Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

How's your dog-walking soreness? Better, I hope.

Mostly better. I still notice a sort of muscle fatigue from walking or lifting my backpack. It's uncomfortable, but not enough to make me call the midwife.

Sorry about the queasiness. I know I was so relieved when that "if I don't eat now I will COLLAPSE!" feeling was gone. I thought of myself as a hobbit back then - 1st breakfast, 2nd breakfast, lunch, snack, supper, dinner was about my normal day.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am generally Quite Pleased with the prospect of Buffista sprog. Yay, y'all!

Also pleased (at the moment) with technology. I just did a task in an hour or so that took like 5 hours on Friday. Because the people today handed me a spreadsheet and the people on Friday handed me a pile of file folders. I just wish I had thought to turn the files into a spreadsheet on Friday. Yay mailmerge.

"Erect" being the operative word.

Oh, like I could let an opportunity for innuendo pass me by.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Thanks, amych (& Jesse). I haven't exactly made an announcement yet, but I can't help talking about it.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

That's because there's no commandment requiring editing.

Think how much better off we'd be if there were.

That would be MY first commandment.

Let me tell you how excited I was when Emmett's 2nd grade teacher introduced The Daily Edit into their course work.

That's right - every day the second graders were editing spelling and grammatical mistakes.

This is as it should be.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

1st breakfast, 2nd breakfast, lunch, snack, supper, dinner was about my normal day.

You forgot elevenses and tea. Very important.

Those tsunami photos were very frightening. I can't imagine what they must have been thinking.

Okay, what's going on? I've just stumbled across my fourth Orwell/1084 reference today, and I haven't really been surfing anywhere outside of my usual haunts.

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

Bush Administration, I think, has a lot of people feeling very Orwellian.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Orwell/1084

I love this typo!

You forgot elevenses and tea. Very important.

Thank you! I couldn't remember them, but 15 weeks ago, I was sure eating them.
