The friend is a year laid off friend. With more adventure than I have. And a night off from her teenage (pregnant! At 15 !) foster kid.

Friend is a good egg. She fosters teenage girls, but draws the line at raising a baby. But she remains a resource if they choose to have babies, just not in her house. I think it breaks her heart, but she knows she's not the person to raise a baby,. She IS the person to get to a 15 year year old and build her confidence and give her the skills to raise and/or give away a baby.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Not my actual ass. By "ass" I meant "self."

Is that metonymy or synechdoche?

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

I put in a load of laundry and went to get carry out pasta. This had better taste good.

Loopy & me, means really bad typing.

bouncy bouncy bounce.

I just figured that I have almost all my Christmas gifts identified and about 1/3 purchased. This makes me very pleased.

ita, I hope your pasta is a better dinner than my bowl of cereal was. totally not satisfying. also check your phone.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Depends on which value of "we" you're talking about. I'd have voted for Nixon's remains before Bush jr.

Reanimate Nixon!

I roll carefully. No bouncing.

Dinner was part of a london broil (whatever that cut is in a skillet) and mashed potatoes. Nice and rare cow. It almost mooed!
