Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

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

That's in a week?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah.

And I realize saying "float" right after "raspberry lime rickey" perhaps did not sufficiently indicate that I meant the sensory-deprivation thing! Which I can do in Somerville.

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

My staycation activities consisted of napping, watching tv, and reading. But that's what I wanted to do, so I'm not complaining. Sometime I ought to take a staycation that involves doing some fun stuff.

Since that's pretty much all I do in my non-work regular time, I want to do some other stuff as well!

Oh, ha, I thought you meant like a root beer float!

Three day trips sounds about right to me.

So, I have been at work for 6 hours (upon returning from a 6-day vacation) and I am already SO OVER IT.

That sounds awesome. My staycations usually end up filled with tasks that I need to get done... and cleaning.

Your vacation looked great, flea!

The current response in my head to workplace shenanigans is "You are the worst, Burr."

That sounds really nice Jesse! I'm still trying to figure out both how to get into a routine now that I'm not traveling, and also how to not get into a rut.

Other Q I'm worried I know the answer to: why does my skin kinda feel like it's on fire? Since yesterday? It felt a bit like I was sunburnt, yesterday (mostly neck/shoulders/arms) but I hadn't been in the sun on Saturday. I chalked it up to maybe I was or maybe it was Sunday's heat. But today I still feel on my neck and some of my scalp and arms a burning sensation. I don't seem to have a rash (as far as I can tell in the mirror? But I'm always kind of pink). What is this fresh hell? Am I allergic to something new? Would that even last for two days, while on Zyrtec?

If he is, it's undiagnosed. My brother is, so he may have gotten it from Dad.

Sounds pretty likely, then.
