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

Possibly the solution to drunk facebooking is not drunk b.org posting.

Balderdash. It's the obvious and proven solution.

Just used my eyeglass cleaner to clean my glasses. Two for two on spritzing things onto the correct surfaces this morning.

I've given it a try and I think having my monitor arm's length from me is too damn close. At least with this monitor.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have taken today off. I turned some stale sourdough into delicious French toast. Now my massage therapist has had a cancellation, so I am going for a much-needed massage. Everything's coming up Milhouse!

Ooh, nice!

Huh -- I never thought about it, but my monitor is basically exactly arm's length away.

That's what they advised us to do for optimal ergonomics. Makes me feel like I'm sitting too close to the front in a movie theater.

Have I mentioned that I hate that my department gets abbreviated to SS? I really do.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I was drunk last night but I missed the drunk-and-post.

I'm at the Heartland Cafe because my stomach was crying out for protein. Glad I have off today.

My brain isn't working yet. I saw a headline that said "Granitas are the easiest frozen treat you'll make all summer," but I read "Granitas" as "Genitals."

Freezing those is not actual easy in the summertime.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I'm a dork. Good morning, all.

Ok, so I did ok. My grammar was fine and all I did was deny the existence of an entire continent,

"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty

I've been to plenty of cons. If there aren't any celebrities or panels you want to see, then you should do the math on the cost of the ticket. People-watching can be fun if you've never been to a con, but it's not something I can or want to do all day. Plus huge crowds are not relaxing. If you're not going to any panels or buying any merch, then maybe skip this one and go to the beach.

YMMV.

I've discovered I really love dresses, long dresses with skirts that move. However, winter will be here, and my legs will freeze. Speak to me of plus-sized tights or their equivalent. Panty hose were of the devil and I think I'd rather have bare legs then wrestle with panty-hose-like things again.
