I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

Please tell me the poo emoji was used.

Dammit, why is it that the people who pay the most for eBay items are the slowest to pay for them?

I called USPS last week about a package. They said they'd open an investigation. I did not receive a call. I still have no package. The USPS hold music is so bad that it's like a parody of hold music.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

"which would you prefer to eat, a square brownie or a fecal-shaped brownie?" Best fourth grade science project EVER!

That is excellent.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Bleah. Woke up at 4:30 this morning, possibly by my snoring.(Gary says I woke him up with my snoring. I don't normally snore.) Why yes, I am fighting a cold.

Feel better, Sheryl.

ltc's doctor's appointment lasted forever today because she wouldn't give up a urine sample. Between that and trying to keep her still for an ultrasound, I'm exhausted.

You'd think there'd be a way to squish them a little to encourage the process. I don't know why I'm comparing a baby to an orange.

We tried everything. Wasn't happening.

Pro tip: if your wife mows the lawn with the janky old reel mower that you love so much you refuse to get a normal lawn mower (even though you can't mow any more because of your rheumatoid arthritis, so it's past time to get a mower that the actual person mowing finds easy to use), and does 2 loads of laundry, and washes the dishes, AND works a full day, AND feels like she's getting a cold -- you don't ask *if* she wants you to make dinner. You ask what she'd like you to make for dinner or go pick up some goddamn shawarma.

My husband is alive right now only because he's cute.
