It was a, what-you-call battle of wills and blood was spilled. Vendettas were sworn. It was a whole-- Fred: My God you're so full of crap. Spike: Yeah. Okay.

I have no doubt, personally, that he's got all kinds of fraud going on and I would really like to see him jailed for that and all his worldly goods going to pay damages
In lighter news, I forgot that I prefer Peet's pumpkin spice coffee to Starbuck's. No Peet's drive thrus convenient to me, alas, but I splurged on some k-cups for the office and it's very nice (although it pains me a little to be paying for my own coffee to drink in the office)

Happy Birthday, Matt!
I am about the furthest thing from a crafter that a person could possibly be, but I ordered a kit to crochet an amigurumi penguin anyway. We'll see how it goes. (It was delivered today, and Tim took it and inspected it to make sure all the parts were included, so I think I can definitively say he's on the mend.)

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Last night I went to Trader Joe's and committed Pumpkin Palooza. Old favorites include cream cheese, ice cream, and coffee. Among new items we have two soups, a pasta sauce, a braising sauce, vingegar, yogurt, blondies and an aray of cookies. The one thing I wanted and missed was pumpkin madelines because c'MON.
Then I totally partied and took my COVID-recovering butt home in a cab 'cuz that shit was heavy.

Thanks for all the birthday wishes, gang!
It is unfortunately a working birthday; I felt taking it off at the end of a week-long vacation when I have deadlines already being moved back would be a bit too much. But I'm treating myself to a viewing of Bros tonight, then going out for my birthday dinner with Mom tomorrow.

Our wings are not tired.
I did have a pumpkin martini last week. I don't remember what all was in it other than pumpkin vodka and brown sugar on the edge of the martini glass. I feel I deserve much credit for only having one. I ordered Brendon a pumpkin coffee concoction too, but knew that was going to be too sweet for my taste.

That ice cream is so fucking good. Pro tip: put mini chocolate chips on it.
And related to that, Tim just sent me to the quickie mart because he wanted (1) pretzels, (2) cherry cordial ice cream, (3) whipped cream, (4) sprinkles, and (5) a bear claw. An ice cream sundae is in his future.
I still have 4 more days of antibiotics and steroids for the sinus infection, and while the steroid munchies have kicked in, the antibiotics are making my stomach extremely unhappy to eat anything but dry toast. This is super unjust.

So unjust! May Tim thoroughly enjoy his sundae, and may your belly settle enough to let you indulge as well.
Mona and I are having popcorn for both lunch and dinner today as is our custom on hearing days.
