Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

The Cartoon Guides are excellent.

Thanks, everyone. Please remind me this does not mean I can skive off the remaining week before my vacation...

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

Timelies all!

Congrats Consuela!

I don't think I can do that.

I need food, but I live in some kind of delivery desert. Places that say they deliver, including one service that I swear I signed up for with my address, suddenly become coy when they see my zip code.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I now remember why I don't make plans with thus friend that often - she's going to be a half-hour late! That is ridiculous. Ah well.

Bummer, Ginger. That sucks.

I am home, prescriptions are filled, I do not actually have to be anywhere until Sunday brunch. Whew. This felt like a very long day.

In addition to the new BBQ truck with the bone-in sandwiches and the never-open grill truck, my street just had a Latin fusion restaurant open. Looks pretty neat, something different for downtown and they have Salsa dancing classes on Thursdays.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

YAAAAAY SUELA! Job!

I was in the accelerated track in a computer/math/science magnet program in middle school, and it was, hands down, the best academic years of my life. I fucking loved that school. But I got terrible grades anyway, because I was constantly losing homework assignments and I have always been a terrible test-taker. (And then at the high school I wound up at, there was no way to test out of the math classes I'd already taken, so the geometry textbook I had in tenth grade was the same one I'd used in eighth. And then I became a film major and now I can't math at all.)

I'm going to start making tuna salad to take to lunch, because I want something more filling than the pasta I've been having (or, heck, cold tuna and pasta salad). But I've heard that you shouldn't eat tuna more than twice a week or something. What's the consensus on how often you can eat tuna?
