I saw online a woman who was obsessed with Outlander. She and her husband redid their 1759 house so it looked more like something from Scotland - lots of deep blue walls, one room had imitation stone on the walls to make it look like a castle. It was well done and looked good, but that may take fandom a bit too far (note I said "may"). Needless to say, she had a meltdown when they announced it was ending (Outlander, not her house).
Bye, now. Have good sex.

Our wings are not tired.
Escape rooms in theory sound fun to me, but I'm self aware enough to know that timed puzzle solving would hit my anxiety buttons.
We did one and it made me feel utterly incompetent with the staff viewing us having to give us most of the clues.
Yay for the new job, Amy! Sounds like a good fit.
Needless to say, she had a meltdown when they announced it was ending (Outlander, not her house).
Well, the books did end.

ltc is back at school. She has a half day but mom and stepdad are going to pick her up. I’m drinking a dirty chai in the hopes that I’m not a complete crank demon when they arrive.

Have people been reading all this Taylor Swift Super Bowl conspiracy stuff? Just when I think the theories can't get more insane, they top themselves.

Punishingly Intricate
I’ve done a number of escape rooms over the years and they’re pretty fun. I always feel good if I can solve one of the clues and help my teammates with the others. Thankfully I’ve always gone with people who are much better at puzzles than I usually am.

The funniest thing about the Taylor Swift "controversy" to me is the people convinced that she's dating Kelce for his money.

Yeah, I wasn't the super-solver, but I did some stuff. I was a good assister!
I'm not actually worried about the gaba. I tend to not have issues with stuff like that, and I'm on a low dose.
Regular workday inbetween meetings. Don't wanna.
Glad ltc was able to go to school.

People are so weird. And not always in a good way.
{{sj}} What is a dirty chai? All I can think is chai + olives and that can’t be right

I asked that exact question yesterday, oddly enough. It's a chai tea with a shot of espresso, i think was the answer. Is that right, sj?
My actual question was, "Dirty chai? So, like chocolate?" I asked, hopefully... nope.
