    I knew the camera in my laptop was secretly photographing me! How else would you know these things? I'm still researching your Papal inquiry, BTW.

    Very much what I thought, although The Lorax was about "thneeds," which I'm sure could be used to hold unruly hair into place. :)

    TMW I am feeling a little insecure because I realised I haven't read much by POC authors. I'm making a reading list.

    I have a running list on a spreadsheet of POC and LGBTQ+ authors for a project i'm doing for work. PM me if you'd like me to share! :)

    Ps. Still working on Indiginous authors, though!

    That moment when you get paid tomorrow so you just order the pizza today because you have a squeaker left in your bank account.

    I remember the days of making a beer last for an hour because I knew my check would hit the ATM at midnight and I didn't have enough money on hand for another one until then.

    TMW you wake up and realize that you've managed to break your drinking habit and can now avoid beer until Friday and Saturdays. :superyesh::cheerleader:

    TMW - within the 1 to 2 seconds it takes you to open a new tab - you forget what the fuq you were going to search for. :bigmeh:

    Were you high? I'm good for at least 45 seconds under similar conditions.

    Not even remotely, sad to say. I wish I could blame it on the kush, but I don't imbibe until at least after 8:00 pm (usually). I was as str8... well... as str8 as I'm able to be, which is a little more like str7 or str6. ;)

    That moment when you're at your desk and you absently reach for your mug of coffee, take a deep swig ...forgetting that it's actually green tea this time, with lots of lemon.

    Hey, at least you weren't on your deck, reached for your beer, and accidently grabbed the beer bottle you stick your cigarette butts in. I've done that on more than one occasion.

    I avoid that most of the time by not smoking. But damn, hanging out with smokers is fraught with hazards like this....

    TMW you wake up strangely irritable and sad.

    Then remember that yesterday you watched an hour-long YouTube video by Stephanie Harlowe as she relayed the sad tale of a woman who disappeared in 2011 onboard a Disney cruise vessel she worked on.

    Sherlock, is there a connection? Me don't know. :confuzled:

    That moment when Michael is really really hard to work with and you understand completely why your antagonist wants to impale him with something.
