Every time some dude roars past me in an expensive car, zooming around lanes and not using turn signals, I think, "Sorry about your dick, dude." It's not even intentional anymore.
I know, world in peril and we have to work together. This is my last office romance, I'll tell you that.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I decided to have a pint of Guinness with lunch because I like to live dangerously in a very mild way and that turned into two 22 oz pours because that is what happens when you sit at the bar and now I would really like to nap and not work any more. These forecasts will not analyze themselves, alas.
ETA that's a 175% increase in actual beer consumption vs forecast, ftr. Not great for my accuracy stats.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I have an appointment tomorrow morning for my car to get routine maintenance. That pushes grocery shopping to the afternoon. Such an exciting life I lead.

Thrive to spite them
Steph I'm not a huge fan of smoothies but I know that M and his Mom like them at times. So I may try some and maybe get everyone on board with that.
My favorite snack right now is grapes, some cheese, and triscuits (or Aldi brand). Sometimes celery. I need to expand on rmrhibgs like that.

Good stuff you can add to smoothies: peanut butter powder, sugar-free syrups, almond extract (or any extract), cinnamon.

Our wings are not tired.
My smoothies almost always include avocado, because yum. There is always a large bag of frozen mixed berries on hand here too.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I have peanut butter powder and didn't even think about adding it to a smoothie. I'm definitely going to do that!

Our wings are not tired.
We had a tame anniversary. Went to the movie theater, which was quite full, and saw Moving On. Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda so what's not to love. Reserved seats are a good thing.
Big excitement today was getting a new faucet in the kitchen. The previous faucet didn't swivel, as in to get water into one side of the sink you had to use the spray extension. Very odd. Changing the faucet is challenging for Brendon with getting under the sink and small places. He started it last night and I made him leave it to finish this morning. Since he had the water off we had used the lobby restrooms, which I thought was a cool option at least.
Now off to shower since I have water again! Better than going to the gym for that.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
My go-to smoothie is a banana, frozen strawberries, half a cup of plain yogurt, a couple tablespoons of almond- or sunflower-butter, and enough orange juice to ease the blending. Sometimes I add frozen blueberries or peaches. It’s so good—I have it 2-3 times a week.
