I wanna die in bed surrounded by fat grandchildren, but guess that's off the menu.

They haven't delivered it yet, dammit.

Those are some fancy shirts!

Probably won't get it until tomorrow. If ever. Probably got stolen by sneaky shirt goblins.

I should be asleep, but the painting rush fucked me up. But did allow for me to chase down a squirrel: holy fucking shit, my workplace has raised $19k and counting for a member of housekeeping staff whose contract doesn't have really any leave benefits outside basic sick. He'll probably be out 4 months, this is huge. There's also an underground movement to get him hired main contract under facilities if his current company won't maintain his employment after his leave ends.

Which should be the plan for all staff, from tenured to housekeeping,but babysteps.

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

Ugh Dana, sorry to hear that

Strength to you and yours, Strip

And goodnight all. I'm spent

Tonight I went to K-Mart to buy some sneakers and a scrub brush, and the woman in front of me at the checkout counter bought $104 worth of cat food. I didn't even know cat food came in 40 lb. bags!

Our wings are not tired.

Oh, Dana. I am sorry.

Um, that is a lot of cat food. I actually bought some a couple days ago. The next door neighbor moved away and I think abandoned their 2 outdoor cats. Grandson said he was taking them, but I haven't seen him. I moved their bowls from the front of the house to the side between our houses to transition them to my house if needed. They have been eating the food, but haven't come to say hi yet. We'll see what happens.

Off to get 2 crowns (or start the process). Whee. Goodbye money. I so liked having you.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Boo, Steph.

I'm sorry, Strix. That sounds kind of nightmarish, frankly.

I'm glad that Wimbledon offers live video from their site, but I wish they showed more actual tennis.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I love this group of adoptable kittens from Vancouver. And the write-up on them is almost as cute as the kittens.

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

Happy Day, Canada!
