msbelle, I want to make a rain/pours joke but roof issues are not funny,

I just clogged Grace's g-tube. I hate when I do that. But at least I don't panic anymore. I just get extra syringes filled with hot water and I push and pull until the clog dislodges. Damn.

Amyth, yay CAR!

ita, I'm so sorry that everything is overwhelming.

Art Crawl!!!

My cat just jumped up on my keyboard and suddenly the desktop is all small. How do I get it back?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I've got a cold, and it's making my ears clogged, which is making me dizzy and nauseated. Can't I get through one semester without being sick?

I feel you, Hil. It's been one damn thing after another since October for me. And I usually only get one or two predictable colds a year. Now I add 2 ear infections, occular migraine and a scratched cornea...meh.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

My washer and dryer are in the garage.

The door to the garage is one of the monitored doors for the security system.

Any bets on how long it's going to take me to set it off?

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

I have made it into the office three days in a week. Confetti! It's a parade!

Speaking of which, which quote do you most slide into conversation in a way that they don't need to be recognised? Like, you know you're the only who gets it?

For me, it's "It's a whole different vibe." I have the entire exchanged and visuals in my head, but it's not really enough for anyone to identify as being something. Though they might start to wonder why I say exactly that. I do usually use it in the "I'm not X. I'm Y." formation also.

If I read Twitter, I'd certainly follow Simon Pegg.

I didn't call my mother, because by the time it's 9 over there, it's too much of a risk to wake her up. I'll try and get her tomorrow morning. Although I need to be spot on getting into work. 8AM meeting, all my fault. And my manager will probably kill me for it, but she can take it on the phone if she wants to.

Lee, I pay for an alarm system. Not going to mention how many times I've set it off or when I don't arm it. Really should drop it.

OMG, given the # of typos I just fixed, you'd think my eyesight is still fucked. Maybe it is, damnit.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Lee, I have an alarm system. I've set it off a few times, but it makes me feel much better when I'm here alone. If nothing else, I know no one can get into my house without me knowing it. It's worth it.

Now tagless for your comfort.

My comic book guy asked if I'd consider picking up a shift as his shop one day a week. That's like a dream come true for a geek, isn't it?

I have managed not to set it off yet, but it's also been off a lot more than it's been on.
