Is it warm or cold in Utah now?
Simon: I'm trying to put this as delicately as I can... How do I know you won't kill me in my sleep? Mal: You don't know me, son. So let me explain this to you once: If I ever kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed.

Warm. Quite warm. Which means the several feet of snow that fell in the mountains over the weekend is packing its bags for a trip down the mountains. We haven't even started spring runoff yet, and there are already mudslides and flood alerts across the state from the very wet spring.
It could hit 90 over the weekend. There was snow in my yard last week.

Yay! I finished my paper! It's crap, but I finished it! Also my debate notes, so I now have everything I need to finish the crap class! Oh, except a one-minute presentation on my paper, but I have this nifty metaphor worked out which should take up most of a minute.
Mind you, the paper doesn't really fit the assignment she gave, but the assignment was fragmentary and difficult to understand anyway.
Just one problem: I have no idea about her rubric for this class. Will the crappiness and off-topicness of this paper affect my grade? Or will the fact that I've completed all the assignments and participated in class pretty much have me set? Does it matter that she doesn't like me?
Why yes, I am all about me. Why do you ask me?

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
We didn't know DH was allergic to cats when we adopted one, who had two kittens which we kept, and one moved in on us in preference to the neglectful neighbors who he'd formerly belonged to. Attrition took all but the orignial momcat, and she was with us 16 years.
Two months after she died, his chronic mild respiratory symptoms cleared up, another month or two and his nonspecific and sporadic mild rash cleared up, and he stopped taking OTC antihistamines. He felt so much better I didn't have the heart to ask to have another cat.
Eight years later, he was the one who spotted the injured feral who needed rescuing. We vacuum and swiffer the house (not as often as we should, actually), and brush, comb, and wipe down the cat with a damp cloth at least once and usually more daily. It keeps the allergens to a manageable minimum. Everybody's happy.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh, no, the nifty metaphor isn't going to match the crap paper for the crap class!

Hmm. So you think I should make the metaphor more crap then?

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
