Oh- Damp makes sense!!

Ha! I changed my answer from damp to prevention, and maybe one other answer and my score went up!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I dropped my camera in the sand TWICE today, and now it will turn on but cannot focus, I assume because there's sand all up in the lens-extending mechanism. Now, this is a point-and-shoot that's at least 6 years old, and possibly 7, so I'm not super fussed. Except it is inconvenient, because I'd like to keep taking pictures of shenanigans this week. But other people have cameras, and/or there's a Wal-Mart just across the bridge on the mainland if I really can't survive without a camera.

But I'm the kind of person who really needs to do a lot of research before I replace my camera, so I don't know that I'll impulse-purchase one down here.

I'm also at (what I hope is) the tail end of a migraine. But other than than, vacay is good. No sharks, no sunburn. YET.

I cannot express how much I love this. I love having a President who is a writer and an intellectual.

I'm scrolling through the citations for his article. So pleasing!

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

I love having a President who is a writer and an intellectual.

So. Much.

How is this possible? I worked until midnight last night, it's now 8:30pm, and this is STILL a shitload of work in my inbox. If you looked at my virtual desktop right now, you'd think I hadn't done anything in a week. I cannot possibly finish all this before I go on vacation tomorrow. I'm having a bit of a panic, here. This is ridiculous, that I can't get my work DONE enough to go on a vacation!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

a marvel exec liked the focus on girls... whoa.

Well, they do have Kamala Khan/Ms. Marvel, Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur, Squirrel Girl, and Patsy Walker, Hellcat. So they have been working that tween girl market. Also there's a new black girl character that will be donning Iron Man's armor.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The Richard Dawson kissing thing was definitely a bit much.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have also noticed that he easily takes a cheek when it's offered. But yes.

Yay, homemade calzone is now part of my repertoire! A bit more mozzarella, and it's there.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Richard Dawson also looked so sweaty to me as a child in the 70's. I was repulsed by a lot of 70s tv because of sweatiness, like Taxi and MASH.
