Now I'm tired. Stupid day.
Aug. 15th, 2012 03:54 pmToday's very strange highlights.
Books, cookies, pizza, and coffee. Wooo!
Zapp: "Up here in the clouds, our technology makes us invincible, like the mighty X in Tic Tac Toe." *goes to spaceship window*
Zapp: "Look at those pathetic cavemen down there, loading their silly catapult with... what is that, Kif?"
Sabre-toothed Cat: *Launch, smash through spaceship window, attack, rar*
Zapp: *screaming, gets attacked*
Kif *totally doesn't care* "I believe it's a sabre-toothed cat, sir."

Well, in the kitchen while washing dishes, I had a seizure, dropped a plate, dropped a knife, and stabbed my fingers with a fork. Cut it out, brain. (No, not that way.) Now I have to put myself back together again. This is so dumb.
I'll probably feel better by tomorrow as long as I take care of myself. But that kind of scraps my trip to Wendys. :/ However the burgers will still be there tomorrow, and I just ate mac n cheese, so whatever.
Son of a limp slice of bacon, it's a pain flare. I hate you, sciatica and fibromyalgia. Grumble.

"If you step on my foot, you need to get off my foot.
If you step on my foot without meaning to, you need to get off my foot.
If you step on my foot without realizing it, you need to get off my foot.
If everyone in your culture steps on feet, your culture is horrible, and you need to get off my foot.
If you have foot-stepping disease, and it makes you unaware you’re stepping on feet, you need to get off my foot. If an event has rules designed to keep people from stepping on feet, you need to follow them. If you think that even with the rules, you won’t be able to avoid stepping on people’s feet, absent yourself from the event until you work something out.
If you’re a serial foot-stepper, and you feel you’re entitled to step on people’s feet because you’re just that awesome and they’re not really people anyway, you’re a bad person and you don’t get to use any of those excuses, limited as they are. And moreover, you need to get off my foot.
See, that’s why I don’t get the focus on classifying harassers and figuring out their motives. The victims are just as harassed either way."
