There were hot people in the '90s; they ate bread

Laughing at the idea that if the Pike kids knew who "Lily" was but Hayden and Jackie didn't a) they would be able to keep it a secret, and b) it would be in any way appropriate to ask them to keep it a secret

Interview prep for a role where I feel like I semi know what I'm talking about. Trying not to be too relaxed about it...

Sometimes I think I'd like to buy myself a nice ring but there's no way I'm paying engagement ring prices for a ring for myself (not that I'd want anyone else to spend that much on a ring for me either)

Writing is when you repeatedly open a document with unfinished work, reread what you wrote and alternately think that it's not too bad or the worst thing ever, but you don't touch it for months and months.

Weird storm happening here. Lots of thunder and wind but the barest smattering of rain.

Feels weird that people know Iain Stirling for narrating Love Island when I mostly know him from when I was a uni student and would watch him with a puppet dog doing the inbetweeny bits on CBBC

Of all the PM switch-ups over the last decade or whatever, this is a weird one. I just had to check that Burnham wasn't already PM because everyone's talking like he is.

Just listening to today's episode of Three Bean Salad and Órla from last series of Sewing Bee wrote in with a recording of her family singing the email tune in Gaelic, casually mentioned that she was a finalist in the last series (the guys didn't seem familiar...) and that she'd tried to get TBS references into every episode, and then finished it off with a switcheroo.

The thing with break-up and make-up fics is that if you start them off with a breakup that's so horrible, usually with one person being egregiously mean or unreasonable (often to the point of being completely out of character) I don't want them to get back together anymore. I can love a couple so much and want them to be together always but if you do that to them, I will just say "seems like they'd be better off apart" and read something else. I have to still be able to root for them to get back together.

Once I'd figured out I was apparently emailing my docs to the wrong addresses (those were the ones on the website so it's not my fault) and that's why they kept bouncing back I was able to print stuff out at my local library. I love my local library for giving me somewhere to print stuff out.
