"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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.

Junebug is great, really great.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

But if you were poly, you wouldn't have this wistfulness about "having" to "share," would you?

You don't have to be poly to send that card. It's poly to receive it. I also don't see poly people as running around being psyched about their polyness all the time.

Wistfulness and goopy sentiment in a love card? That's ... well, they often look the same to me. I'll get back to you in five years and tell you if I can see a distinction.

YAY, bonbon! Amy Adams totally knocked my socks off. Some of the characters (okay, most except for sieve!Dad, new!Wifey, and adorable!Preggo) were unlikeable but all of that pent up disappointment, discontent and anger. Yowza.

I'm going to stand by my original statement, I think.

oooh.. Look at Jesse, all argumentative today. I think I'm going to start calling her instigator!Girl. But that's too long to type.

I'm not argumentative!

What is even happening?

I think it's an affair card. It's either an affair card, or it's the card of a co-dependent, who doesn't mind that his/her romantic partner spends a lot of time [working; gambling; drinking; counting grains of sand].

MWAH! of course you aren't, Jesse. Let's argue about it!

I found a list of dates in my handwriting that have no meaning to me. I'm sure they're important, but I can't figure out why. 4 of the dates are meetings I have but the other 9? Not so sure.
