I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Way to go, Lee!

Give Me One Reason, the Tracy Chapman song? How is that gaslighting? The light up clothes I heard about on FB because I went to college with the woman whose company makes those (pretty much any outfit on TV that lights up is hers) and she mentioned it. I tend to like the idea of her stuff more than the actual outfits.

Sorry, flea, that's got to be tough to deal with.

Ask Touch of Honey who beat out Elvis Costello.

Still bitter about that. Seriously.

Nada surf? I've never even heard of nada surf--should I have? Am I super out of it?

Didn't Nada Surf do the Buffy theme song, or am I misremembering my 90s alt-bands?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

-t, do you know the name of that company?

Not offhand, but I'll look her up and get back to you.

Thanks, -t!

Someone is having some fun with the weather conditions. [link]

And with a current temp of -2 and wind chill of -22, police in a Chicago neighborhood are warning people to be on the lookout for a guy in a ski mask who tried to assault a woman walking her dog. Seriously?

Give Me One Reason, the Tracy Chapman song? How is that gaslighting?

Hah, no, the Pink song. The guy part sings "I'm sorry I don't understand where all of this is coming from, I thought that we were fine. Your head is running wild again my dear we still have everything and it's all in your mind. You've been having real bad dreams..." Etc.

I am awake because I could not stop coughing. Wtf, body? I was fine last night. Or at least, mostly so. Maybe just too dry in here.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's so hot here today! In the 40s.

I'm WFH today and probably will be tomorrow, and I do not want to be. But if I'm going to be trapped inside, I've decided to alternate among Getting Work Done and Cleaning All the Things and Sports Night episodes.
