If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Glasses and coffee, two things you can't find/get unless you already have them.

Cash, I'll be that did him a world of good. Good for connections.

The missing glasses conundrum reminds me of the time I was frantically running around the bedroom, trying to find my phone to turn off the alarm. Bedsheets, clothes pillows strewn everywhere in my frenzy. Phone was in my back pocket.

Thanks for the happy wishes! Delightful day so far, visited with cousin and aunt this morning after farmers market. Lunch now, fondue tonight!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Happy birthday, JenP! I had a lovely time at the dinner you organized on my birthday-may your day be just as good or better!

I am thankful that I have spare glasses from zenni so I've always got *some* glasses where they're supposed to be and immediately available. Even if they're not my "good" glasses, they're good enough to enable me to find my good glasses.

It's good to hear you were able to visit your brother, Cashmere. It must have been a comfort to him in such a hard time.

What is even happening?

I got to see my brother in person yesterday, even though the jail suspended in person visits. Turns out we grew up with one of the corrections officers in charge of the jail and she made it happen.

I'm glad, Cashmere. How is he?

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

It's good you got to see your brother, Cashmere.

Happy Birthday, JenP! Sounds like it's a good one!

I just got a 10% raise! When I took this job, the salary was significantly lower than my previous job, but previous job worked in the oil industry. But it's been a year, and my boss successfully made the case to the CEO that I bring a lot of value. Customers seem to like documentation they can actually read.

Jesus Christ, why are there fighter jets flying so close? Is it because of fleet week? Fuck you, Blue Angels! Why are you freaking me out, setting off car alarms, and probably traumatizing dogs?
