Am I a background character in a comic book?
Entirely possible. Do keep us up to date if there are strange happenings--meteors, unusual animals, robots, etc...
Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

If someone appears at your door in the middle of a thunderstorm, clutching a baby, close the door, lock it, and turn off all the lights.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

We are using a robot for the ghost of Christmas Future this year. It's been hovering in the stage left wing for about a month now.

Coding and Sleeping
I've had a bad day. I've been busy all day long and accomplished almost nothing. I helped my grandmother move all morning, had lunch, did some laundry, mowed for a couple of hours (but didn't actually finish the yard), fixed a toilet (my only actual accomplishment), went to the grocery store, fixed dinner, and cleaned up the kitchen. Now I'm busy not getting enough software development done for work and rescheduling all of the things I wanted to get done today to other days. Almost a total fail.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Yes, she accidentally named her cats Nitty and Pearly.
That's adorable.
Today was a total success. Frances finished one homework assignment 2 days early, and then we went to a beach/lagoon for swimming and general hanging about. Perfect way to send off summer.

Personally, the word ally is fine with me, because you can be a fairly decent human being and sit on your dead butt. As an adult, in my mid-twenties, I had an e-mail argument with my father and wrote that he was full of crap(Man, the pearl-clutching that went on!) Still, much as they work my nerves and I like to curse, I'm somewhat pleased that I've never broken the f-omb barrier with any of them. Scola, sometimes I feel like the oldest unattached woman in the world, and, you know, kind of a human tragedy, with the chair and all. it sucks.

I'm sorry Gud, that was an unfortunate cross post

Almost a total fail.
How can it be a total fail when you helped your Grandma and fixed your toilet?

Yeah, sounds like you still accomplished more than me today, Gud! But hey, tomorrow is another day?
Also, with the freakish growth rate going on, aren't TCBITW and her brother available to mow the lawn? My parents pawned that task off on me and my siblings by the time we were about 12...

Yeah, maybe back to square one, but not a fail.
