Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

Our wings are not tired.
Yeah, I had loads of fun with April 1st when the kids were at home, but don't indulge anymore. They loved it.
Quite sure it isn't a joke, but apparently for the next 30 days I have full self-driving ability in my car. I did notice when I drove to the park this morning that my surround display was substantially enhanced where I could see farther behind and to the sides, lane painting, lights, and so forth. I always had some, but more detail. I'm not going to try it out in downtown Ft. Lauderdale traffic, but around the park and mall where I charge is fine. I've noticed lately it wants to park for me all the time too, but I still do it myself.
As I typed this DH came through and said he was going to the phone store to upgrade his phone, so I told him to take my car and play with it. He left his phone on top of the car where it slid off in traffic and was smushed. Someone found it and he repaired the screen, but some other functions still don't work, so new phone. We can't count the number of times he has driven off with things on top of the car, or when he had the truck on the back bumper. Sigh, he is so brilliant with so many things, and so completely scatterbrained in other ways.

Indeed. Of course, in recent years it has become increasingly difficult to trust anything there. I am particularly annoyed with the stunning, but fake, photography. The world has so many wonders for fabulous photos, why you gotta be that way?

Friends of ours eloped on April 1st several years ago, and I genuinely didn't believe them. It was for real, though. This is the risk a person runs when they do a thing on April 1st.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
"Top of the car" is a much more casually convenient place for him than for most of us.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
3 day weekend was really nice and I feel more human, but I am just really really over this whole work thing.

Someone tell me to stop booping people on Tumblr and get to work.

I haven't opted in, because I know I'll end up booping all day, when I have a pile of work to get through.
