Bits and Bobs

Well, this is a fine turn of events. Facebook has gone wonky/unstable for me right in the midst of an IM chat, and even re-booting my computer didn't fix the problem. Poof.I feel weirdly cut off, helpless, and bereft, since unlike a disrupted telephone conversation, it isn't as though I can call back, since it's effectively as if my phone disappeared. I have an uneasy suspicion that I may have gotten a little too hooked on Facebook. Blergh. Addiction is ugly.

In fact, I've already hit the bargaining phase: if I promise to stop making backbiting comments about The Little Queen of Everything for a while, can I have my instant connection to all my online, imaginary playmates back, please?

In other exciting news, there's no cereal left, and yogurt and an apple does not sound like a Saturday breakfast to me, so apparently I must either cook, or go shopping. Oh, the dilemmas of my life. Pancakes, or scones, or a trip to Trader Joe's?

Today is bidding fair to being cool and gray. I might wear socks. Socks, people! I can't remember the last time I wore socks.

Pancakes, with sultanas, so that they're healthy?

You have my sympathies: the new Facebook app under iOS 8 is busy redefining the meaning of unstable. And they want me to use ANOTHER of their apps for messages? Yeah, Facebook, go sit and spin.

I was enjoying that post about The Little Queen of Everything. Oh well. I need to go do pet visits and bring a handkerchief delicately to my lips when I cough as I go about feeding the masses and cleaning their cat boxes.

I hope the socks were comfy and the shopping trip was productive. We're grey and rather warmer than I expected it to be here in Chicago. And the rain has just started to come down.

I only dip intermittently into Facebook, but I hang around here and Dreamwidth much more often. Mind you, when either of those become hard to access, I start to get jittery, so I understand your feeling. Heh.
