Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

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

Timelies all!

I am tired. In other news, water is wet and fire is hot.

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

-t, I think you're onto something...

-t, nice one! Yeah I saw that today, and I was so confused. Apple in my coffee? Thank you, no.

Our wings are not tired.

My strong tendency to never leave the house is seriously reinforced.

More so every day!

My strong tendency to never leave the house is seriously reinforced.

A thousand times this.

In other news, I'm inheriting more workflows from someone going on leave. I'm now the single owner for all global workflows for a product, ha ha! I'm not going to hold anyone hostage by threatening to rage quit, but I'm not NOT going to do that.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

My head is all stuffy today after flying home from Vermont yesterday, but I'm 98% sure it's caused by returning to Cincinnati ragweed pollen and a cat that insists on being a walking allergen. I'm only 2% paranoid that it's a cold. I am 0% paranoid it's Covid.

Also, does Bernie Sanders fly commercial airlines? Because our flight yesterday was from Burlington into DC, and I would swear he was on our flight (although it's hard to tell when half a person's face is covered by a mask).

I would expect he does, Teppy—I feel like most politicians do and he especially it would be a bad look to be like, chartering flights?

I got my Pfizer booster today. 6 months +1day after my second dose.

Go invincibility! With all the travel you do I am grateful you have that booster in your immunity bank.

Need to make serious plans to head south. 34F outside this morning, and a whopping 47 inside. Not upstairs where I had the heater running, but I don't have them going downstairs while I am sleeping. All running now! Yes, I am well bundled and comfy enough, but I don't want to have my water freeze.

Silly cats still insisted on going outside this morning! I'll check often to see if they are ready to come back inside.
