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

In other news, I believe our handbasket has arrived at its destination. Behold, more Belindas in the wild: [link]

omg

~ma to your friend, Matt.

Got my flu shot today, so my arm is sore.

Got mine yesterday! I haven't noticed soreness though. Sorry about yours.

-t, do you have a sofa that is comfortable enough to sleep on?

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

I am probably cursing myself by posting about this, but so far, there are a bunch of empty seats on my flight to London, including one next to me, according to the seating chart.

Jess, too much (something I am unfamiliar with gaming.) oh dear.

Wine night was good idea. We got a new one, moved in Saturday. He & host are already becoming best buds.

Me, too. We'll curse ourselves together.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

After reports leaked that he called Trump a "moron" this summer, I wonder if it's Trump firing him or him quitting out of exasperation.

That's not true! He called Trump "fucking moron"

Given the general level of honesty and consistency from this administration, I figure he'll be out by the end of the month.

Well, let's be fair, just because he has no intention of leaving doesn't mean that Trump won't fire him for not genuflecting fast enough.

One time I sat on the couch reading fanfic and apparently I was so enraptured that I didn't budge, even a little, and my Fitbit thought I was sleeping for like 45 minutes. #soproud

at least post a link to the fic!

I don't remember, but I think maybe it was Captain America getting it on with Bucky.

A large, rich field to play in indeed.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

The guy we hired to paint our house worked one day and then got in a car accident. He had a concussion (poor guy--he came by last week and still looked under the weather). He took two weeks to recover. He then called and said he was starting back this week, but hasn't shown up or answered any texts. We both feel bad for the guy, but I have been staying home waiting to let him in every day and J is getting mad at his unresponsiveness. We've paid him 2/3ds already.

I don't think he's trying to scam us, but it's frustrating not to know.

Ooh, scrappy, that's tough.

I was at dinner with two friends and the one friend's gf. And they were talking about how the one friend and her gf invited the other one to thanksgiving at her parents' house. And blah blah, can she bring her girlfriend (who wasn't there), etc etc. and I'm sitting there like "...wow, you didn't invite MEEE?!!?" Sigh.

Our wings are not tired.

Wake up Natter!

Also, ugh for New Orleans. Looks like it may get a visit from Hurricane Nate, or at least a bunch of nasty weather. While the current EPA is looking to repeal the Climate Change regs.

Paint~ma for the new house, Scrappy. Looking forward to pictures.

My never ending house painting project continues. We have today and tomorrow, then yuck weather hits. They have been working 4 weeks. Three men, DH and two contractors dudes that live across the road from me. It is all going to be worth it, but $$$.
