My massage therapist cancelled today's appointment because she feels like she's coming down with a cold or something. And while my quad muscle could have used the pummeling, I appreciate that she doesn't want to spread the plague. And I can reschedule for next week, so no big deal.
So, how was your summer? Mine was fun. Saw some fish. Went mad with hunger. Hallucinated a whole bunch.

I somehow feel worse today and am mad about it.
Boo! Here's hoping the hot and sour soup is magic today
I am having lunch related decision paralysis. Do I want a pastrami sandwich or dim sum? I feel like it's amazing I got to the point of only considering two options but I'm stuck there

Those are both fine options but I'd probably opt for the Pastrami sandwich if I was really hungry.

Ooh pastrami sandwich sounds nice. I need to go grocery shopping.
The community garden sounds so nice! We have them here called “P-patches” which I always thought was pea patches but I googled and it’s named after a family whose name started with P!

That's a nice sort of immortality (or longevity or whatever)

There are a lot of recent/potential technological developments that I'm not necessarily totally happy about, but paying for chips and soda out of the vending machine with my watch still gives me a little thrill. Douglas Adams was absolutely talking about me

OK, I got a little distracted by the footage of my senator getting manhandled and handcuffed, but, um, have pastrami sandwich now and it is indeed good

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Awesome. The country is ending. My uncle with cancer just died (not unexpected). The A/C in my goddamn new house already needs to be replaced and it's 79 degrees inside. This has not been my best week.

Oh no, Dana! I was sure having a brand new house would give you a break from things like that for a while. Argh. And sorry about your uncle.
