You guys have to watch the new Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries tonight. Death by vibrator !! I imagine the writers' discussions were fun...

All I have left to do tonight are writing reviews for other people, laundry, dishes, and packing. I think. I hope. I took care of everything I possibly could this week, which is why I'm a stressbomb. I was updating a manager and he said, "I'm sure you have everything under control." I found the wherewithal not to laugh in his face and then scream, "DO I?!"

I really don't wanna work on these reviews, you guys. But perhaps a reward of wine and cheese at the end will get me through it.

Are the only things you can mong cheese, fish, whores and war?

Heh.

I should try some non-bovine cheeses to see if my body will let me get away with that. I miss cheese.

So, hey. It looks like I'll be making my very first trip to Vegas in October. I'm going for a conference so I won't have tons of free time, but what should I do during the time I have?

Tomorrow I'll be at a local arts festival handing out Bernie Sanders flyers. Tonight I'm printing out said flyers. With any luck I'll have a chance to check out the festival itself.

And iron, though that word's not used much any more.

Jealous, sarameg. I love touring water treatment facilities, especially the ones that have been around a while (the water palaces around here are pretty amazing, and I'm kind of lumping the Old River Control into that even though it is not about treatment, but it's filed in the same part of my brain)

But perhaps a reward of wine and cheese at the end will get me through it.

Worth a try.

So many choices, aurelia, I don't know where to start with recommending!

I have my running clothes for tomorrow in the wash dryer, headphones charging, chest strap washed and air drying, and bib, shoes, etc. packed up and ready to go. Tuns out I will need to leave the house around 6am to get to my parents' house in time for all of us to get to the race in time for my mom to get a shirt (she registered all of us but somehow got me and my dad shirts but not herself, and it's a pretty shirt, based on this logo [link] ) so the more organized I can be tonight the better. I think I'm in pretty good shape for the moment.

Thank you, Jessica, iron is good one. Would blacksmiths also be ironmongers or would they buy from ironmongers?

Costermonger has just popped into my head. Is that a thing?

Suzi, I missed Jack's travails reading on my phone earlier. Vibing for a quick and easy recovery! Poor doggie.

Google says yes!

aurelia, people-watching is always enjoyable. Go watch the Bellagio fountain and other big classic stuff!
