Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

At least it's a generous glass. Airport prices are cray.

Y'all, I think I'm gonna order some tater tots, too.

Man, I really want wine and tater tots for dinner.

The juxtaposition of this made me have to reread, because for a moment I thought the Secret Service were going to be working out of a food truck.

That's next.

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

Huh. I guess it's to do with the Hall of Fame. I'm amazed that I live in Dallas and yet escaped the fact that the Cowboys would be playing today.

Also, Fox has a game show based on the app Shazam, and it is super-annoying. And hosted by Jamie Foxx.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Am jealous! Say hi to everyone we mutually know for me! If you see Gwyn, tell her I am going to attempt to get at least one of the five things done this weekend. I would just text her, but witnesses keep me honest or something. (She is basically my whole audience for the thing.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You guys, why are all of my plans on the same day? Saturday, it's a family party, friends staying with me will probably get here before I get home, and then I am going to a concert Saturday night! Too many plans. Of course that means I should be vacuuming or something now, but meh.

Y'all! Remember how I mentioned Waffles the Basset Hound? You should be able to see this picture: [link]

Ha! The House of Meat = Outback Steakhouse, which is in the VividCon hotel.

But I totally want Secret Service food truck fic now.

Man, I really want wine and tater tots for dinner.

Fly to Minneapolis and I will treat you.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Dear Staff Member:

Did you really CC my supervisor on an email saying "Would you buy eggs, because they were on the list and you didn't any when you went grocery shopping"? I mean, really? First, I did buy them. Second, I don't blame you for not seeing them, they were shoved so far in the back that I didn't see them either until after I got back from conning the grocery store into giving me another carton of eggs. Third, anytime we are running low on something, please feel free to take some petty cash and go buy some. There is a reason why I go through the fuss and bother of getting the petty cash reimbursed rather than letting it empty out and stay empty. This is one of them. Do you have any idea what sort of whiner it makes you look to whine to my supervisor about something you could fix yourself?

No love,

Me

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

This day can just end now

First, I have been up since three stressing about a work change in reporting structure and a meeting to clarify expectations. I have been incredibly happy in my job the past few years, and was really scared. The meeting turned out well, but then in another stressful meeting I got a text from my aunt saying that a) she could not reach my mother, who had called her and b) she was in the ED with her husband my uncle! Got a call from uncle two that my mother has lost sight on one eue and was going to ask a neighbor to take her to the dr. Then, I since I work where the ED is, I go to the ED, and spend three hours with my uncle and aunt, and trying to reach my mom. I reach my mom, she found a ride, but needs another tomorrow. But then the Drs come, and talk to my aunt and uncle- and then since I am a colleague they sort of chat with me privately and let me know it is pretty serious. Then- giant thunder rainstorms and trying to get the bus home, even though I fell bad leaving them in the ED waiting to be admitted, because I am pretty sure it is going to be a 24 to 48 hour period before a bed opens up. And the dog needs to be let out, but my mom can't do it because she has lost her vision

I think I need to buy a car ASAP
