Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I have enough trouble dealing with Nova sometimes. I'm certainly not getting into it with a wild animal.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

I'm getting really tired of this cycle.

1. Something scary happens with the virus.

2. Scientists say "It's not actually that scary and here is why."

3. I sit, slightly nauseated, trying to figure out how I should feel.

Same, Dana.

I, uh, loaded up on more vegetables than I probably should have bought all at the same time on Tuesday, so I've resorted to meal-planning to 1) avoid food waste, and 2) eat the way I'd prefer to be eating rather than the way I have been eating. It's kind of annoying how much this has really helped with the exhaustion and indecision that comes when I stare into the open refrigerator and have no idea what sounds good. Instead, I just make what I said I would make for the meal.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

We have index cards with meals we eat on them, so we can draw 5 or so a week and that's what we're eating. Many fewer decisions, and which we pick on a given night often depends on what needs to be used soonest.

I feel like standing in front of a refrigerator figuring out what to eat while you're hungry has got to be a standard Bad Place punishment.

Next time I catch myself doing it, I'll be obligated to say, "THIS is the Bad Place."

I had a job interview today! I presented myself as a professional!

As the parent of a 5 month old dog who is currently medium sized I am fairly sure she could take me in a fight if she wanted to. She is less than 50 pounds but incredibly strong and the TEETH.

Excellent! They should hire you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Do you want the job, flea?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

There's an A Winter's Tale joke here somewhere ("Exit, pursued by a bear), but I can't quite get there.

I made a bear once. They bought a giant bear, unstuffed it, and couldn’t figure out why a person could not get into the destuffed bear. Please note that people have shoulders and stuffed bears do not have shoulders.
