    Playing my usual real estate wanderlust and chuckling at the floor plan of a multi-million dollar 3 bedroom duplex in Tribeca; who puts the toilet and bathtubs right in front of a window? And what is up with these deep stand alone tubs? (select Master bathroom after that link) Not everyone is built like a denizen from Camino. Sheesh. I shudder to think of my feet being in casts because I broke every toe getting in and out of the tub, to say nothing of my nose.

    So this 3M microfiber cloth I bought leaves lint on my iPad instead of removing it. Yeah, that works correctly.

    So I'm waiting on an Amazon UK delivery - which in my area is usually delivered by a person in a white van - and the neighbors are having work done on their heating. The street in front of my place looks like a used van lot. Every time I hear a van door slam I think it might be for me and it isn't.

    Can't decide if I want bagels or a decent loaf of broad instead.

    Was about to make a crack about the Auto-Correct in Penguinator's post, but my retort has more holes than a bagel. :p

    Cute animal videos.

    Since we moved out of the city 2 years ago, my daughter has befriended every animal in the local ecosystem. She has squirrels who eat out of her hands, knows the name of every dog in the neighborhood and I am quite certain she mouth-feeds all of the nearby baby birds and can summon hawks to land on her arm. Anyhow... we live across from a lovely little old cemetery. For a few nights in a row, she has been going across to the cemetery. I had assumed she was pursuing perfectly normal 8 year old goals such as graverobbing or a seance. Alas, no. Thanks to videos of adorable raccoons in birthday hats eating cake and raccoons relaxing on a raft in a pool and raccoons opening Christmas gifts alongside some human family, my daughter (who has more than earned her nickname of Dilemma) has been attempting to befriend a local trash panda.

    If she's that much into animals you should aim her toward something like veterinary school..

    Life sucks and then we die and we should all follow @appleseed's advice and just all shoot ourselves in the head because there is no hope.

    [face_rofl] Local Trash Panda...

    Seriously, though, she should have met the raccoons that were the size of small dogs that were all wolverine-like and territorial in the tree next door. They were frakking nasty and scary. Growling and tearing at each other. And huge. My mom was trapped in her car during one brawl session as the tree was right above her.

    Hopefully, Ms. Chorus will meet Casper the friendly ghost in the cemetery and that will nix her fasciation with the trash panda.

    Juliet316 - Oh I would only do that if the person next to me was a zombie. Then I'd take George Romero's immortal line of "Shoot it man. Shoot it in the head!" to heart, or to rifle or something.

    I woke up with bug bites in three different areas of my body. I'm not so much bothered by the bites themselves as much I just feel so violated. There I was, asleep and totally vulnerable, and this bug decided to just have its way with me and did.

    I wish the veggie pizza I had earlier was one of many in my freezer, instead of one of two. Wait, wasn't One of Two in Star Trek? Darn you, pizza cravings!

    I appreciate the alternative opportunity you offered her. Alas, too late. Contact was made with the trash panda. Its adorable little hands reached up and took a slice of vegan pizza from her. Due to this, I am now incapable of making any case about the potential danger. The trash panda won. It can now maul my daughter at will. It is her father, now.

    I've got a repeat of yesterday's problem. Amazon UK split my order so part 2 is due today and the same van crew are parked in front. I think they are packing up now - there's been quite a bit of door slamming in the last few minutes.

    I got a lease renewal notice which including an increase in rent. Pissed, I looked up prices in the places around me with the idea I would take lower prices in and tell them not to raise my rent. Uh...all the other places have even higher rent than i will be paying. [face_phbbbbt]

    Whatever is going on with Blac Chyna and Rob Kardashian, which I could give a rat's behind about, except for the fact that it broke Twitter.

    It is 8:30 PM, and the heat index here is 99 degrees.

    What.
