She is convinced once that happens they will take to the land and kill us all. After that they will decapitate us, pop out our eyeballs and go bowling with our skulls.
I told her that if they were really that intelligent...
Saving Money
There was is a helpful infomercial on the doctor’s phone that I am listening to. According to this I should quit smoking. People who smoke a pack a day can save $600 a year!
Okay smokes cost $5 a pack and as long as there are still 365 days a year, that math is totally effed up. The amount would clearly be > $1800.
Now I smoke very very litte, having cut back over the years to only 1-4...
FYI - appropriate response when boss asks how your week was is not “I’m going to start cutting myself”.

That’s the answer to all your questions. I don’t know if I’m quitting. It seems unlikely, because I suck at quitting anything. (I wish I could quit you?) The likelihood that I will actually delete my blog is low to very low, and given that I’ve already declared my imminent departure once before, the likelihood that I will stomp my feet and swear I’m deleting my blog...
