I'm voting for clean laundry actually.

Alternately, you could determine whether Emily or the dishes are dirtier and choose from that.

But more than just sitting quietly, she said they need to learn to "cope with boredom" by sitting and doing nothing.

I never learned to cope with boredom. That's why I carry something to read with me at all times.

Nora, I'm sorry you're friend took out her unhappiness on you. I've had the same feelings as she had, but it never occurred to me to yell at the happy person.

I once had to write a number of articles quoting an annoying person named Rhett. Spellcheck kept suggesting "rat." I never added Rhett to my dictionary because I enjoyed having him called rat.

Carlsbad Street Fair

I'm jealous! Today I will go to the mall and get my Mother's Day gift (a Tonka Bean candle, which is awesome). I may BBQ tonight. Later will be The L Word. All in all, a pretty good day.

Happy Birthday, Eddie! May it be a Bitchin' one, too! Whatever your definition of Bitches is.

It...meanders around, smelling the coffee in one spot, naming a rose in another. But, most of all, it is a very nurturing place to be. It's where you go when you have a boo-boo that needs fixing, when you've climbed Mt. Everest and want to shout from the summit, you come here. We give hugs and hairpats, throw glitter and glee about with abandon. And, we give pedicures. Not that it can't happen in Natter, but here, we do it in Bitch Style.

Mother nature is being a bitch today.

We should not have freezing rain/sleet/snow in Minnesota on May 1st.

Good thing I looked outside before going out to put clothes on the line.

Especially wearing only jogging shorts and flip flops.

Me and you, Daniel. Snow just isn't supposed to happen in May. It happened/is happening. Ugh.

Fay, thanks for checking in with us and letting us know you're OK!

My apartment is a mess. I should clean it up and maybe put on something besides my Johnny Damon t-shirt before Teacup Guy gets here. If this rainy weather doesn't stop soon I don't know what I am going to do. Everything hurts. When we finally got back to TcG's apartment last night and I climbed the two flights of stairs I couldn't do anything but sit down and cry. I hate my body sometimes. Actually, most of the time.

{{{JZ}}} You have every right to feel surly.

{{{Nora}}} You don't deserve that, and you shouldn't take it from anyone.

Happy Belated Birthday, Gris!

Happy, Birthday, Eddie!

Thanks for checking in with us, Fay.

Yeah, OK, the date was not fabulous. Or rather, it was fine, and she's very nice, but...not wanting to do anything more than hang out with her. Now to figure out how to say that. Augh.

Happy Birthday Former Child of Nova!

Oooh, I really like the gown Susan posted. So pretty.

The best Word correction I've ever gotten

Word tries to correct the name of my company to "Nazi". It cracks me up.

Good morning.

The nice benefit to passing out at 3 is that it actually somewhat corrected my schedule.

Now i really really want zankou chicken. But I need to find somebody else who is awake.
