I've done that a little, too!
Right, there comes a point where you have to either move on, or just buy yourself a Klingon costume and go with it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

FB is once again reminding me that a high school classmate of mine (with whom I am otherwise not in touch but FB likes to tell me about birthdays and anniversaries, so) married a man named Dick Wang which is a very immature thing to be giggling about but my sense of humor HAS NOT EVOLVED SINCE PUBERTY apparently.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That's a name that takes balls to carry off.

A department-wide memo went out reminding people that customers can hear us over the phones when we swear at each other. Apparently the new phone system picks up background noise much better than the old one. All the geekboys are looking at each other guiltily. A couple of them sent anxious messages to find out if they were the ones who'd been caught. The response was "You'd already know if you were."
It does get pretty R-rated in here, but it's swearing for punctuation and emphasis, not anything else, so I just give them the Eyebrow of Inappropriateness when I hear it. "Old Enough to Be Your Mom or Grandma" has its advantages. I'd much rather deal with excessive emotion about how hard the latest update is for Final Fantasy or whatever than other things.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Weather's a little cooler than yesterday, but still nice.

The last time we went to my grandmother's grave we drove by her old house and saw that the owners were renovating it, which is nice. I like to think of that ancient house being a comforting home to new generations of people. The houses my folks and I have lived in, not so much (one is in disrepair and being advanced on by the woods behind it; the other is in an increasingly sketchy neighborhood).
