southernmedicineThis week I watched all of A League of Their Own and The Sandman. The recent remakes, of course. Very, very different vibes, but I loved them both!
It's my roommate's birthday, which means we had a proud tradition to uphold tonight. Whenever it's his birthday or mine, we always go to Red Robin, take advantage of the free burger people get on their birthday, and then try to conquer our previous record of how many baskets of endless free-refill fries we can get through. Our all-time record is 8, and we only made it through 6 today. I blame it on the milkshake we shared.
The ants are gone. An exterminator came to the house and took care of it, but his visit really validated me. I was not exaggerating our predicament. This man, who has been in the business for many years, was so alarmed by how many ants we had in so many different locations around the house that he got on the phone with his manager to ask for advice. In the end, he got it done, and we haven't seen any since. I'm so happy. It was so bad that I would just see ants crawling around whenever I closed my eyes.

fandomgiftbasket could use some help! Maybe half the participants haven't received any gifts, and most of the others only have one item. Gift reveals are supposed to be on September 13th, so we've still got some time. You do not have to officially be signed up to leave a gift in somebody's basket, so if you've got some free time or are looking for an outlet for some creative energy and might like to contribute, there's a handy dandy spreadsheet here that you can peep to see what sorts of fills are needed. I'm working on a couple of things myself.
