Right now, the standard response around here to " I got jury duty summons" is widening eyes and "Freddie Gray?"

So I'm going to let you all practice being Baltimoreans:

I got jury summonses for February 4.

For reals.

I'd recommend department store or maybe Land's End, for swimsuits?

Am making molasses cookies, because I had the ingredients.

Well, sara, that'd be one way to not deal with work for a while. Not really a RECOMMENDED way, but...

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I got jury summonses for February 4.

Oh, man.

I'd recommend department store or maybe Land's End, for swimsuits?

I know some (maybe all?) Sears department stores have a Lands End section, although at this time of year, the Lands End section probably doesn't have swimsuits in-store.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Had a potluck holiday party at work. I made pasta salad. Alas, I wasn't the only one, and ended up taking most of it home. (There wasn't a sign-up sheet.)

I'm getting ideas from Ravelry, and they're suggesting Land's End or Swimsuits for All from online. My current measurements list is at home, so ordering is delayed.

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

Connie, Vegas might be a good place to buy a swimsuit. A bit of a gamble, I guess, but shopping is one of the things they are a destination for, right?

One of these days I am going to go the airport with just the clothes on my back and a credit card or several and find a cheap flight to somewhere where I can buy everything I need there. Or maybe train station if I have enough time. I can walk to the train station. That just sounds so freeing.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Ginger commented, when we were in the air and I was fussing over having left something unpacked, "My father always said, 'They sell underwear where we're going.'"

Not the first time I'd heard it, but the first time it really made sense to me. Thank you, Ginger.

My shoulders unknotted today for the first time since I got the shitty work news. Like, I'd only recently made the connection, but figured part of it was bad stroke form. Yeah, no. I woke up with kinks. After my conversation with C, dissolved.
