Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

More update: the bride commented and said, "I got married. I know it's strange, but it felt right and I'm very happy."

I fully admit that I'm still wondering if it's an elaborate prank, but I'm going to go ahead and congratulate her anyway.

(I can't begin to understand her personal life; in October she and her live-in boyfriend of 4 years broke up, and 2 months later the boyfriend was engaged to a new girlfriend who's 16 years younger than him, and then the bride in question quickly got back together with a long-ago ex, who she apparently just married. I need a diagram to keep it all straight.)

Also not an April Fool's joke: My regular bar for the last ten years is closing! I am seriously bummed about this, there are no other cool bars in my neighborhood!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, my god, sans-serif fonts. How is it possible for someone to consistently type a capital I when they mean lower-case l? Why do I have to keep changing things into Times New Roman to double-check the freaking letter? How is this my life?

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

I've decided to just watch it unfold without commenting. (Which, in the end, may make me a dick for not offering congratulations on a real wedding

You can always blame the algorithm for not showing you the post right away.

I need to post about a bunch of gear the theatre is giving away but I'm afraid people will think it's a joke.

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

I have a friend who got married on All Fool's Day. In her verifiable defense, I was chief bridesmaid.

Also pre-FB.

You know there are some people who get married on April 1st (or Halloween)? They are definitely those people.

DON'T MARRY AN IMPROVISER, FOLKS.

I was prepared to give an update at a meeting this morning, but of course it ran long and they didn't get to me. I guess I could email the update, but I'm feeling vaguely indignant because I actually did a thing! I got something done! I'm totally doing stuff, guys!

I am awaiting details.
