Two more days until Texas

Timmy, I blame you for introducing me to lolilovesvenom. The rest of you I invite to observe this strip in particular. Second panel: is that not the relationship between plot bunny and author? (First strip can be found here for those too lazy to just go through the "skip back five entries" or "view calendar" options.)

I really wish I had more rats. While I'm not 100% sure Arthur is lonely without rattie companionship, it would be a load off my mind if he had some friends his own species. ...Pet friends, of course, not wild. Or maybe I just miss the sound of rodent romping in the night.

I am TOO GOOD for your lyrics memes. Actually, I just don't listen to music often enough. I have no playlists set up! I don't know how to do that randomize thing! I know nothing! So I suppose ignorance is occasionally advantageous?

Leaving time for Texas is officially set for 6:00 AM on Saturday. I will be bringing my pillow, no ifs, ands or buts.

I am out of things to say, I think? Until tomorrow, probably. Oh, except don't forget to vote for ytak's picture (it's open through 11:59 Pacific time Friday) and/or sign up for a card.

Edit: Holy flocking flying fish, the lab people trust me o_o

[Setting: It is aprx 9:50; the lab closes at 10:00. Lab Worker (LW) and Socchan are the only people in the lab.]
LW: ...All right, you look trustworthy enough.
Socchan: Hm?
LW: I'm going to make you a deal.
Socchan: *nod*
LW: I want to get going now. I'm willing to let you stay here until 10:00, but you have to shut down your computer, turn off the lights, and close the door when it's time to go. You got that?
Socchan: o_o Yes.
LW: You can't stay after 10:00 either.
Socchan: Cross my heart.
LW: Okay then. *leaves*
Socchan: ...Holy shit.
