Sara, I swear that cat is too smart for her own good. I hope you have the opportunity to get some rest today.
Come on. You drop by for a cup of coffee, and the world's not ending? Please.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I've reached the point with a vendor/salesperson in which I want to respond, NO MEANS NO!. And I never go all caps.
Apparently the epicenter for pumpkins that become canned pumpkin is Peoria(?) which is where the weather has caused problems for pumpkin farmers. If you need canned pumpkin, get it early.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Congrats, Maria!
I was about to fuck off for the rest of the day, but just remembered a thing I really need to do! But I don't think it will take long...

I support your fucking off, Maria. Begone, cold!
I always have more canned pumpkin on my shelf than I really need. I randomly panic and think I don't have any and buy several cans and find I already had several when I go to put them away. In my defense, I also randomly go on pumpkin cheesecake/pie/whatever baking binges and use up a bunch at once, but I think even taking that into account I am well positioned to withstand a canned pumpkin shortage.
ETA I am not really watching the pig for the rest of the day, I am working. And probably not finishing everything I wanted to get done today, because I keep getting handed more, sigh.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Happy Friday, people.
Glad to see Tom has everything in hand.
The Toscana with wine is always delicious, but I haven't tried the cinnamon.

I did the thing!! Now I'm making a list for next week. Possibly to start on Monday.

Hm, maybe I will stop by TJ's for an assortment of Toscanas to try.
Attagirl, Jesse.

Thanks, Jesse!
I did the thing!!
I thought I did the last thing, but people keep emailing me more things. If I do them now, much less headache. NSM later, but I have been reactive rather than proactive. So I have provisionally been fucking off.

Poor Pumpkin. I think she and Eddie are probably kindred spirits.
In other news, I get to go to the Cards vs. Cubs game tonight! Woohoo!
