I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Sorry y'all went through that, Rick, but I'm so glad it wasn't worse! Always nice to see your pixels

Yikes Rick—but glad it turned out well as could be I guess?

I’m baffled how Seattle has just almost as high of vaccination rates as San Francisco but still has so many more cases per capita!! (Apropos of Hec posting about it on fb)

Also, I still love the pumpkin cream cheese Trader Joe’s has, but my stomach may not love it as much as in the past. They don’t sell cinnamon sugar pita chips anymore so I decided to dip ginger cookies in it, and it was good and I maybe ate too many and now feel gross

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

One would think that ginger cookies would be self-correcting tummy ache wise...

Maybe it's Oregon's fault! As much as I love my birth-state, it does share a border and sensibility with Idaho, and there are a lot of right wing refuseniks on the Eastern side.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Good luck, Rick.

Glad the mammo results were good, -t!

All hail, Pumpkin Cream Cheese!

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

Timelies all!

Day 1 of getting Mr. S to school went well. I hope the rest of the week goes as well.(Silly boy left his lunch bag at school. Oh, well, I guess we'll have to use Gary's insulated bag tomorrow.)

Oh I would definitely blame Idaho before Oregon, but I was looking at the Seattle-specific (or well, King County) stats, they’re generally way better than the rest of the state. Our surge seems to be going down but not as quickly as one might like.

I’m taking tomorrow off work, because I have some vacation days to burn. So far my plan is get up at mostly the regular hour, drop dog at daycare, go to the bougie bakery, and maybe go hike to a lake? Supposedly a pretty easy 4 mile round trip. Not sure if I want to plan to bring lunch or just snacks. May go classic PB&J. Then I’m thinking a Costco run? Not sure what else. In the evening I have an outdoor happy hour.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

If I were well enough to drive the 7 hours down there, I would do it just to slap them all in their stupid faces.

The singing telegram industry should pivot to fill this sort of role. Maybe instead of slapping they could toss a bucket of Lysol on them.
