A coworker asked me why I didn't call the police and his insurance right away. As much grace as people have given me when I was a terrible, dumbass driver the very least I could do was pay it forward.

Very kind and generous of you, askye. Sweethearted.

I really appreciate that perspective askye. We need more of that in the world.

Also of this. I just stumbled across this website with historically inspired footwear and I am drooling. What time is that Powerball drawing? Because I’m looking at approximately all of these. [link]

I do need to call my insurance. There is a dent right about the wheel. But I hate to but I need to get the paint fixed

Today I was telling a coworker (who I'm honestly not found of but I have to work with her a lot so I try) and she kept going on about how livid she would be and how she would chew the kid out. And what would that accomplish?

Although there was a time when I probably would have gone off on the kid. But I was thinking about E and all the Buffista kids and how I would hate for them to deal with someone losing it over something minor.

I did leave work early. Because on top of that I got my flu vaccine on my lunch break and somehow the pharmacist hit a tiny vein and I bled some. Got on my shirt and I had to get it re bandaged. But it's fine and the pharmacist is a sweetheart and checked in with me yesterday and also today .

So I left early and went to Five Below and bought the Breyer unicorns they have. And the Scheich unicorn. I didn't know that brand but they do model animals and unicorns and are more affordable than Breyer Search: 108 results found for "unicorn" [link] They have all kinds of animals like cats and monsters and dinosaurs and -- llamacorns! Search: 2 results found for "unicorn llama" [link]

I showed that to M and he said we definitely need the llamacorns.

I have a shelf in the living room that has been a catch all and I'm going to turn it into a Unicorn Uptopia.

I am on my way back to Pigeon Forge today. Already 90 minutes into my flight to Dallas. This go around I'm out for three weeks. Two in Pigeon Forge followed by a week in Boise. I have had way too much time on the road this year.

Travel~ma, ND.

Sorry about the car stuff, askye.

Today I’m going to a potluck for my community garden. We’re all supposed to make something from what we grew in our gardens. Luckily one of my butternut squash ripened just in time, so I’ll be making squash in puff pastry. It’s a gorgeous late summer day here, and I’m looking forward to socializing with people I’m not related to. I love living close to family, but sometimes you want to chat with people who didn’t see your awkward pre-teen years, ya know?

Ohhh that sounds yummy! I get the socializing thing

Hey ND! You'll be a few hours from me. I hope your stay is nice and the weather cooperates with everything.

Beginning to suspect I need a book: What To Expect When You're Digesting(if you write it and sell a million copies, I do want on the Acknowledgements page, though.) On the nightmarish side cycling from "Can't get started," to "Can't stop," especially in my position.

Say hi to Dolly, ND!

I kept my cool a few years ago when a lady ran into the front of my car while I was stopped at a stop sign, so I'm pretty sure I would for a parking lot scrape. My big litmus tests are if anyone was hurt or if lives were endangered through stupidity.

That Bengals game was INSANE.

Tats a long time to be on the road, ND! Good luck.

My friends and I went to the night market last night and sadly my stomach has been rejecting it since shortly after we got home. I am glad it waited until we got home though? But ugh.
