Oh, let there be handcuffs. Pleeeeease let there be handcuffs.
I know there won't, but I have the weekend to dream.

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

Perp walks!
[No, autocorrect, not purple walks. In many other contexts, probably, but not now.]

God news, everybody! I did NOT lose my charging cable, I never put it in my purse.
I mean, not impending arrests good, but pleasant for me.
BTW, sitting all day listening to multiple lawyers ask similar questions over and over again is exhausting. And now that I've written it out, I don't know why it took me by surprise, but it did.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I want Trump to flee to Russia this weekend, where he resigns and never comes back.

I would accept that outcome.

Tonight begins my vacation. I work to the end of support hours on our phone lines, 6 PM, and any customers still in the queue have to be taken before we go home. I was wrapping up a call at 6, happy to be done, and I saw there was a customer on line. Three people were on standby status, and I figured one of them would take it. However, one by one, they all logged off their computers and headed out. One more person went on standby, I had just finished the write-up on my call, waited about 30 seconds, then took the call myself, 8 minutes after the end of the shift. The other person disappeared very quickly.
And as I started working with the new customer, the interoffice chat system popped up with a private message from my supervisor: "Thank you!" So someone else was watching and wondering who was going to bite the bullet at the end of shift on a Friday night. So beaucoup brownie points for me, especially since my supervisor know I'm on vacation now.

I hope you get amply rewarded for that, Connie.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
I want Trump to flee to Russia this weekend, where he resigns and never comes back.
That would be acceptable. But I really want him to spend the rest of his life in a US prison, with nary a flake of gold leaf to be found.

Our wings are not tired.
I really want to see Mr. LockHerUp Flynn taken away. There is no fitting Trump punishment that will satisfy me. Financial ruin and Melania turning on him would help. My bitterness runs deep.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Got a pedicure this morning. Now my toenails are sparkly gold with colored confetti.
