Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

The status is NOT quo.

I use the 1 Password vault, and its pretty awesome. Even with that I'd gotten lazy though.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Plans to go to Memphis for theatre and dinner were derailed by oversleeping thanks to the headache the bagpipers and drummers gave me last night. No big loss, I looked up an online preview of the play I was going to see online and it actually didn't look that appealing. Also, I've already splurged too much on eating out this weekend so high end sushi is probably better put off for a week or two. (The money will come from the same checks, but I'll feel more fiscally responsible.)

Now to figure out if my skull can handle Skull Island, or if I should just stay home and read this afternoon.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Those are useful links, Pix, thanks! I really need to manage my passwords better. My bank account has a unique password, but other financial sites don't, and I know that's bad, so why do I do it? Lazy, same reason I do all the other dumb stuff I do.

Moving is hard! I might stay where I am forever just because I'm too lazy to move. It would have to be the perfect house and the perfect situation to get me to move again.

The Pods sound like a great idea, though.

Being able to watch a rocket launch from your porch also sounds great! I've never seen one live, it's on my bucket list.

I'm on Day Two of the monthly Intractable Headache. This time with light sensitivity! Woo, upgrade! I never used to get bad headaches with my period, but the last year or so I get them for about 3 days right before the Communists invade. This is an aspect of menopause I am not enjoying.

(I hesitate to call them migraines, because I'm sure they're not as bad as the migraine headaches some of my friends get. But if I have to call in sick for it, because I can't stand to look at the computer screen, then it's a migraine. At least as far as work is concerned.)

Migraines don't have to be agonizing, mine are almost always moderate, responsive to meds, and fade after a few hours. They can range from no pain symptoms at all to the debilitating kinds ita used to suffer.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Skyped with my folks, had lunch, got groceries and are now washing Mr. S's dirty clothes while he naps. After he wakes up, Gary's mom is coming over and we'll go to dinner. Typical Sunday at home.

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

Just got home from seeing the matinee of "Zoot Suit," a play I have wanted to see since the first production, 40 years ago. Very timely script and a well-done production.

Bleagh, Twitter. Turns out if you say publicly that you find a 70-year-old racist charicature upsetting, people yell at you.

I'm reminded why I mostly just retweet other people.

I ended up chatting with my pool staff about...Buffy. Katee brought it up, that she was rewatching from season 1. They were 7 when it first aired. They were nicely, and believably, surprised I was 21 at the time. Anyway, it was funny to drop some backstory on them, including tape trees and going to visit internut axe murderers in the early days and oh yeah, my TG trips they know all about (Katee has been there longest, she knows all about N&G) are born from, yeah, Buffy.

And then they asked if I knew about Firefly.

Ahaha. Oh, babies.

Or, as my co-workers said, "You know, that show Whedon did before he did the Avengers."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Why, back in my day, no one even knew his name wasn't Josh!!
