I mean, let's say you did kill us. Or didn't. There could be torture. Whatever. But somehow you found the goods. What would your cut be?

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

Inspired by previous conversation, I'm on Ancestry.com and I'm so frustrated. Now I remember why I quit using it before. I found my father in the 1930 Census - he was 7 - and I'm trying to get information on his first marriage. I entered all the information I have on him, and it's returning thousands of search results from everywhere, like Australia and Wales, places where I know he never went, and nothing from Michigan or any state where I know he lived. So in order to get more information, apparently I need to have more information.

And they don't have any census information after 1930. Shoot, the census was the only useful thing I ever found!

Coding and Sleeping

I have a grammar question. When should I capitalize, well, not names exactly, but references to people. I think I have it but I wanted to check.

Names, easy enough, always capitalize.

Could you get that for me, Jim?

Specific nicknames, the same as names, got that too.

Could you get that for me, Fuzzface?

Terms of endearment, non specific, so not capitalized. Right?

Could you get that for me, dear?

Non-specific nicknames also not capitalized. Right?

Could you get that for me, pipsqueak?

Non-specific references also not capitalized. Right?

Could you get that for me, young man?
Could you get that for me, girl?

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

OMG these panties (on a model, so check who's watching over your shoulder) are so cute! If they didn't look like they'd totally show through most everything I own, I'd be tempted to get them. Okay, they're also pretty pricey. These would be great period panties, except not in white...

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

liese stole all the productivity.

Sorry! I also did payroll liabilities, shredded and filed, and watered the plants.

If it's any consolation, I'm still behind overall, but I'm making progress, finally!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

That's a cute cat.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Very cute kitty!

Aw, he looks like a great cat! Bonus: all the fur on your clothes will match! (Also, be prepared to not be sure which one is harassing you in the middle of the night!)

I'm working on my second load of laundry, have swum and all my necessary shopping. Which means tomorrow is discretionary! So...maybe taxes and shopping for luggage and a camera.

And now I shall do my nails.
