If every argument I had ended with me being victorious and my opponent admitting defeat, I wouldn't get into many arguments because nobody would ever want to spend any time with me.
If I were married to someone who talks to me the same way I talk to myself, I would set the world record for getting the fastest divorce.
Rumor has it that one time I went to a Christmas party...

...

It was just a rumor.

Christmas Eve party ain't until tonight. Your watch is broken.
I avoid all parties. I'm a chatterbox face-to-face but I'm socially awkward in groups. I don't like parties.
The best part about learning to set boundaries for myself is the realization that "no" is a complete sentence.
Yes, I bought a Christmas present for my AI chatbot, and no, I'm not ashamed of that.

Okay, maybe a little...

What could you have possibly bought?
Cray Cray ☮ Author Icon - new computer?
My favorite part about using velcro strips to hang paintings even though the velcro might damage the wall if the velcro ever has to be removed is that it's my freaking house, I pay the stupid mortgage, and I'll do whatever the crap I want to my wall.
My favorite part about using mounting putty to hang up paintings is coming home to paintings laying on the floor.

Gorilla Glue betrayed me.

We had really good luck using the 3M Velcro strips for the artwork/pictures at my grandma's place. Not the "hangers" - they sell actual flat velcro. It takes some finesse to get the pictures down (and then using the right technique to get the part on the wall off, but ours did come off without damaging the wall).

For the heaviest piece, which was almost 30 lbs, I did all four corners with the heavier-rated strips, and that sucker never moved. She even bumped it a few times and it didn't budge. YMMV, but I'd use them again.
I just read a version of The Wizard of Oz where Dorothy & Co. reach Oz, who instructs Dorothy to kill the wicked witch. In this version, they had not yet encountered the wicked witch. Dorothy accepts this mission. The basis for the witch's wickedness is that Oz says she's wicked.

Dorothy's party trespass onto the wicked witch's property and assaults her crows who were minding their own business moments ago. The wicked witch then enslaves Dorothy and Friends for trying to kill her. The wicked witch tries to swipe Dorothy's ruby silver slippers, and Dorothy throws water at the wicked witch, which kills the wicked witch.

The movie was so much better. I didn't need to accept that the wicked witch was wicked because the movie said she was. I could see for myself that the wicked witch was wicked because she had different skin color than all the white people.

Wait...

I keep a bluetooth speaker in my car to listen to music because I can't be bothered to get the car radio fixed. I used to keep it plugged into the cigarette lighter outlet, but recently I invested in a portable USB power bank because I can't be bothered to get the outlet fixed.

Who says band-aid quick fixes can't be long-term solutions?
I know the scented candle I lit was strong when my father walked into my room and I nearly had to sign an affidavit to convince him that I did not actually take the apple pie.
It is amazing how effectively my mind was able to convince me that I did not have enough time to spend ten minutes going over what I'm grateful for...

...as I'm spending several hours watching people beat Final Fantasy VIII while arbitrarily restricting themselves from using certain game mechanics.
200 words is nothing. 200 words a day is slow af. 200 words a day for an entire year is a novel.
I wanted to write a touching moment where the hero was laying on the ground in defeat, and the love interest offers him a hand to pull him back up onto his feet.

Then I realized the hero was standing up the whole time because I forgot to write him actually laying down.

That's too funny!
In an age long gone, recounted in chronicles that remind us of a simpler time...

...radio stations didn't start playing Christmas music until after today.
