What about an incinerator toilet?

What?!?!?! That does not sound . . . safe. In any way.

I’m not sure that’s a great option, but I find them interesting.

You should ask them to keep you under for 8 hours after the procedure, so you can have a nice restful sleep.

I could use a nice restful sleep.


As long as we're not talking too restful.

 

[Endless_Night]

Okay. That's it. I'm responsible for one meal this upcoming season.

I'm having it catered.

A hundred years ago, the accepted definition of masculinity included intellectualism.

(According to my reading. )

Between feminism and a host of other things, what constitutes masculinity has changed nearly beyond recognition, but that seems to be a curious component to have lost.

What's not to like about intellectualism?

I now ship out to fulfill my conscription of finding items left in an abandoned dwelling.

If I don't show up again, you'll know a wall fell on me, or a snake got me, or some other heinous accident occurred.

Oh! If something happens I might not have to fulfill my surgical obligations!

#bonus



*I will be there with one of the owners, for any worried about legalities.

 

[Endless_Night]

Welp. That was . . . an adventure.

Maybe not quite Indiana Jones adventure, but, if you substitute collapsed walls and dodgy floors for ancient traps, and god-knows-what-wildlife-was-running-around-in-there for snake and insect pits - fairly close.

However, target achieved.



I live such an exciting life.

 

[Endless_Night]

And the parade of packages begins!

Online shopping.

One of the great boons of the interwebs.

 

[Apisto42]

Hm, maybe I’m doing this online shopping thing wrong. None of my purchases are exciting.

Most of my excitement is that I didn't have to go out and deal with the crowds.

 

[Endless_Night]

Oh, and new integrative leach field thingy today.

Wheeee!!!!!

 

[investor2020]

Does that mean the "thingy" collects and isolates all the leeches into one place ?? If so, hope it is outside !

Definitely outside.

In dome shaped little cages.

 

[Endless_Night]

There is no current crisis at hand.

I'm not quite sure what to do with myself.

 

[Endless_Night]

Aaaand, it's looking like ye olde 400 pound stove is soon to be functional.

Today.

 

[Endless_Night]

Aaaaaaand, as the integrative leach-y thing is complete, I'm going to take a long hot soaking bath tonight.

Because I can.

It's shaping up to be a quotidian kind of day.

Perhaps a little shakeup is in order.

It's shaping up to be a quotidian kind of day.

Perhaps a little shakeup is in order.

1. Everyday; commonplace.
2. Recurring daily. Used especially of attacks of malaria.
3. Occurring or returning daily.
   "a quotidian fever"

You think you have Malaria?

I do not think I have malaria.

You could go Christmas shopping. In public.

That should cure your desire for something different real quick.

 

[investor2020]

Enny, I love it when you send me to the dictionary with your posts ! A little research was necessary . . .

• The earliest known use of the word quotidian is in the Middle English period (1150—1500). OED's earliest evidence for quotidian is from before 1393, in the writing of John Gower, poet. quotidian is of multiple origins. Partly a borrowing from French. Partly a borrowing from Latin. Etymons: French cotidian; Latin cottīdiānus.

Been there. Survived that.

Instead, I drove into, and through Houston. During the shopping season.

I considered alcohol, but collapsing in front of my laptop seemed easier.

Been there. Survived that.

How?

How? How? How?

Enny, I love it when you send me to the dictionary with your posts ! A little research was necessary . . .

I'm glad someone appreciates me for something.

(Also, I had no idea of the etymology.)

I feel like I need to take up something I have no talent for, like a language, or puzzle solving, or higher level math.

My neuroplasticity needs a workout.

Or cut to the chase and cancel the next Taylor Swift concert.
