I don't even know what franzia is, but I know that sentence is gold.
Can't any one of your damn little Scooby club at least try to remember that I hate you all?

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

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

Construction Begins on America's First Commercial Spaceship Factory — This is possibly the most amazing headline I have ever read. I don't even care about the nuance. I just want to throw up some devil hands and party with the Jetsons.

A) How do I get a job at the Spaceship Factory? I will move for that. I could, like, sweep up after hours or something.
B) When my parents were in college they did an experiment trying to tell the difference between good wine and bad wine using mass spectrometry. Accordingly, they went to a nearby liquor store and explained how they needed exemplars, and the guy told them there were lots of options for the good wine, but for the bad wine they definitely needed Franzia.

When I was a kid, family holiday gatherings that took place at Gramma's farm always involved Mogen David wine, the only type she'd drink. Ugh. Of course, we're Irish Catholic, so wine was way down on the list of preferred potent potables, especially in the 1970s when decent affordable wine was hard to find.
I'm sooooo sleepy right now. Boss is off until Friday, and I'm just waiting for the last remaining supervisor to go home before I leave myself. I don't care if it's early, because I'm going to have several days of PTO left on December 31st that will go poof! as of midnight New Years Day.

Oh, I almost forgot - my shrink is having me switch to a different antidepressant - one that's covered by my insurance. So that's an extra $200 a month in my pocket....

Nice! Hope the transition goes smoothly so you can blow that money on moonpies and penny-whistles.

Extra money = yay!
I had an amusing phone call on my machine last night--some local Honda dealership called to see if I'd be interested in refinancing my car loan and/or trading in my car for a less expensive used one on their lot. I wrote down their phone number to call back tonight and tell them that their timing is off, since my last payment in only ten days away and then the car's all mine.
