Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am still tickled by the idea of Swede's being all "what do you mean we were supposed to be in church today, didn't you say waffles?"

That is a good one!

Feeling itchy?

Well, I did just totally uproot my life...

I think they meant something different by "bad"

Yeah, "badness" varies. It can mean anything from malware to "I just don't like it."

We have visitors to our site today and again my boss does not include me in their tour with either introductions or explanation of what I do. I did introduce myself. If I was not pretty positive that my position is very secure, this is the kind of thing that could lead one to doubt.

Punishingly Intricate

One of the many lessons I learned from traveling with my parents (mostly my dad, tbh) for a couple of weeks is, Don't ask people questions to which they could not possibly have the answer.

Dear online reviewers:

Do not give a bag a 2-star rating because it's "smaller than I expected." It is not the bag's fault that you can't visualize the clearly stated dimensions.

Also useless: a 1-star review for "did not arrive in time for my trip."

While I'm at it, there's a special place in hell for people who give low reviews to books because 1) they arrived damaged 2) they took more than 2 days to arrive or 3) they "weren't what I expected."

Or 4-star reviews for something that they utterly disliked, didn't fit right, and wouldn't recommend. I always read the one-star reviews to see if it's an actual problem or just people being pissy.

The big fancy surge protector/external battery thing my work equipment is plugged into started sparking and smoking! It's out on the back porch now, maybe thinking about what it's done.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

OK, that's enough with the fires, appliances!
