I was cleaning off the side table, and in a stack of paper to recycle was old to-do lists, and on one of them, under a list of pet medications to get refilled (and a reminder to take a damn shower), was "don't let the existential dread in." I wonder how close to the inauguration it was.
Tracy: Well-- That call -- That call means you just murdered me. Mal: No, son. You murdered yourself. I just carried the bullet a while.

Aw, man, one of the Oregon State Parks sent me a notice that a site was available around eclipse time but when I look at it it's a mooring site. Way to get my hopes up, park system.
However, looks like my Wonder Woman stuff came in time for tomorrow's 5k! So what color cape should I get? I think I'm leaning towards blue.

I can't speak for yours, but mine ran out of red & blue capes before I got there, and I got the last silver cape. So, I guess, try to get there more than an hour before they wrap up for the night for maximum selection. (And I think I vote red!)

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
There's this muscle just under my right shoulder blade that hurts when I move my arm. Probably from toddler wrangling.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
So I'm at a cocktail bar, and the bartender is making rosemary syrup, and it smells SO GOOD.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Sheryl, I had a similar plain the other day and also blamed my toddler.
I want to be at the cocktail bar Tom is at.

There is at least one bar in Northside I need to take you to. (Full disclosure, there are apparently some really good craft cocktail bars downtown, but I am old and uncool and have no idea which ones they are.)

Oh, I'm in a classy cocktail bar, but I'm just drinking beer.
