Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I think I maybe need to stay off Twitter for the afternoon.

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

Also, I am unsure whether I should throw out the pot scrubber that sprouted a tomato seedling, or just plant it somewhere.

I vote plant it.

I dig the Gucci, aside from the badly Sharpie'd bags which I don't get at all.

Gucci's FW17 campaign

From the accessories and fabrics, I think we're only one or two fashion seasons away from a full '80s lace-and-shoulder-pads resurgence.

I finally got to the updates on Ask a Manager and OH MY GOD SRSLY?!

Coding and Sleeping

I've been doing a lot of video editing lately, and while software development makes me wish my computer was faster, video editing really makes me wish my computer was faster.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Spent more time than I should have on the Ask a Manager link. Amazing how quickly the Letter Writer went from clueless (and perhaps -- perhaps -- well-meaning) to downright malicious.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Still not sure if I have a sinus infection. I have an Rx for antibiotics, though I hate to use them if they're not necessary. But I'm feeling progressively worse as the days go on.

I literally thought today, maybe husband and I should retire in another country. It's weird to think about, and obviously not an issue at the moment, but with the vote today, I really had a minute of not being sure I wanted to stay in this country.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My old boss was very seriously considering it -- that's how he and his husband were planning vacations, as scouting trips for retirement.

Because books.

Does today feel especially bleak or is it just me?
