It's good to have cargo. Makes us a target for every other scavenger out there, though, but sometimes that's fun too.

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

I met up with an old friend to watch Late Night this afternoon. Then we wandered around a park catching Pokémon for a while. It was a nice Saturday.

Sorry about the work issues, Atropa and son of Laura. I hope both find something engaging soon.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Hey! Guess who randomly has no water?

Hey! Guess who randomly has no water?

Is it Scrappy? Is it you? I'm guessing you.

Why must the world bedevil you, Dana?! Why?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Dana only gets one utility at a time.

I just randomly learned that there is a theatre called Toy Boat Theatre. "Theatre is our most vibrant way of sharing our stories and ourselves. "

Given the choice in the Texas summer, I'd definitely take electricity to power the A/C.

The water was out because the house has a sensor in the walls to detect leaks and automatically turn off the water supply if it's tripped. As far as we can tell, there is not actually a leak in the house, since it hasn't tripped again. So we have water! And hopefully not an attic filling with water or something.

Yay? That seems like a cool idea but....yeah. Dana are you sure Texas hasn't cursed you?

I just watched the US v Chile game which was cool. It's more fun cheering for an underdog and when teams are evenly matched, though. I find it weird to chant USA when we are kicking butt.

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

Timelies all!

Quiet Sunday here, especially with Gary and Mr. S away.

I braved Target today, and the registers worked!

Her dad: You're welcome.

R: Oh, and thank you for the sperm that made me!
