Played with Kaylee. Sun came out, and I walked on my feet and heard with my ears. I ate the bits, the bits stayed down, and I work. I function like I'm a girl. I hate it because I know it'll go away. The sun goes dark and chaos has come again. Bits. Fluids. What am I?!

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I keep hearing stories about people yelling at their elderly parents to stay home, often with no luck. There is an amusing video of an Italian father who announces he's going out for coffee, to the protests of his family. He puts his coat on, goes out ... and then stops at the kitchen window to get coffee.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I confess to taking mine once a day, despite feeling fine.

Yeah, me, too.

I used buttermilk and flour to make homemade fried chicken last night and it came out pretty good! But now I have "Skip to my Lou" stuck in my head.

What is even happening?

Ben is negative, Cindy! Very good news. Especially since, as he only told me yesterday, they sat right next to each other for three days. ::headdesk::

Thank goodness!

I keep thinking about the bleach thing and I'm speechless. There are no words.

I have plenty of words, most of which would land me in Leavenworth.

Ben is negative, Cindy!
I spent almost a minute trying to figure out if someone had been talking about Glory.

You're saying all this time he's been subletting from her?

Because books.

Ben IS Glory! Or Glory is Ben? ::hums Memory::

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

McConnell's "let the states go bankrupt" idea seems to have pissed off some Republicans. A few are backing him but others aren't so it's interesting to see where the split is.

I seem to recall that, on the whole, Red states are more likely to be net consumers of federal funds and Blue states are net providers. Add that to the way the epidemic is moving into Red states, and any Republicans who can think beyond the ends of their own noses may be seeing a really unpleasant scenario unfolding by fall. Just in time for elections. (Assuming they happen.)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh hold with a doctor's office, and the Muzak has stopped. Is that a bad sign?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Depends on how you feel about Muzak.
