Oy, askye. I'm sorry about the car accident.
Laura, these are great news!
Zoe: Yeah? Thought you'd get land crazy that long in port. Wash: Probably, but I've been sane a long while now, and change is good.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
askye, I'm glad you're safe and uninjured!
Happy belateds to all the birthday celebrants.
We spent yesterday at a game night hosted by some friends at their church rec hall, which was a ton of fun. We brought Throw Throw Burrito and after we'd finished our game we let the toddlers in attendance take ownership of the burritos and run around throwing them at each other. Then we played Blockbuster which is like a combination of Anomia/Taboo/Charades but for movies, and is insanely fun. And the packaging is DELIGHTFUL.
To balance that out, I'm spending this afternoon searching the NYU library system for the readings I need to do for my study-abroad trip to Cuba, as the professor has very unhelpfully not uploaded them to the class website. (There is a folder called Resources with a bunch of stuff in it from last year's class, but none of the articles she's assigned in the syllabus.)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh my god you're going to Cuba! I remember this coming up before but I forgot and now I am all excited again

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Yes that's going to be an amazing trip.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
I just written a class assignment on a specific subject just because I could include the phrase "zombie apocalypse" in it (thank you, 2011 CDC campaign!). Academic fun, I missed thee.

What is even happening?
That's a perfectly fun reason, Shir.
How is your mother doing?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
We're back home now. Mr. S has been awful most of the day. I need a vacation to recover from my vacation.

I am super annoyed because I got my laptop fixed (the screen) but I can't get it to recognize my WiFi Or my hotspot. So I still can't use it.

That's super frustrating, Sophia!
I'm on a plane! Love the one free hour of WiFi. Very glad to be heading home. I'd totally commune with my sister and brother in law, but I wanna be home in my house and see my friends and stuff.
Also I feel like a 5 day week is going to be hard! Like, I had a weekend, then worked a day, then two days off, worked two days, have a weekend, will work two more days, have a day off, two more days, weekend...I could get v used to this schedule!

And also, my Facebook is in Spanish? Which I do not speak. WTF?
