“”Secret Dreams”“

This is a decent enough book, and Emerson likes it, but this illustration of the dad seems a bit “Lifetime Original Movie/Law & Order SVU”-ish.

I thought about pretending to be at SXSW

But that sort of thing’s been done, and by funnier people than me.

Then I thought, “I’m a big fan of the meta, so why not pretend to pretend to be at SXSW?”

Technically, though, I’d have to be at SXSW to do that with any integrity, and if I could be there I would be there.

Which leaves me with pretending to be pretending to be pretending to be at SXSW.

But that would just be silly.

When Emerson saw Karl, she just smiled real big and said, “Bunny!”.

Only a two year old can throw a full-on fit when there’s pizza and applesauce in front of them.

Karl had a great hump day, but he paid for it in meetings the next day.

You know how you order something and they say “Ships in 5 to 7 business days”, and it turns out they ship it four hours later?

Yeah, neither did I until today*, and it couldn’t have happened on a better order.

*It’s standard ground service, so you’ve got a week or so before I become totally unbearable about my new ma-cheen.

Spender’s Remorse

I get depressed* after making any sort of substantial purchase, even when it’s been carefully thought out and anticipated.

I suppose it could be argued that it’s Buyer’s Remorse, and I imagine it’s a similar feeling, but the thing is I don’t regret the purchase.

Does this happen to anyone else?

*Not clinically, but “get down” sounded like I was boogieing.

Irony, thy name art autocomplete.
