Gavin, ask yourself this question. What are you more afraid of, a giant murderous demon or me?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Home again, home again. It's way hotter here than the office. Well, I've got a week to weigh the pros of cons of doing that again.

Funny thing I noticed - my key fob thingy had a dead battery in February, so I had to stick in a slot on the dashboard to make the car go. I replaced the battery after shelter at home started. Today when I pulled into my driveway I automatically reached to pull the fob out of the slot and had to think about why that automatic motion was not getting anything for me. I have not been doing that when I come home from the grocery store, apparently it's a coming-home-from-work specific habit at this point

chrismg: [link] The Splendid Table on chili peppers. I haven't listened to it, but it might have something to help with that craving

What is even happening?

Laura, I saw the news about your impending grandson. How wonderful!

I'm sorry about the baby bunnies, askye.

Tickybox, who is a fan of WWDitS, has asked if she can be my minion, as she recognizes my vampire status.

(She also ships Guillermo/Nandor. Because we raised her right.)

I always figured Plei sprogged to produce a minion for you, Atropa.

I'm going to the library today!

OK, so it's just for a 'contactless pickup' of a DVD (I literally have a dozen outstanding requests for books but there's quite the backlog) but I don't think I've ever gone 3 months between Going To The Library since about the age of 7.

Mr. Scola’s wardrobe by Botany 500

I was outdoor drinking this afternoon, but I made it home just moments before the thunderstorm passed over.

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

Timelies all!

Ate lunch outside today. We picked up lunch at Panera, then went to a nearby playground that had picnic tables. (This way Mr. S could go run around the playground after he ate.) Only down side was that the table we ate at was in the sun, and I got a little burnt.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

Wouldn't it be nice if I could list a speeding ticket as a deduction?

eta: I mean, I paid it over the phone the very next day, didn't bother with any court proceedings, just deposited a nice chunk of change into Clackamas County's coffers...seems like that should warrant a deduction? Amirite?

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

Since it's basically a contribution to the state's resources, yeah, it ought to be deductible!

I have to do about an hour of work today, and then I'm gonna tackle the clutter. Yesterday I did yard work and did not die so I feel pretty happy about that.
