"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

My day was fully redeemed with trombone practice.

{fist pump}

"You don't give a shit, you bitch!"

I second that "Yikes!" On the one hand, people go squirrelly in grief. OTOH, I know that you do give a shit, and that was mean.

Punishingly Intricate

Baltimore peeps, what is up with your mayor? I haven't really seen much about her having issues until this morning.

It is a long and ridiculous story. John Oliver did a bit on it a couple of weeks ago and it's just gotten more absurd since then. [link]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So I'm scared to go on the internet because of Endgame spoilers, but I also don't want to do any more work. It's a conundrum!!

I guess I'll do more work.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

May I recommend this video of Schitt's Creek replicated in the Sims? [link]

No Endgame spoilers and it is UTTERLY charming.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

This is the only place on the internet I can go today. Thank god I'm seeing Endgame at 8:30 tonight. (I'm also waiting for my coordinator to send me an article to edit, so I'm really at loose ends. I should continue my re-read of Good Omens.)

I finished my Farscape rewatch so in theory I have lots of time to focus on work-work and schoolwork, but my brain doesn't wanna today. Fortunately I am already thoroughly spoiled for Endgame so the internet is wiiiiiiiiide open.

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

FWIW I have seen no spoilers on my FB feed.

I too have no interest in working.

So I confirmed while at the theater to see Endgane last night, that Mac no longer works there. He just stopped showing up for work or calling in about 2 weeks ago, then had the nerve to show up to the "team meeting/Endgane employee viewing" on Wed at midnight. Never met a bad decision he didn't make this kid. Anyway, I let him know that I know and told him to get a new job. No response and he was 20 min late for curfew, woke me up and had the dogs all riled up do I had to get out of bed to let him in. Next time that happens, the garage door code will be changed.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Daaaaamn. That is...something.

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

I don't know when I'm going to see Endgame, but I also realize I have missed some (all?) of the MCU movies since Infinity War, so I guess I need to watch, what, Antman and the Wasp and Captain Marvel?

I have plenty of work to keep me occupied today but very little inclination to actually do any of it. Getting really tired of this tossing and turning until about 5am when I finally drop into deep sleep with not really enough time to get a full sleep cycle in before my alarm goes off. Do not recommend.
