Yeah I never kill spiders, unless they land on me or something and I just get startled. I have a dedicated Spider Cup for catching them (and it was just barely big enough for the one today 
).
Flies though… I farging hate flies. I’m smack those buzzy bastards right out of the air.
I currently have 103% in my chemistry class… but the first exam is on the weekend. We’ll see…
You remind me that I need to record new readings of some of my stories. I’ve found it’s a vital editing step for tightening up the pace and rhythm – and some things that look fine on the page sound awkward when spoken aloud.
Isn’t Audacity great? 
Yes! It’s less intimidating than I expected. Great editing technique for your stories, too.
No camera, but I just put on the terrific pale blue silk shirt I found at a yard sale last Saturday for a dollar. It’s a men’s shirt, too. So there’s a pocket, and pockets rule.
Damn. I want that shirt!
That’s totally my shirt now!
Just be glad it wasn’t one of the “slim fit” shirts which often come without a pocket…they do give me the appearance of less of a beergut, but no breast pocket?
It burns my guts!
You can do it all by yourself! Very good! 
OK, that’s funny. But maybe it wasn’t buttoned the right way (or the left way, or however that works)!
But let’s not go overboard! There’s still tying shoes to master! Not out of the woods yet!
I work in customer service, and our calls are “graded” throughout the month. After a spectacularly bad call in August (a difficult customer, an odd and unique situation, and just being caught off guard) I wanted to bounce back for September.
Just got my last review in, and my month average is 96%.
At 7 AM. Before vitamins OR coffee. Damn right. All the buttons lined up properly, too. Now where’s my Nobel?!
You can pick ONE sticker out of the prize box.
I’ve mowed the lawn AND spent two hours on the phone with the IRS without raising my voice all without having breakfast!
(this is what tri-athletes must feel like)
This whole thread makes me feel like a failure. I haven’t accomplished anything.
Or have you chosen not to accomplish anything and done nothing as well as anyone?
Love this show. Use this argument with my wife all the time. It’s how I motivate myself.
Banana stickers!
His art was terrific, too. <3
Oh. Overachiever, huh?
I feel you about talking with the IRS…a lot of times it’s a nice enough person on the line, but…it takes so long 100% of the time!
Well…I bought three 24 oz cans of Steel Reserve 211, filled the tank with gasoline, and taking a roundabout way back home behind a cemetery, saw a cool young buck/stag deer ambling across the road.
See a lot of does and fawns, but hardly ever ones with antlers.
AND I parked in my carport such that my downstairsnik will have difficulty opening her driver’s seat door. Plus, I added comprehensive insurance to my collision insurance, so there!
/* ETA.
Here’s my one great accomplishment for today.
No, I’m not joking. The HOA allows ADA trained service dogs, but no others. And I like dogs, and vice versa.
Too many scofflaws, forcing me to pay hundreds of dollars in fees when I have music playing at a reasonable level to drown out of these beasts who should be (i) trained or (ii) if not possible, have their vocal cords clipped.
I pay a sh*tload every month to that damned HOA. And they don’t do ess for me. */
I successfully kept from mercilessly mocking the last idiot who literally asked me, “Are the machines with the out of order signs on them working?” On second thought that required a rather herculean effort so… And just for the record… No, they aren’t.
You participated in a new and growing community today. And I always enjoy seeing your username!
Anyway here’s what I think of being useful…
I choose to be the Mona Lisa
