Always Anti-fascist!

As far as stairs, is this where I get to be all "Tried to tell y'all," because I'd like to see them eradicated.(I won't get to, but not from lack of trying.) Shir,,,don't worry about it. I think I've been struggling, but nothing compared to what you have faced.

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

Nomenclature question: if I mix together garbanzo beans, kidney beans, and green beans, do I have Three Bean Salad? Is it more specific than that? Or less?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Makes me think of Justin Wilson's line: What goes in it? Whatever you got.

Thrive to spite them

JenP I'm sorry about your ankle.

Dana when I had to have my head MRI the tech put a cloth over my eyes . And then when I had my neck MRi I had them do that and I had ear plugs. And that really helped .

Onorous tasks done ! We went to 2nd and Charles (used books, physical media, pop culture stuff ) as a reward and because I had $5 off that expired soon...I thought. It expired on the 6th. This is the second time I messed up. They need to send texts not emails .

Anyway ahead of us we're these two girls that looked like they were teens. Maybe early 20s and they were looking for My Chemical Romance on vinyl. I guess they wanted to find out before looking through all the records.

I got some cheap paperbacks to take to the beach to read and leave there.

Sounds like a fun place to poke around, askye. Congrats on completed tasking!

Shir, so good to see you here and totally understandable that it's not as frequently as you might like. I wish we could fix this fucking timeline right effing now.

My brother was recently telling me that he was doing the Justin Wilson "On-yon" etc thing while sous cheffing or whatever you call it and his younger co-workers had no familiarity at all

Still mindful to use Jillifont when necessary.'

And boy howdy, do I appreciate it.

I'm cranky and don't want to do any of the annoying manager things, like fighting with our HR software for writing reviews or writing status reports to send to executives. What I really want is a nap, but that's not going to happen.

For those who know tarot, the card I pulled today was 10 of Wands, which is about overextending and burnout. Good to know my subconscious and the Powers That Be want to drop pianos on my head.

Can't I just spend the day obsessively rewatching the teaser trailer for s3 of Interview with the Vampire/The Vampire Lestat? That would make me less cranky.
