Cool. Insent.

Cute Nonian doggies. Also, I had to click on the picture of the apple, because I have to ask, are they good? I've seen similar ones and been tempted to get them for people (I am, of course, a subset of "people").

May your time in court go smoothly, tommy.

Court is a formal occasion, Tommy. They're looking to see that you're cognizant of your transgression, et cetera, and that you're sincere about not doing it again. Therefore: interview suit, hair combed nicely, sober mien, "Your Honor" and "Sir" and "Ma'am" as appropriate. You want them to perceive you as a Good Guy Who Screwed Up rather than a Reprobate. Sometimes they will reduce the fine if they think you're sincere -- obviously, being sincere helps, but sincere in a good suit won't hurt.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Thanks for all the support and advice....

Hmmm.... I wonder if the courtroom has WiFi?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Huge, rambly, nonsensical, yet perhaps helpful e sent backatcha!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Thanks everybody. I'm very happy to have roof over our heads, even though, ironically, the family home has never been the home of my dreams (except of course in the sense that many of my dreams have taken place in it).

I like to call the Frankie-sib William, but I have no idea why. It's certainly not actively encouraged by the mother.

I promise he won't be named William, or any variant thereof.

What is even happening?

(except of course in the sense that many of my dreams have taken place in it).
Okay, this made me teary. Congrats Burrell, and family!

Oh yes, on the congrats, Burrell!

I celebrated my Snow Day by napping through 90% of the afternoon or nearly. Had a dream and all, so I was really out, too. Except that now I'm still sleepy....

Nah. And I hear Gavin is taken, although I do like the name a lot.

Okay, this made me teary.

You are so sweet. I actually meant it in another way. I meant that I often have dreams that take place in my house, which makes sense given the fact that it's been home for as long as I can remember.

Right now I am making my students write a paper about their dreams, so I have dreams on my mind.
