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!
You guys had a riot? On account of me? A real riot?

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.

Punishingly Intricate
So sorry about your uncle, Dana

Our wings are not tired.
I'm sorry for your loss and the crap filled week, Dana.

The brand new house A/C died? That is extremely rude.

One of the nice things our Real Estate agent did for us as a New Homeowners Present was to buy us a small insurance policy that covered the breakdown of any appliance (A/C, Dishwasher, Dryer, Stove etc.) in the house for one year.
