I need some rain barrels. I keep looking for end-of-season sales.
Ginger, have you checked Craigslist? [link]
Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

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 had, but not in the last few weeks. Thanks! One guy has a really good deal on the barrels per se.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I can hear support over the cube wall trying to explain the @ symbol to the person on the phone. It's taking entirely too long. He's been going for two minutes. Technically, "over the 2" should work, no? If you've somehow lived under a rock and never heard an email address spelt out?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
No tears from Sara this morning! I'm celebrating with PopTarts.
Yeah! Go, Sara!
Today was the first day of school for the new year at Matilda's pre-school. She's graduated up in their marine-themed schema and is now a Stingray.
She was starting to get anxious about the change yesterday but both JZ and I took her in this morning and we whipped her up into a proper frenzy of excitement that it was a Special Day and that seemed to work.
So now all the little transitional weeks before new school years for Emmett and Matilda are done and the school year is officially started.
Next year she's in kindergarten which will be a trickier transition and I am not looking forward at all to the torturous school placement process of the SFUSD.

Oooh, aren't you fancy with your technical precision and clarity.

NO SHE IS NOT. SHE IS A BABY. OBVIOUSLY.
Well, in three weeks she'll be a four year old baby with strongly held opinions about Wonder Woman and Voldemort which is kind of stretching the definition of "baby."
If it's any consolation, though, her hairline around her face is still pretty wispy and baby-like.

In my experience, People Who Don't Get Computer Stuff just want to know what buttons to press. This person probably can't even see their monitor because it's covered in post-it notes listing key-sequences for complicated tasks like Opening A Word Document and Getting To A Web Page.
