Oh, good, my friend is up and has keys, so I will be able to get lunch. Yay for food!
Now to see what's open this afternoon...
Gunn: We open a can of Machiavelli on his ass. Harmony: It's Matchabelli, Einstein, and it doesn't come in a can.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Ugh, noisy people leaving a birthday party next door kept me up until 3 am (the host ended the party at 1:30, which isn't super unreasonable for college kids on a weekend, but apparently loud sorority girls and exiting stairwells don't mix). I was tempted to fill a bucket up and start dousing people with water to make them go the fuck home.
But at least it resulted in me being outside at the right time to find out the restaurant next door was out of cat food, and getting to pet most of the resident alley cats while feeding them.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Jeez, my sinuses are really hating this weather.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I just did the work I should have been doing at the end of the day yesterday, so that's nice. I need to do some more, but probably tomorrow.

In continuing "heroin is bad and too close to my life" news, two people overdosed in a bathroom at my workplace at the end of the day yesterday. They were successfully Narcan-ed.
The letter p in this post was brought to you by Jesse's post above, and cut-and-paste.

It's coming down kind of steady in Somerville now! I just checked the app, and I'd be making 2.5 surge prices if I felt like driving tonight. (But, as has been proved, you really can't pay me enough for that.)
I made my saving throw to remember to bring in the car snow shovel and car snow brush, so I don't have to brush off a car door or two to access them tomorrow. Adulting for the win!

Good thing paste isn't CTRL+P?
I'm at a dance convention, but my head is killing me despite painkiller and I'm torn on what to do (there's dancing to watch, for the next few hours, then open dancing until about 6am...)

Yikes.

Also: sad because I did not do well in the dance competition. I'm in the lowest level, and didn't even make t past the first cut. You have to dance three dogs, with random people. And there are so many fewer guys (in the lower levels--the other are more even) that there were twice as many girls. And the guys don't have to be as good. :( All three of the guys I danced with made the first cut, and I didn't think they were very good! Sigh.
Also, the girl I've been dating wants to get a double lip piercing. Which I think will look stupid, and also will take weeks to heal. BOO.

Aw, that's a bummer, meara. Both things, actually.
