I went to a corporate volunteer thing yesterday (bagging food for food banks). We were so efficient that they set us home early so the next shifts would have something to do. I got all my weekend chores except for vacuuming done, which means today is looking pretty lazy. I feel autumnal, event though temps are still in the 80s, so I'll probably set a pot roast going in the slow cooker. (That always says fall food to me.) But for now I'm trapped under cat.
Tact is just not saying true stuff. I'll pass.

Oh, good, I hoped the ghost walk thing would amuse.
The house is visible on google street view from two sides, that's something, and I came across some kind of film made by high school students that is supposed to feature it in some way but I didn't watch enough of it to tell how.

Cincinnati to Chicago is $700. The hell?
That's why I drove to Indy last month. Same ridiculous fare.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Need to write more thank you notes. Also need to start moving my comics to the basement. Have a big case of the "don't wanna"s.

I would have driven, but since it was a work trip and they reimbursed everything, I pretty much didn't care.

I know it's been a while since I've flown thanks to virulent hatred of the TSA, but I remember flights from Memphis to the West Coast being in the $250-350 range, and my income sure hasn't doubled or tripled since then. Are the airlines determined to drive everyone back to using ground transportation?

Magic Hour is real, except it's a lie because it's actually more like Magic 35 Minutes At Most If You Get Lucky And It's Not Too Cloudy. #formerfilmstudent

That's a pretty complicated concept, Jessica, real but a lie. I don't know if I can get onboard with that.
I need everything that beeps in my house to learn two voice commands: "I'm on my way, shut up" and "fuck off". Get on that, Science.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Shorter flights can be the worst.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
So, if you found a shirt you really like, in a style you can't find often, but it only comes in a color that doesn't really work with your hair, would you buy it anyway? Or would you say redheads can't wear fuchsia and pass on it even though it's otherwise perfect?
