Yes. Yes I do need that today.

Perhaps the power went out for a little while at the Manor…

Perhaps it’s snowing real bad and they got stuck there for a while…

Perhaps Alfred’s making hot coco…

Who’s to say…

I just think it’s messed up that couch sleepy never directly translates to bed sleepy

There was a young man from Peru

Whose limericks stopped at line two

There once was a man from Verdun

There once was a man from the sticks Whose limericks stopped at line six. They were fine till line five Then they took quite a dive — But the problem is easy to fix If you just ignore the last line, it doesn't even follow the rhyme scheme oh god I've really lost control of this thing I'm so sorry...

There once was a man

From Cork who got limericks

And haiku confused.

So it seems, via virtue of me owning a sewing machine and knowing how to use it, I’ve somehow accidentally ended up as the tailor for my co-workers (hemming pants for $5 a pair.)

Co workers; “Man we used to take them to the tailor but that’s kinda pricey :(”

Me; “Why don’t you just hem them yourself? That’s what I do?”

Them; “Wait you know how to hem your own?”

Me, slightly puzzled. “Yeah, it’s not that hard. Takes like, 5 minutes.”

Them; “You can sew that fast???”

Me; “Well, the sewing machine can. Takes more time to get them cut and pinned up to the right length honestly.”

Them; “YOU HAVE A SEWING MACHINE??? AND KNOW HOW TO USE IT??? HOW MUCH WOULD YOU CHARGE TO DO MY PANTS?”

Me, even more confused, thinking that ‘hemming a pair of pants’ was basically the simplest thing ever; “Uhhh…yeah, I dunno, like five bucks?”

Them; “OH YOU ARE SO HANDY HERE I’VE GOT FOUR PAIRS.”

And that’s how I learned that no one apparently knows how to hem up their stuff any longer.

I mean, no one knows how to hem things any longer. They can only hem them shorter.

Even as the first shadows were felt in Mirkwood there appeared in the west of Middle-earth the Istari, whom Men called the Wizards. In the likeness of Men they appeared, old but vigorous, and they changed little with the years, and aged but slowly, though great cares lay on them; great wisdom they had, and many powers of mind and hand.

A little continuation from this post - Dick not liking Damian at all when he first meets him is still the funniest thing to me so obviously I was going to carry that over to this au

Was thinking about how Jason and Damian are exactly 10 years apart in age and how if Talia did decide to give joint custody of baby Damian it would make it around the same time that Jason was robin and the opportunity to draw my two boys as babies how could I not

This is the Goose of Outrageous Self Assuredness. Take from her example, her ludicrous and excellent poise in the face of bullying, and be confident in your place, your course, your equal validity.
