Sorry, Captain. I'm real sorry. I shoulda kept better care of her. Usually she lets me know when something's wrong. Maybe she did, I just wasn't paying attention...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My goodness -- Cindy and Fiona?! Long time no see, you guys.

I want to tell him, "Dude I'm on your side. But Trump is so batshit nuts that you can stick to the verifiable facts and still prove that he's not worth voting for."

I think that's totally worth saying explicitly.

Hi Jesse! Strange times bring strange things out of the woodwork.

(Actually, I lurk here pretty much every day, but you're usually all asleep when I'd be posting, so I don't).

Aw! I figured you were still around at least some. We would like overnight posts from you! (Over-US-night -- billytea might disagree as to the timing.)

Can I interest you in an old (dated), charming, and extremely cheap house? [link]

Coding and Sleeping

My vacation has started. So far I've done some work even though I'm technically not there and then I've moved on to cleaning and being criticized.

In re podcasts: I don't like 'em. Don't get me wrong. I listen to certain ones, but I resent having to listen to a podcast or watch a video, rather than read a thing. I like to read a thing.

Me too! I don't know why, but I just like to Read The Things.

Put on some headphones. Ijs. Is everyone else cleaning also?

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

Hi, Fiona and Cindy! Good to see you both!

I can't stand podcasts and I wish I liked them. Listening to someone read when I can't see their face bothers me. I have to concentrate hard to hear the words and put them together into meaning, and my mind drifts away mid-sentence. Also I can read faster than anyone can talk and I feel like it slows my brain down. Plus the sheer annoyance of someone "umm"ing and stumbling, and laughing and chatter in the background making it hard to hear.
