Fifteen Minutes of Scrawl

Here are some short pieces based on things that have happened in my life recently.  "Conversation Set" Why is this "conversation set" called a "conversation set" in some of the instructions, but a "patio set" in others? Also, how many translator rounds did these instructions go through? Surely AI can write a bit more coherently than this. And what is the right amount of tightening the screws to do for the first three so that I can get this forth one to catch a little so I can then tighten them all so it can support my weight? I have had two friends help me with this "conversation set" and it has frustrated us all. I got the small table done today with a friend and a different friend got the rocking chair frames together. Tonight, I have attempted to get the green mesh that will be the actual part of the chair one sits in and I have finally thrown up my hands. I picked this "conversation set" partly based on color, partly based...

Wow a woman on reality TV has daddy issues? This woman MUST be psychic That said, it sounds like Pao's dad was a piece of shit Okay, I'm glad Rebecca acknowledges that psychics cannot provide solid evidence, but I do need Rebecca to actually believe that I do agree that John and Patrick do not look alike Hey, John, getting drunk is BAD ADVICE for how to repair a relationship Also, John, maybe apologize to Thais for yelling at her instead of to Patrick for yelling at her? I can believe that Sarper has been aggressive in the past (we've seen it on the show), but in this conversation he seems to be pretty meas...

Time for more family drama? Genuinely confused how Catie and Josh are just moving on Josh...you know your parents will now be able to watch this whole show, right? Catie...you said IN FRONT OF JOSH'S PARENTS that you would TRY to not take other lovers Marissa...Edward is allowed to bring up serious stuff Marissa, I don't get why your tone is THIS harsh with Edward right now Paula really is pretty Aw I'm glad Paula's sister is here Mido...you don't even seem to be able to pretend to support Debby about her son not coming I think it's fair for Anabelle to be nervous to meet Shea's daughter with Nicole To be fair, Shea's kids are allowed to be skeptical of ANYONE coming into their father's life--what matters is how they treat her and how they adjust their view of her based on her actual actions I do get that there is something peaceful about being on the water, but I can't imagine this body of water gives Rasit the same feeling as being on the coast...

I previously made a list of "15 things I still need to do in/at my new condo" --but here are more things I need to do!  Stick door protectors to the inside of my room's door and the outside of the other bedroom door Sort through my IDs and documents to decide what to put in my fireproof case Adhere the window privacy film I got for the glass doors to my porch Gather all of my dad's IDs and documents together to get shredded Decide which photos I want to put in the new frames I've ordered Install the dog barrier I got for the screen door to my porch Put the non-slip bath stickers on the bottom of my tub Give my mom and stepdad their folding chairs back Move the extra paint from the painters to storage Launder the new guest towels I've purchased Fold up my camping chairs and store them Wash the new shower curtain I've ordered Buy more pillows for my guest bedroom Return the outdoor bed Hoban hated Lay my patio rug out (Prompt by me) Photo by Dyana Wing So o...
