My new Virgin Mobile cellphone has had the number switched from my old cell already! So it's live and everything! I am ridiculously chuffed about this....

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Not quite Lamarckian inheritance, but interesting nonetheless.

What is even happening?
Cindy, I don't think it's the sudoku that's evil -- YOU are evil! Damn, woman!
This was always my problem with math. I could do the math. I couldn't show my work. I have no way of explaining the sudoku. It's just there.
I'm also horribly addicted after trying it only four times (3 easy, 1 evil). *shaky fist*
Also, I swear to god I'm not talking to strangers on LJ anymore.
Mmmmm. Yep. My 'talking to strangers' on lj is now almost entirely limited to people I do actually know, who just didn't end up on my fl, or people I don't really know, but who are active in the journals of people on my fl. The more I wander LJ, the less I want to be a part of lj. I love my little corner of it. It mostly works better for me than a message board ever could. But there are too many children, freaks, and freaky children on there. And when I say freaks, I don't mean it in the good way, I mean it in the way that makes the most uninhibited, unique, individual Buffista look like a cloistered nun.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Greeting cards for the person you're having an affair with: [link]
It is a sentiment guaranteed to melt the coldest heart:
“Just when I thought I would never find my true love — you came along ...”
It is a greeting card, decorated with a depiction of purple flowers. Inside:
“My soul has been searching for you since I came into this world.
“All my life I have had this emptiness inside, like a part of me was missing and I was incomplete ...
“And now I can’t imagine my life without you ... Even if I have to share you.”
Even if I have to share you?
This, clearly, is not a card for the wife — not the sender’s wife, at least.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
YAY packrat Kat! I love that, it made me smile, and possibly yell EAT IT!.
In fact you make that combination "Ewww" and "WTF?!?" and "Whatever!" face all at once.
That is my face a lot of the time. isn't it?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
“And now I can’t imagine my life without you ... Even if I have to share you.”
What is wrong with people?
I slept late, but not as well as I might have, due to construction in the apartment next door that started at 8:30 this morning. Argh. Now I have got to got to do laundry, or I'll never be able to get dressed in clean clothes.
Edit:
That is my face a lot of the time. isn't it?
Yes.

Well ... well ... it's a poly thing, I guess, right?

glad it made you smile!
I had shoe failure again today while running, but now I'm making cupcakes so it's 40% better. My friend Michelle is going to be here eventually and I'm feeling as cheery as can be expected.
OH! Perkins! My thing with the deptartment chair worked out! Nothing like the power of an apology and responsibilty-taking over something I've done wrong to smooth the way.

But if you were poly, you wouldn't have this wistfulness about "having" to "share," would you? You'd be all psyched that you weren't trying to restrict each other into a single relationship.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
