I had to tell my parents they have old people's computer problems -- they click on every damn thing that pops up saying it will fix things.
And Kaylee, what the hell's goin' on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
old people's computer problems
Ha!
I just finished watching the most recent Criminal Minds. Tore me up.

It's true, though! My mother pointed out she doesn't have room to learn all this new stuff, which is fair. (And frankly, if my mother's going to take senior discounts, I figure I can call her old...)

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Do libraries just let kids borrow anything?
yup.
and there was a very long post her, but the jist. Libraries are not trying to hide what your children are reading from you. But I won't tell you much over the phone.
Do you know how many kids aren't allowed to read non-school books durrng the school year?

Ugh indeed, Sophia. That bites. Especially the stuff about phrasing. Yeesh.
Oh yeah: on Thursday I did go in to my less crazy manager and say, "So, I'm going on this trip, then? 'Cause nobody told me." She had the grace to look embarrassed, and agreed that I shouldn't have found out in an email, and asked if I could go. So, fine. Ish. I'm still going to give psycho manager a hard time about it at some opportune moment. Ideally in a meeting. (I found out later that psycho pissed someone else off with that email, too, so... nice job, there.)
Anyway, Sophia, if your boss needs to know what real passive-aggressive behavior looks like, I'll be giving demonstrations for the foreseeable future.

Jesse, that's funny!
I have a zit or infected follicle on my sitter. OK, outside of my thigh, just so it gets pressed on no matter how I sit. It hurts. Stupid weird body.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
I think she really did wear the dress to parties and such later, like she said she would.
Hey, so did I! Wore it to the SFF2F as well as several weddings. I still have it, still wear it. It was like $98.
I think that weddings are often treated as primarily for other people (non-bride and groom people), which is why I never wanted one and didn't have one.

Sophia, that bites ass. At least you will have documentation, I guess?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh, you and Sparky both in your wedding dresses at the Prom! That was so cool.
