We have nothing to fear but fear itself. And spiders.

Things which are not fun, part one: Sticking your hand into the recycling bin without looking first, and smacking right through a web. Followed by that frozen moment of, "HOSHIT, I hope that's just webbing in my arm hair and not the resident coming to see who the homewrecker is."

Things which are not fun, part two: Discovering one of the cats threw up on the electric kettle, and there can be NO TEA D: until it has been cleaned. Which means functioning pre-caffeinated. Which is how you managed to stick your arm through a spider web in part one. -_-

Things which are not fun, part three: Realizing you are INSANELY HUNGRY. And still pre-caffeinated. And everything edible needs to be cooked first. *cries*

Things which are not fun, part four: Dealing with the ad-riddled nightmare of godaddy.com while pre-caffeinated and hungry.

Things which are, if not fun, at least amusing: That the legacy of the Beast Era is apparently, "Even if you are a giant robot, spiders are fucking scary." ^__^

Things which will be fun, once I have fed and caffeinated myself: Knitting the front of my sweater, and watching TF:P until my brain melts and runs out my ears.

Because it's safer to ask rather than poke about on Amazon

Watching TF Prime I keep thinking, "Damn, this scene would make for an awesome fighting game."

There, uh, isn't a game, yet, is there?

It is 6:17pm

And I have, at last, acquired food which is not a pack of peanut butter cups, and caffeine. I'm sure one day I will get the knack of this whole "responsible adult who can feed herself" thing.

Beast Wars peeps: You know I don't really do season three, but am I correct in remembering that once we hit the Ark storyline, all of the remaining unaccounted for stasis pods were pretty much left to rot? Or release gods-know-what on an unsuspecting prehistoric earth? Or fall through a convenient plot hole and show up on TF:Prime Earth, not that I would ever encourage anyone on my dwircleflist to write such a crossover, oh certainly not. *whistles innocently*

(Speaking of Beast Wars: senmut, did you want my beat-to-hell copies of S1? PM me.)

Today's 750 words was almost 1300 words long

And it was rated R. For swearing, sexual content, and violence.

Given that I was not writing fic, but just murbling on about my day, I have to assume this rating is based on the fact that I wrote "Do not fuck with Arcee" three times in a row. Unless there is some super secret meaning to "laundry", "stupid hot weather", and "quail" which I am unaware of.
