Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

Ha, I floated the idea of taking the train to the tournament to Mom and she’s down, so I guess I’m doing this. Not sure if she will come to the tournament or stop off and visit my nephew for the weekend, we will figure that out on Thursday…

Woo- hoo!

Or should I say, "Choo-choo!"

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I wish to register my objection to today's Wordle.

That which does not kill you should RUN

I wish to register my objection to today's Wordle.

I got it, but only because I guessed it just to see if Wordle even considered it a word. WTF, Wordle?

Wow I failed connections (after getting yellow and purple!) and then almost failed wordle too (there was only 1 answer left after my third guess! And my fourth guess. And my fifth guess. Neither of which were things I thought were words)

Punishingly Intricate

I slept all morning trying to get over this fucking cold. But it meant I read the hints here and that helped inform my Wordle approach

Did get the Wordle, but, come on, that ain't right
