Timelies all!
Mr. S had a major meltdown(We wouldn't let go back outside, because neither one of us wanted to go) and broke his tablet and the lightbulb from his lamp. We're not replacing the tablet right away(which of course led to more outbursts)
Now hold on, I'm gonna press the right pedal harder. I expect us to accelerate.

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

Random, but….why did I have nightmares last night that I was late for a flight and was trying to smuggle my dog in in a suitcase and freaking out he’d be found or have to gate check him but also that it was really clever to put him in a roll aboard in the overhead??? So weird. Multiple scenarios of that!!

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Because I am a petty petty bitch who thrives on schadenfreude, I am getting a boatload of serotonin from finding out that the "parent church" in Columbus of my Freak-Ass Church down here has been the subject of a 5-night news investigation about being a fucking manipulative, damaging cult. No goddamn lie. Man, it's gotta SUCK to be such a shitty "church" that the news does an investigative story on you and they find so much dirt that they make it a 5-night series.
Yeah, sure, it's been like 20 years since I was a part of the FAC, and if I were a bigger person, I wouldn't care about this, but I am not, in fact, a bigger person, and this is giving me LIFE. I can't even tell you how much.

For real. I haven’t seen a multi-day news series like that since Rachel Maddox covered the Flint water crisis. And that involved a state government poisoning tens of thousands of people.

Our wings are not tired.
Yeah, what Hec has to say abut the FAC.
Signing contracts on house sale tonight. Agreed to a price. Quick timeline. 10 days for inspection, close March 23rd. May all be smooth with the various hoops. Yeah, I have to do some serious purging and packing too.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.
