I accidentally left a drop of jam in the sink the other day, and it became Ant City in there. Luckily, a couple of ant traps and a couple of days of carefully cleaning everything ASAP, and it's much better.
Lorne: My little prince. Oh…what did they do to you? Angel: Nina…tried to…eat me. Lorne: Oh, you're--medic! You're gonna make it Angel. Just don't stop fighting. Doctor! Is there a Gepetto in the house?

Ants love to follow paths, and especially paths that lead to food that other ants found (they're helpful that way), so scrubbing near the walls does really help confuse them and encourage them to move on.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

With one hand, I am pointing at people and telling them, "I TOLD YOU THIS WOULD BE A PROBLEM SO DON'T EVEN LOOK AT ME RIGHT NOW." With the other hand, I'm pointing at other people and crying, "WHY ARE YOUR TABLES SO UNRELIABLE AND INACCURATE?!"
This could be a sign that I need some TUMS and a nap.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
When I worked at a customer service desk in high school, we had the following machines - food stamp machine with phone entry, cash register with 10 key, video dental computer with 10 key, main switchboard with phone entry, lotto machine with phone entry, bottle return with 10 key. It was so irritating.

I adulted and called chase to find out my account # ( after 5 years!) so I could pay off my car loan and cancel the autopay. And hey, the gamble that my car would survive a 5 yr, no interest loan paid off.
Now I should sink that payment into retirement or something. Next adulting.

How about three-quarters to retirement and the other quarter to breathing room in regular expenses?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
It's a typo for "video rental computer".

That's disappointing. "Video dental computer" sounded potentially -- yet entertainingly -- horrifying.
