An excellent correction on that story about the ad: "An earlier version of this story misstated Satan and 2020 were feeding each other strawberries during a date. They were eating a chili pepper."
Dawn: I think a date should be in a real fancy restaurant, then champagne at a night club with a floor show, then ballroom dancing. Joyce: Unfortunately, we're not dating in a movie from the thirties.

Volans what do you mean about mail being scanned in? Are you somehow able to see your mail before you get it?? Is this magic?
I have been futless all day. Don’t wanna make dinner.

Apparently if you're enough of a power nerd, there is nothing that cannot be flowcharted.

It's called Informed Delivery, and like sj said, you get an email in the morning with scans of your mail and tracking numbers for packages. It's awesome. Sign up: [link]

Thanks to the AWESOME JenP, emails for the card exchange should be going out tonight.
Sophia, I can send you the full list of people who opted in to sharing their addresses and you can send from that.

USPS Informed Delivery is great! (Except when you're getting letters from the IRS.)
The grocery store parking lot did not look that busy so I decided to grab some things since it's been 11 days since I last stocked up. That was the wrong choice, friends. It was crowded, the lines were long, and people were chatty while in line which I did not appreciate even though they were wearing masks. NO TALKY INDOORS.
There was no toilet paper in the store, so I'm glad I've been stocking up.

Hi guys, DX's sister emailed me. She confirmed that his passing was unexpected and a shock to the family.
They were unsure how to reach out to us as his buffista email was locked.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Thanks for following up with DX's sister and reporting back, msbelle. It sucks and blows and hurts in so many ways, but it's good to know that that loop, at least, was completed.
