actually under 35 any more.
