Gronklies!

I was very gronky indeed this morning, so much so that I was just this side of dizzy. However caffeine, acetaminophen and food, and a dose of last night's Daily Show ("This Week in God" -- always a great segment) have rendered me at least passably coherent....

What is even happening?

For the record, I'm here on the weekend, and Sunday is a fast and I'm already getting thirsty from just thinking about it, so I may not be the right person to ungronkify a person. And "ungronkify" is not even the word I was looking for on the former sentence. Hmm. Maybe "chocolate" is the word.

1) Easy fast to you, Nilly.

2) Yes. Chocolate.

3) More chocolate.

4) De-gronk, or de-gronkify is what I would use. Ungronk implies there was no gronk. To degronk(ify) is to remove said gronk, or at least subdue it.

5) Chocolate.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hope your fast is OK, Nilly. And the weekend is better.

Made it to work in a zombie-like state. At least today I get to sit in an Actual Office with a computer facing away from the door. Right on.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Gronk. Yes, gronk.

Timelies, but luckily nsm with the gronk.

Just confirmed a reservation for a truck so I can pick up a couch and a grill (and possibly an additional AC unit) from some friends who are passing them along. Whee! Furniture! And room for the furniture! And a place to put a grill!
