Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Art Crawl!!!

Did not watch the Oscars.

Did watch Luck and the Walking Dead.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Is it a holiday in the US or something? Where is everyone?

Staggering around suffering from Coffee Conundrum.

I think Jesse's usually a First Responder so I'll just presume she's in a meeting, or busy taking a flat iron to her hair.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

We were post-gaming the Oscars. My one coworker liked it! Especially Billy Crystal! I don't think we can be friends any more.

Can't get the coffee started without having coffee?

The last time I bought coffee beans, I tried the new Starbucks blond roast. To me, it's like liquid speedballs. If I finish my one cup in the morning, I am a jittery, anxious mess. It sort of helps with sleepiness, but mostly it makes me both wired and tired. I am not loving it.

I am awake! Shockingly, even before my friend! It's almost 9am here. But almost 7 to our bodies. I brushed my teeth and am now trying to decide if I have energy to make breakfast or just want to head straight to the pool.

...oh but I'll need sunscreen help, so breakfast it is.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I dressed lightly because it's a beautiful day outside, only to find that my windowless office is freezing cold! So now I'm shivering and clutching my coffee, trying to warm up.

not your mom's socks.

My coffee was broken this morning. So I have had my cup of it, and am still one with the gronk.

This seems unfair.

No coffee for me. . . I predict a headache.

Wait. I think I have some instant.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I should be working on my resume, but instead I'm having second breakfast. I was so burned out in my last job, I don't want to think about what I was doing there!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I can thank Meryl Streep's win and my decision to pick her at the last minute.

DH pooh-poohed me when I said she'd win because they LURVE her, but I was right! Poor Glenn Close, she's never won, has she?
