via Facebook... I had some weird iTunes fugue thing happen and I may or may not have just bought and downloaded some 289 songs... Right now Donna Summer followed by Vance Joy. I'm having a good night.

via Facebook... Never slept. No, not insomnia or pain. Or at least not physical pain. Instead it was psychic pain. The pain caused by a kid who has read some blogs and can say things like "evil imperial plans" when discussing sending aid to Africa for the Ebola outbreak and can insist that most if not all military should be arrested for war crimes and put in prison but, of course, has no actual working knowledge of said military and lumps everybody together and calls me biased. And ignorant. Ignoring that my spouse is retired military. And uses multiple ?????? when asking questions to make them questionier. Which actually was the thing that made me twitch. Did I mention still a teenager? And somehow me mentioning that the military contains bunches of marginalized groups and oppressed groups made me a chauvinist. Anyway. My brain hurts. I'm going to eat chocolate and listen to Walken read Where The Wild Things Are to clean my brain.

via Facebook... Now I'm hungry. But I don't want anything we have in the house. No, not even chocolate.

via Facebook... Also....I hate pumpkin. And I don't mean I think it's yucky, I mean I hate it with a white-hot hate I reserve for very few foods. I hate the flavor, the pies, the spiced, the lattes, the way it pushes itself into otherwise wonderful things. Pumpkin beer? WHY! Pumpkin coffee? EVIL! It is a deep betrayal. I can never forgive pumpkin for its invasion all things otherwise yummy.
