I think it’s about that time again*. Ask me anything.
High entertainment value for all! Five questions for the price of 4! Three for a dollar!
* I may or may not have consumed my cupcake already.
Anonymous asked: Happiest of Birthdays Tumblr Buddy! I hope you have a fabulous birthday and birthday weekend. Please be on the lookout for a birthday present arriving next week (sorry it will be a bit late).
I have determined that the holiday season officially begins with my birthday. It’s the perfect marker between summer and the holidays. So it will be done.
The fact that Wordfeud (which I have decided is way better than Words with Friends. It just. Is.) does not recognize words like “Zen,” but does recognize words like “Taj” is ridiculous. There are many other egregious examples of word discrimination, but the newest one is “Zinj.”
You know, like the Lost City of Zinj? From Congo?
STOP EATING MY SESAME CAKE!!
My office is currently filled with candy and cupcakes with buttercream icing. I had one of said cupcakes yesterday (AFTER the red velvet cupcake) and two mini twix this morning. Oh, and I ate another cupcake.
This is worse than the holidays. It’s not even my birthday yet!

Breaking Dog News of the Day: Mango the Pomeranian is safe and sound after giving its owner Dan Dowdy and dozens of I-84 commuters the run-around for several long minutes yesterday.
The 4-year-old pup slipped out of its collar and took off from the Gateway Transit Center towards the highway, where it eluded capture for 15 minutes before making its way to a nearby high school.

I love when I spell people’s names incorrectly when I know the proper spelling and I don’t realize it until 6 hours later. Sorry, Ashley!
I blame trial brain*, which I have today.
*The foggy, goofy, out of it feeling you get when you’re in court in a trial all day.
I guess this means I need to do my happy post on my tumblr buddy reveal package from last week.
I blame this in part on the new tumblr app for Android not letting me do photo posts. Not amused.

Anonymous asked: Did you get the reveal package?!
I got my tumblr buddy reveal package! I love it. And I’m having trouble uploading the photo I took, so I’ll do a post on that shortly*, when I figure out what’s wrong with the new android tumblr app.
*What’s that, you say? I can post from the site? Inconceivable!
This crisis is not about the death penalty itself, or how you feel about it, whether capital punishment is right or wrong.
This is a crisis of our justice system, on which I have a lot riding. We put a lot of faith in the system, but it’s not without flaws. We all know that. But it’s still supposed to work. It didn’t work tonight. Due process wasn’t present tonight. Was...

Today is inherently a sad day. For some reason, I am more troubled about it this year than I have been in years past. Maybe it’s the extended media coverage.
