Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's a good day, -t!

I got a pumpkin spice iced coffee at Starbucks today, which was delicious, but ridiculous.

And I missed my shot to conveniently give blood this week, so we'll see when I make it back there/when they make it back to me.

I find the long ass day in the car drives actually work much better with very frequent stops, even just to walk around the vehicle and get back in. Otherwise I get stiff and/or overtired.

My family's long drives always include rest stops every 2-3 hours no matter what (use bathroom/get snacks if needed or just stretch legs), but These Days I don't know if I'd be more nervous about multiple 5-minute rest stop breaks vs one night in a hotel. Or two hours on a plane. Honestly this is why I haven't been more than 2 hours from my house all summer.

Yeah, "string theory" is the one I was looking for. Like I told dcp, reading $ as string says you've worked with certain programming languages or computer systems - I think it goes all the way back to BASIC.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

way too much in the way of pumpkin flavored this and that
pumpkin spice iced coffee

I LOVE ALL THE PS STUFF! except it seems coffee. I got JoJos and petite cookies and fakey Pop-Tarts (The actual pumpkin Pop-Tarts that come out limited edition I have not seen yet, but this year I am going to STOCK UP!, and some soup.

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

Oh, man, only now do I realize I forgot to look for pumpkin ravioli!

Also got a pumpkin cold foam whatever on the way to give blood. Yum.

And string theory totally makes sense but I would need to see it in context to get there myself, I think.

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

Timelies all!

Haven't had much by way of pumpkin spice flavored things, as I don't like coffee. I haven't even had pumpkin pie, as my MIL doesn't like it, so we always do apple pie at Thanksgiving.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

The Trader Joe's wave of pumpkin stuff is about to become a tsunami. They had some stuff last week, including gluten free pumpkin bagels, which are so fucking good.

Yeah! That's what I had! I liked it.

Tomorrow might be a perfect day to go to Trader Joe's for All The Pumpkin.

I only drink black coffee but I'm happy for folks who are into the pumpkin spice lattes and such. I hope y'all are enjoying pumpkin spice season.
