Also I am partied out and am tired but still cute.
I keep forgetting that I only like Thanksgiving because I hang out with weirdos instead of actual family three or four days in a row.
And even when I'm not doing Thanksgiving with people I can celebrate "I'll cook a damned turkey and eat the whole thing in the course of a week because I really fucking like cooking and carving".

I was forced to watch Mandatory Earthquake Safety videos at work today and there was this one about what to do if you're in a car and they're like "stop the car and don't touch the outside of your car" and the woman in the video moved her hands between her legs while fake shaking outside happened.
So anyway I think I know how I'm going to die during a magnitude 9 earthquake.
LDS Missionaries
Like if they were dudes I'd be angry and use the Forbidden Southern Curse ("honey I'll pray for you") but they're not and so I'm just filled with pity.
LDS Missionaries
Just told a couple very shy and probably nice LDS ladies who knocked at my door that their church doesn't believe I should exist and hope that they would leave that abusive organization soon.
Given their horrified reactions I think they interpreted it as I'm like super excommunicated as opposed to super queer.
*clicks on an ad for cute plus sized coats*
"Hello we sell coats up to 5XL except everything above 3XL looks like crap!"
*filters to only 3XL coats maybe they'll fit*
"When we say 3XL we mean size 14 because size 14 is totally plus sized!"
*closes window, sets everything on fire, salts the earth, retreats into ether shedding corporeal form, still can't fit in a size 14 dress*
I just backed a game KS for the first time in a very long time.

It's so charming and happy it overcame my jaded burned by too many KS shell.

Story Time (3/3)
So okay you're like why the hell are you telling this story?
The point is, thanks to this experience, I have a slightly heightened sensitivity to fire and electric codes. Which is annoying because the easiest thing to do to light up my house would be to daisy chain surge protectors but there's a voice going no don't do that everything will catch on fire and you'll die. But I'm like sweetie it's a 60 watt bulb.
Also I am tired after trying to install a wemo outlet for an hour.
Story Time (2/3)
It's not bribery if it's official, right?
Because it was cold and the building was stupid drafty the guys in charge didn't come out. Instead, they sent the youngest guy out to sit in a theater doing nothing all night.
Which would have been super boring for him except it turns out he was super into ponies and had nobody to talk to b/c his chief would send him straight to hell if he learned that best pony was Applejack.
And it's totally true except best pony is clearly Rarity.
Story Time (1/3)
Once upon a time I had a job where I had to stop the fire marshal from shutting down an old theater. My predecessor was terrible. I'm not an electrician, but I knew enough to know that putting 4x575W bulbs on a 20 amp circuit is a bad idea.
There was no way I'd get everything up to code, so in the end the solution was we'd pay the FD $$$/hr during performances so they can have a firefighter on standby in case the building lit up (quite possible even after all the work I did).
