Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

6 mopre spindles. 19 down, 34 to go. I was going to apply more goo, but given how my hands and wrists hurt, I think I need to give 'em a break. All sweaty and gross now. Will rinse off before going to bed on my clean sheets.

Actually had a couple hours doing NOTHING today (while laundry dried.) Took a catnap with Loki and MK, returned something to Target and got a couple of these for my bathroom storage [link] (there isn't room for much else. Really need to put up shelves if I could just find what I want.)

msbelle, glad the numbers look a little better. I'm skimming really close this month because of plane tickets and the doors and of course, $60 gallons of paint stripper and scrapers and gloves and plastic and and and. Do not like.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

What? Apparently I can't run my microwave and my Foreman grill at the same time. Pops the fuse. Which is the same fuse at the TiVo, so I'm glad I found out now, and not during recording of a show.

meara, did the woman know he was trans?

I have to turn off the ac in my bedroom to dry my hair. I can run the vacuum, though, which I find interesting since that + micro was always a killer in my old apartment. But then, while there have been some upgrades to the electrical in this house, it probably wasn't done THAT recently.

...I'm certain they knew he was born female. I'm not actually certain they're aware he identifies as male, for that matter (ETA: as in they may have just thought "v. butch girl", which is what the other member of our party besides me was, er, and then the straight guy who was their DD when they arrived to the club, because they were both wasted). He works in Argentina, and dances as a girl there.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Msbelle- I know you will be able to work the money thing out It is great that your parents want to and can help.

Does anyone else play bejeweled blitz on Facebook? Is there any way to turn off the sound. I do not do well with the beeping telling me it is time to end-- I freeze. Also, I know have Ballroom Blitz stuck in my head.

How very confusing.

I was told my cousin doesn't tell women he dates that he's trans. Which? I know it's awkward, but you don't have boy parts. I'd rather know sooner than later.

Washing my hands kinda hurts. But the coconut lime verbena soap smells really nice.

...yeahhhhhh, that's awkward. Cause, then when DO you tell them? Though I guess I know some folks who do that. But still.

I think I'm going to make this for dinner: [link]

But with orzo rather than on toast, for I have none.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Swam. Spent nearly an hour watering the plants with a watering can (saves water). It's not my beautiful beautiful garden that I miss so much but I do get some sort of tranquility out of even this suburban "let's look nice for the neighbors" kind of garden. Though it makes me mad to see all the cigarette butts my smoking brother tosses onto the lawn and the plants. Why do smokers think those aren't trash?

Worked so hard watering and picking up trash that I may need to go swimming again just to cool off.

Buffistas seem to be having bad fuse~ma.
