» Yesterday my period arrived just before I left work to take my two hour commute to the island. Sigh.
» Today, the underwire in my bra popped and tried to kill me. Sigh.

REMIX! Looks like signups are opening soon!
» From the AV Club:
The Full Boyle: Guys who don’t hear “no” just aren’t funny anymore: The day of the Nice Guy is over by Genevieve Valentine. I really liked this essay, and when I read it yesterday, the comments were still mostly weighted towards non-sucky, though I wouldn't wade into them now.

The NY Mets and
Dylan O'Brien discuss the possibility of him throwing out the first ball at a game sometime this season, since he is a long-suffering Mets fan.
amberlynne has already informed me that if this happens, we are going. I am okay with that. I am unfortunately familiar with the existential futility of being a Mets fan.
» I've been looking at reviews of Cap 2, and I have to say, I think most of them - even the reviews that are positive - seem to have missed the ENTIRE EMOTIONAL POINT of the movie, which is ALL STEVE'S BUCKY FEELS. I don't think you need to ship them to get that, but maybe you do.
» I texted
this bit of culinary brilliance to my niece and her immediate response was "Genius! Let's do it!" so I will report back when we have tested it out.
» Yesterday at work, we were informed that they'd be paying us for the week we were furloughed last summer. An extra paycheck! \o/ I might complain about NNP sometimes, because I really am kind of underemployed there, but they do try to treat us well.
» Earlier, I cleared out all the books and some clothes in my bedroom here. We're on the way now towards getting my dad moved into my sister's and selling this house, but good lord, there is a lot of stuff to go through. Three less bags of books and one less bag of clothes now though.
» Let's end on a more upbeat note: also from AV Club:
Elegance meets feistiness in the Astaire-Rogers musicals by Gwen Ihnat, which is great because it includes clips of the dances she's writing about.
