No McDonald's??? How is that kid ever supposed to trust authority figures?
Yeah, she'll end up being a damn-cynical kindergartener....

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I don't have a cellphone. Not even a deactivated one.

Try breathing through your nose. Or applying an ice pack to your head. Both cool the brain down and the brain being warm is what seems to cause yawning...this is what I learned in the Sun paper this morning.
What I learned this afternoon is lemon tartlette from Bonaparte Breads is sweet and tart and deeelicious!

Here's something I didn't know: By law, a deactivated cellphone must still be able to call 911.
Apparently, this is true for regular phone lines too. We don't have an active landline, but my housemate has a phone hooked up to our jack just to call 911 in an emergency.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That's interesting. I wonder if I'll remember it in an actual emergency? (I have a phone jack and a phone, but no landline service.)
Speaking of phones, I've been putting off making three phone calls all day. One of the people called me herself, but no way will either of the other two. Ah well.
I am so unbelievably bored right now. It's like, there's not enough time left in the week to start anything major, and every other task I have is boring and/or unpleasant. Good times.

and now you are yawning due to that thing where our ancient ancestors yawned contagiously in order to keep the group alert in case of danger! In this case "group" = Sun readers.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Why is it not even lunchtime yet???
Life sucks. If life were fair, it's be closer to 5pm.
