What Are You Thinking? Continued 14

In first place, but selling like a sub-.500 team. Actively making the team worse in the push towards the playoffs while significantly improving another contender.

This is literally the most ass backward thing I have ever seen.

Maybe there is a world where this trade makes sense. Maybe someday I will even live in that world. But right now? I feel betrayed as a fan, as a paying customer, and just as an enthusiast of the sport.
 
It doesn't matter how much I would like to turn the clock back, time only goes in one direction.
 
Though I love my fan on while I sleep, I can't stand it on my skin. I want it cold enough to use a blanket, not a sheet.

But, it doesn't bother me any other time. Whyyyy?
 
Oh, so this is what heat stroke feels like. Awesome. Fanfuckingtastic.
 
Today has been an excercise in finding alternative solutions. Really, the whole weekend has been.

I'm having difficulties reading this book because I just don't like the heroine. Loyalty is great but not when it comes off as sheer stubborn idiocy. She keeps doing the goddamn stupidest things time and again. She wallows in self-pity far too much and it's annoying af. I'm ready to throttle her myself, and I'm at 40% of the book, only. :rolleyes:

It's a pity because the writing is pitch-perfect. The historical period is very interesting and not much used (Hanover period and touched on the 1st Jacobite rebellion in 1715.) The author knows how to use real history to progress the plot, and she captures the sense of time and place perfectly. I wish more romance novelist working in historical form could be as good (possibly with better characters).

Sometimes you just have to take the bad with the good. As long as you are still being entertained, you may as well stick with it. That's the yardstick I use anyway. It serves me well.

I dont want to be here right now...I want to be on a beach listening to the waves lap at the sand while a cool breeze brushes my hair away from my face and I sip on a fruity cocktail.

I want a week, or two, where I dont have to stress about work, where I dont have to figure put/prep/cook dinner or do anything other than relax
I hear you. I'll have a pinacolada served in a pineapple, when the waiter comes to serve us our drinks on the beach...
