Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

Did she leave a message that said more than "Call me"? Did she leave a message at all? If there was no message or text, then the threat level goes way down.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm not married, but that sounds really unrealistic. I AM a manager, and expect my staff not to take personal calls in meetings unless their baby is in surgery or similar.

No, no message.

I called back again and things were much better. I think she was just really upset at our daughter and I my not answering the phone just made things blow up. So maybe just my overreaction.

One of my co-worker's kids frequently calls her at work. I hear her say "Honey, you know I'm at work, you can't keep calling me. You know you're not allowed to watch TV until your homework is done, Grandma is right. I have to go. Crying's not going to help."

I've never regretted not having kids. I'm glad much more capable Buffistas have taken up the challenge.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Someone is texting me, in Spanish, about coming to pick up the hamsters.

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

I almost feel bad for Christie. Almost.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Everything is bullshit and I want to play some video games, y'all.

(The preceding outburst was brought to you by a weird vestibular migraine [lots of dizziness and brain fog; no head pain] and SUPER jackass authors.)

(I mean old-school video games, BTW. We have a barcade in my neighborhood and I want to play some Frogger.)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I was fairly proud that I understood everything except "recojer". Also, the Spanish word for hamsters is "hamsters."

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

They're from South America, hamsters, aren't they?

Frogger sounds fun.

Poor Walter. I forgot my badge this morning, and I ran home on my lunch break to get it. W as fast asleep when I got there but woke up in time to stand forlornly at the door when I left without him. Tough being the dog.
