I'm going through a cold and our attic has been invaded by a racoon. The combination of the two means I'm seriously short on sleep.

When a raccoon got into our chimney, repeated application of rags soaked liberally with ammonia got it out. The fumes drove it away.

I bought cheese-flavored snack mix that smells like feet.

"Italian Cheese Blend." I guess parmesean can be a little stinky...but now everyone probably thinks it's my feet.

Or a cyst?

Get it checked, though, jinx. I know how painful that is, and maybe they can do something for it.

I love racoons. Is it young? If you could catch it, you could keep it as a pet.

Excel. Why the eff is it returning "false" for 61 entries that match and the other 9963 entries, which are formatted exactly the same, are giving me the correct return of "true?"

Either they are not formatted the same or the formatting is not the relevant attribute.

Yeah, I've checked all the usual suspects. Formatting of SSNs, dollar amounts, etc. I just gave up and started over with my original spreadsheets. At this point I think that will be easier than to try to figure out what I did wrong.

I think I scared it off. (or gave it a heart attack and it's dying in the attic)

I am a fucking retard. I deleted all of my saved passwords from firefox. I wish they'd had a warning dialogue box that popped up saying something like, oh I don't know,
"What, are you fucking retarded? Why would you want to delete all your saved passwords? As if you'll remember half of them. Good luck logging into your email, douchebag. What a fucking numb nuts."

Then I could click "Cancel" or "haha just kidding, I'd never do something that frigging dumb."
