I love my not a roomba but some other variety of robotic vacuum. I just sit and watch it do my least favorite chore.
We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Yay old glasses and new roomba! Hope your DH is ok, Laura.
I feel like coming back to work was a terrible mistake. Except for the getting a paycheck part, which I do need. But three days of work feels like it might actually kill me by sheer weight of stress.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ugh.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Is anyone else getting the "This is an apology call from your utility" scam a dozen times a day?

Where do you come from? Where do you go? What is your scene, baby? We just gotta know.
Oh, yes.

Haven't gotten that one. Mostly I'm hearing the car insurance ones that all mispronounce "warranty" that same way.

I keep getting "someone in your family recently stayed at (some hotel)" and blah blah.

I don't know what spam calls I'm getting, because I have a spam blocker. But I do know the number has gone from 1–2 a week to 6–7 a day. They show up on my phone as "potential spam" and I don't answer. I figure if it's a real person who really wants to talk to me, they can leave a message.

I don't hear past the first recorded word, but my sister got 3 'your social security number has been cancelled' calls in one day last week.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
We have Caller ID, so we don't answer if we don't recognize the number. Sometimes it even says Spam? before the ID.
