You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

Our wings are not tired.

Good to see your font, tommy. My concern for the House and Senate is as great or greater than over the presidency. The determination to obstruct Clinton will be worse than with Obama. This is why it is so important to somehow keep the Sanders crowd going to vote. They will pull along the other races. Alas, I hear way too many say they will refuse to vote in November if Sanders isn't on the ticket. Sigh.

I'll be there no matter who is on the ticket! Haven't missed one yet.

Nice productivity, Matt. I worked and watched movies. Jumanji and Jurassic Park. Neither required my full attention so were good background entertainment.

Lovely, Matt.

Sorry to hear about the depression, tommyrot. Always nice to see you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just did my taxes, which took less than an hour for state and federal. So that's nice.

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

So did I! And it took less than an hour for my e-file to get approved by the IRS.

Me too! Now I wait for them to take their $32 back.

I am impressed by the both of you! I was literally lying down thinking about whether I want to get up and do something the whole time you did your taxes. Conclusion not really reached, yet, btw. I only got up because someone knocked on my door, but it was just an Amazon Sunday delivery. I may go back to lying down.

We do have three hours on you... I should really get outside, since it's nice out, so I guess that's next.

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

Today is my last (of 4) days off this month so I slept in. It looks like next month I'll have 6 or 7 days off, but one of those is a vacation day I'm taking so I can have a 3-day weekend. I should get out and accomplish some stuff now.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Yesterday ate all my productivity. Today I just want to nap.

I've gotten as far as deciding I definitely want a cup of coffee, but not as far as actually making it. Gonna be a tough day, productivity-wise.
