Sapient Alphabet Soup

"Hey, fam, I know you haven't thought about Garfield in a hot minute, but wouldn't it be swell if you discovered a secret underground break room in your place of work, all while hearing about the drudgery of Mondays?"

There's this category of dreams I get that I like to call "basement dreams," where some anodyne place to me has a sprawling subterranean complex underneath it.

I had one last night, and for some reason my subconscious decided the best characters to accompany me were... Garfield and Odie.

Today's weird discussion was also, "What do you think the inside of the starships in Star Trek smell like?"

(I'm on team "hot electronics" myself)

OocQToD: "We could eat our weight in giant checkerboards!"

Just born not his fault

I always wanted a bottled olive sculpture as a kid. They looked so fascinating on the shelves of the kitchen section of the JCPenney's. Then I saw one actually in someone's house, which had begun to evaporate...

Do Not

I had no idea the chiffon cake trend held on long enough for a chiffon cake mix to make it to the 90's!

Ah yes, the great women innovators and scientists of history. Curie! Lovelace! Goodall! Aaand Giggles, leading cereal physicist of our times!

Also OoCQotD: "You know when you have a heaping tablespoon of sugar, and level off the top? I feel like that right now." Which is a feeling I would sure love to have, boy howdy.

Suffice to say, I got a simpathy rant about how overworked I am from a six-year-old today.

I'm gonna be real with you, I had something I was trying to post, but the first word inexplicably came out loke that, and I decided, you know what, sure. It captures my feelings well enough that way.

Had one of those moments this morning where I woke up, looked at the clock, when, "AHH IT'S ALMOST SEVEN I'M LATE FOR WORK" before realizing, "...Oh wait. Saturday."

Trying to avoid social media until I can go home and watch the Tomodachi direct! And yet I'm here now! AHHHH!

My grandma used to get sandwich cookies with banana-flavored filling. I have never seen them since and I can only imagine the nostalgic hit if I were to find their like again.

I had a lovely dream last night that I was just... designing Animal Crossing houses. But, like, in real life. I resized a room and accidentally deleted some nice wall partitions I'd set up.

I smell an "accidentally got married" episode of a sitcom a-brewin'.

I feel like I need to start posting more unhinged things to scare off the randos who feel the need to follow me out of nowhere. Maybe I could start posting about how a regular sight at my place of work is blood mixed with saliva dribbling down chins.

"THE AUDIENCE IS NOW DEAF."

Waaahddle Deeee!

Waddle Doo?

Broom Hattah!

Finally, FINALLY cleaned off all the junk on the cedar chest in the bedroom, so I can actually use it for blanket storage!

Imagine the absolutely frothing Puzzle Fighter vs. Puzzle Instinct late 90's flamewars we could have had. Or maybe don't for your sanity.

I feel the urge rising within me to replay old PS1 platformers.

Teensies are so Creachur, I love them

Mario vs. Donkey Kong has a lot of little weirdos buried within.

He's just vibin'

I want to be delightfully chilly at night and burrito up under multiple blankets, but wake up in a sauna when I actually have to get up in the morning.

If I had a genie that could only grant fairly minor wishes, and also that genie might actually just be a chunky gift card for a hardware store, I would love to live in a house with a proper programmable thermostat for once.
