WTF Roxy

I think my most favorite smell in the world is an evergreen forest.

I thought so also but apparently there are situations where the FOIA request can be denied. In this case, it may be that the “unrelated investigation” of the victim officer is active or there may be concern for his privacy. What I just read was a little vague but I didn’t look further today.

Came here to say the Pratchett oeuvre

This is it. I remember it being on the radio back in nineteen dickety-do.

Hi maybe this is baby steps towards full acceptance of his own change of heart/decision to grow. Maybe he is still erasing lines that he had previously pencilled in.

I have zero idea who you are but I am super happy for you that your dad has worked out how to love his daughter ❤️

Quick convo with my Daddio, who does not own a smartphone:

Me, after an AirTag test on his car: Would you consider letting me put an AirTag on your person for when you’re out and about?

Him: So you can locate the corpse?

Me: Well, I mean… ultimately.

😂😳

(He let me AirTag him AND the car.)

I can touch the piggy who got no roast beef with the piggy who went to market.

My podiatrist calls my feet “particularly challenging” but it turns out that toe thing is a great but admittedly creepy party trick

Kind of like how I’m borderline hyper mobile and can pull my hand away from my wrist.

I found 10 abandoned prescription bottles in the forest today - half with semi-dissolved capsules in them. I almost gloved up to bag them and take them to the pharm myself to be destroyed but thought better, didn’t touch them, oxford comma, and called a deputy.

He looked 15.
I am so old.

PSA:

Viewing one’s cuticles through a jeweler’s loupe is GREATLY discouraged.

Not kidding. Don’t do it.

(But one secretly kinda sorta wants to view one’s cuticles through a jeweler’s loupe now, doesn’t one.

Fuck it. Do it.
DOOO EEEET.

One can’t say that one didn’t warn one)

In case anyone was wondering - for now and in the future - I’ve zero interest in sound baths. Just thinking about them makes me twitch.

Other things in which I have zero interest, in no particular order, off the top of my head:

* Musicals
* Pokémon
* Team sports
* Peplum
* Lambchops
* Clubbing

This is an image of two brown paper-wrapped packages with arrows pointing at the poster’s husband’s name in the return address on both packages. Under each arrow there is a handwritten note - one reads, “This guy said that he is one of the luckiest men in the world & he has no idea what he would do without his wife, and that she is practically a superhero.” And the other note on the other package reads, “I heard that this guy’s wife is super awesome & cool”.

I packaged and sent away a couple of warranty returns for my husband. I wrote notes on them. I am amused and will continue for as long as it amuses me.

He doesn’t know I did this 😏

I got my replacement license today. I knew that I had to get a new pic taken, so I practiced my mean face in the mirror this morning before I left the house.

It’s still not right but it’s better than my default rictus.

I’m disappointed (in me) for not going with the side ponytail, though.

I lost my physical driving license last week for the first time ever in almost 40 years of having one.

I went to the tax office 25 miles away yesterday to get a replacement and the system was down all day for the entire state.

Of course it was.

It’s up currently. I guess I’ll try again. BooWTF

I am trying a new thing:

When I make an offer of assistance and my offer is declined, I will accept that as my answer.

I’m not going to ask if they’re sure they don’t need help. I’m just going to say, “ok”.

My offers are sincere and I shouldn’t have to convince someone to let me help them.

Things are better now. We both saw the potential for Absolute Destruction and neither of us wants that. I’m glad she broke her silence in time.

Even though we’ve not yet talked about how This Can Never Happen Again, I know that she already knows this, because I’m 51% Her.

Onwards and upwards.

New rule which applies to everyone: If I am treated as if I do not exist in someone’s world, I will make it so that I no longer exist in that person’s world.

I think she gets it now.
That is not the way for us.

I’m not going to play this game again.

In her ice-breaker, she said about how it seems that I do for another but not for her. I told her previously that she has to ASK me when she needs me, and this is how I need her to communicate with me.

It’s not fair to be mad at me for not helping when I was never asked to help.

The other asks.

She reached out Thursday afternoon. Told me some concerning info about her health that she has learned since she iced me out.

I replied with appropriate and genuine concern, but also let her know that some damage has been done.

It’ll take work to get back where we were. If we can. I hope we can.

she relieved me of some prearranged duties today with a short and to the point note.

i replied with a screenshot of her saying something to me just the day before she dropped the match.

she had said: "i love you. i hope you never doubt that."

i received no further response.

A lit match has been dropped on the other side of the bridge.

It needs to be put out but I can’t reach it, and she won’t take the extinguisher I’m trying to hand her.

I think she has chosen to douse it in alcohol instead.

WTF?
