I got one at the drugstore last time I picked up a prescription. Thought I might have to take my shirt off because it was spur of the moment and I was wearing something with long, fairly tight sleeve. Luckily the wide neckline meant I was able to just pull it off one shoulder and get it there, without being semi-naked in the drugstore!
I've tried to march in the Slayer Pride Parade ...

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
They started giving out flu shots at work this week. I need to figure out a day to get it. It shouldn't be that hard as the shot location is in my building.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
As usual, time to Do Work on a Friday actually means time I don't wanna! I have a couple of meetings this afternoon and then I'm going to take off early to get ready for the big festival! If it's not raining, I'll be parading tonight, and then playing more all weekend. YAY FUN.

OK, so no parading tonight, which sounds right. It was supposed to include a lot of kids and lanterns, so wind and rain would be no bueno!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I'll get a flu shot next time I see my doctor, in a couple weeks. Even if I forget, she'll remind me.
I have to send my work laptop back today and I'll be without a proper laptop. My own laptop is way old; it's hooked up to the printer and that's really its only job. I need a new laptop. I ordered one from Dell, to use my employee discount before it was gone, but I'm not happy about it -- the discount was almost nothing, I'm still paying over $1000 for a laptop that doesn't have a DVD RW drive (which I wanted) and it won't arrive for TWO WEEKS. Even if I get freelance work, I can't do it until I get the new laptop. I'm seriously considering cancelling that order and just going over to Best Buy.

I have this:
It works very well for laptops without an optical drive for those rare times I have the need.
This is where I buy laptops for the most part:

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Yeah, most laptops don't have DVD drives anymore.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh, that's a bummer, Zen. Instant-er gratification might be worth paying for in this case, being laptop-less for two weeks is a long damn time.

Thanks, Gud!
I can't cancel the order at this point, but I can return it when it gets here, so I still think I should go buy one. I might get freelance work on Monday; I need a laptop in hand by then.

Our wings are not tired
For folks watching the news, the Saddle Ridge Fire is close to Kristin and I but we are safe. Our canyon is a red flag zone, and eastern edge of the fire is probably within 10 miles of us, but the wind is blowing to the west, which keeps us safe right now.
