Oh no! I'm so sorry that you have to deal with this again. Sending the ~ma for an easy time for Tim and continued negativity for you.
Willow: You know what they say. The bigger they are... Anya: The faster they stomp you into nothin'.

Natter 77: I miss my friends. I miss my enemies. I miss the people I talked to every day.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."
That's the opposite of fun, Steph.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Y'all, Tim has Covid again (Electric Boogaloo)
His fucking shop! I swear to god.
Matilda had her booster shot on Saturday and is still having headaches and fatigue so she's staying home today.
Y'all remember how Scrappy has sex dreams with celebrities all the time? (Well, I do anyway, and I always felt jealous because I never do).
So I was having a very boring dream last night, and it was in a cubicle office type setting. Imagine that hyper mundane vibe of The Time Variance Authority. And my only pleasure in this dream was that my cube was out of sight of my supervisor so I could skive off.
Then suddenly standing next to my cubicle was Sigourney Weaver and some random dude. And they were doing some kind of improv exercise where they were high and paranoid and giggly and trying to hide from the boss. (And we're talking big perm era Ghostbusters Sigourney.)
Next thing I know Sigourney is crouched down in my cubicle below the sightline, making shush noises and waving me down next to her. And when I get down next to her she starts making out with me. And I thought, "Well, I'm not turning that down!"
That's as far as it went. But my brain now has the image of me kissing Sigourney Weaver and I don't regret that a bit.

Apparently if you're enough of a power nerd, there is nothing that cannot be flowcharted.
His fucking shop! I swear to god.
Yeah, combined with immunosuppressant meds for his RA, it's not a great combo.
If I continue *not* getting it, I think it'll be interesting but statistically useless anecdata about how the vaccine + booster work (or, I guess, don't work) in immunocompetent vs immunosuppressed people.
But my brain now has the image of me kissing Sigourney Weaver and I don't regret that a bit.
Way better of a dream than getting a goat in the mail.

I really need to start working "immunocompetent" into my everyday conversation.
Boss: You are absolutely incompetent in every way!
Me: Pfft! I'm completely immunocompetent.

My neighborhood will shun me if I have a goat instead of chickens. It will be very sad.

Your yard will be filled with rusted out abandoned lathes overrun with baby goats. The neighbors will call you two "That smelly goat couple."

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Well fork, Tep. I hope all y'all's super powers keep it mild for him (and you and his dad negative)
Your neighbors would love for you to have a goat, Tep, don't even try to pretend otherwise. There would be cute goat pictures with your stately manor in the background all over NextDoor with captions like "I wish this was my goat"
