I don't fancy spending the next month trying to get librarian out of the carpet.

Party is ok. Had a fascinating convo with a dude firefighter who writes kindle romance/erotica for extra money. Sadly, no cute girls other than the host who invited me (who is not interested, as far as I can tell). Sigh.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, when I messaged Facebook!Rio she was all, yup, you've got me confused but lots of you do and I like y'all, so no need to defriend. So I didn't! And this fathers day I realized which rock star exactly and was all !!! momentarily.

I'm almost afraid to tell Victor.

There was a storm on the radar on its way to the Braves stadium, and I swear they set off the fireworks triple time to "Living in R-O-C-K in Coming to America Stars and Stripes Overture."

The Braves did not lose, but not for lack of trying.

I spent most of today Adulting while catching up on some shows that I couldn't keep up with during playoffs. I'm close to the lake and my neighborhood was getting cray when I went out for groceries this afternoon to get ricotta & spinach so I could make stuffed shells for dinner. I'm still hearing loud booming fireworks. It's after midnight and I wish they'd knock it off already.

I want to know more about this!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Ended up going up to Frederick for their festivities. Listened to sets by Sons of Pirates(mostly Jimmy Buffet covers, but also other country and rock covers) and Damn the Torpedos(Tom Petty tribute band). Weather turned out nice for it.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Seconding shrift, Theodosia, and Amy on wanting to know more.

In other news, it took me way too long to figure out that the reason I had a horrible headache is that I accidentally made a pot of decaf this morning instead of regular coffee.

This is an excellent reason one should never keep decaf in the house.
