Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.
'Time Bomb'
Natter 77: I miss my friends. I miss my enemies. I miss the people I talked to every day.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!
Happy Birthday ND!
I found out yesterday that 2-hour work meetings are much less onerous if you can pet your boss' highly affectionate labrador retriever throughout.

Happy birthday ND!
I got lazy and didn’t go to the store last night and now I am lying in bed remembering I do not have milk for my coffee. Sigh.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
This whole working for a living thing does not spark joy.
So much this. Really really want to retire.
Glad the report was good, dcp
Happiest of Days to ND.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Happy birthday, ND!
I had mentally prepared myself to not go running this morning, but it's so sunny out now I have to reassess.
But that might just be the Onerous Task Avoidance talking.

Speaking of onerous tasks, I just got my colonoscopy scheduled for May 6!

Go Tom! I did manage to finally do an send in the at home test a few days ago, so should know in a couple weeks if I also have to do one.
David, go run! Then when there’s a bad weather day you can say “well I did that run on the nice day so I can sit this out”

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Yes, go run! I did strength-training & cardio this morning, because I have appointments after Peanut's dropoff (when I would usually run).
