Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Just bought my Tracfone. Found a deal with a phone that has good reviews for a basic phone, free double minutes for life, and a free accessories package. All for $20. I keep forgetting that technology marches on, and that what to me is a nifty whiz-bang, gee-whillikers gadget is considered mere training wheels to others. With commensurate price. When the rest of the world is longing for Ferraris, the person who's content with a used Honda can get a good deal.

Tom, I was just reading that. Did you see the For your consideration posters?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Sigh. The Pixar stamps look great, but part of me is still grumping, "Four stamps, nine characters, and not one of them female?" No room at all for a Violet stamp, or Ellie, or Jesse, or EVE?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Petersen museum is fun, Kat. Hmmm, thinky... will have to see what MiL's appointment schedule is like however, seeing as DH will be chauffeuring her around today.
It is WET out.
Oh Pix, about the ants, we've been invaded too. They came into out liquor cabinet, so that got cleaned out. Luckily they didn't get into any of the bottles.

Presumably the ants came up into the houses because they were trying not to drown.

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

Yeah, they could have gotten wasted and trashed your place.

Punishingly Intricate
My latest trick for getting rid of tiny ants seemed to work really well. Spraying their entrance point (if you can find it) with cider vinegar. Of course if it's unpleasant vinegar vs death by drowning they may choose vinegar.
