Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ugh, that sounds terrible, Sheryl.

Update: Am eating popcorn. Sorry, sj.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Well someone has to eat all the popcorn.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Has Matilda seen Twelve Forever on Netflix?

She's actually just started watching it. After I said I would kick in the TV if she watched another episode of Dance Moms.

I hear there's an awful lot of coffee in Brazil... but no iced? Inconceivable!

I got a carful of safety inspectors on their way to a surprise inspection at the big generator plant in Everett, so I expect somebody somewhere was not going to have a good day. I told them I was going to know who to praise when the plant doesn't blow up.

TFW you make a credit card balance to a zero interest card and it shows up on the new card, but is also still showing up on the old card.

I am on hold now, but so help me dog if I transferred some rando person's debt to myself am going to lose it.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I hear there's an awful lot of coffee in Brazil...

My brain made a hopscotch jump from that to get earwormed with Rosemary Clooney singing "Brazil."

ok nice customer service man verified that the account #s match and said it can take 7-10 business days to show up, and we are on business day 4, so, as so often is the case in my life, patience is the answer.

oh yeah I did not post here. Seller agreed to all repairs that I requested and the biggest of that is a new roof or significant repair to the front porch roof.

Closing is in 2 weeks!

What is even happening?

Worse, McDonald's here doesn't serve breakfast or iced coffee. Iced coffee isn't even a thing most places, despite the heat. Starbucks has cold brew but it's usually not in stock. Some of the fancy coffee shops in the hipster part of town will make coffee tonics, but I really just want a large Dunkin iced, which is unobtainable unless I try to make it myself. Tragic.

Gris, I am sensing a business opportunity.
