And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I {heart} kprinkle.

ION, gyros are messy, but also delicious.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

I need to get new hooks or something for the earrings I wore yesterday. Everytime I wear them, one ear gets irritated. They are either too heavy or the hook is just oto thick.

I was having this problem the other day. I finally decided that the earrings were just too heavy. Then I hit on the bright idea to turn one into a lapel pin. It worked beautifully and I got tons of compliments and less ouch-y ears to boot.

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

I don't mind winter in places that can deal with it. I'm an Ohio girl after all.

But, in LA, when it's cold as it is at night, nothing is built to withstand it and that makes coldand cranky.

KPRINKLE!

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

it's cold as it is at night

I think it's the night temperature drop that's bothering me most. I get used to the relative balm of the day, and can't deal with turning the heat on at night. My windows are open during the day, and I look blankly at them at night and tuck the pillows under.

Okay, work rumours just ratcheted up my headache gear.

hip deep in pie

psst: Sue, move to NYC, less wintery.

It's tempting....

But, in LA, when it's cold as it is at night, nothing is built to withstand it and that makes coldand cranky.

I am not convince my apartment was built to withstand winter either. It seems to have no insulation to speak of. Thank god for polar fleece and my duvet.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Very few things are as funny as KPRINKLE.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Joe was so kind as to lend me his Nano today.

Now I remember why I don't listen to music when not at home, in the office, or in my car.

Because singing out loud and outright dancing on the sidewalk are looked down upon. You = craxy.

Especially when you aren't signing something most people would recognize. The lyrics from "Wicked" out loud, on a downtown LA street, make you look like a craxy person.

Specially "The Wizard and I". I almost did the Mary Tyler Moore toss and twirl in the middle of our plaza.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I will never forget the spreadsheet I made trying to figure out that problem!

Kprinkle does always make my day better.

Also, I am positive it was Cybervixen (and so weird that she posted today) because I remember her thinking how funny it was that we were all indignant that the teacher would give a problem with NO ANSWER!

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

I don't know what it is about my new place-- it's got windows in every room that we have pretty much kept open since we moved in in September. But no matter how cold it is, it will be warm in the apartment. I no longer fear the heat death of the universe.

I finally decided that the earrings were just too heavy.

I'm hoping it isn't this. I really like them (some sort of opalescent teardrop glass, wrapped in silver at the top with a garnet set on it.) and I used to wear much heavier ones. It's also weird that it is always the same ear, dangit.

Night temp drop seems normal to me. So I always get confused in the summers here when it doesn't. In the winter, it is pretty much "What do you mean it is only 15 degrees warmer once the sun is up!!!" Always too damned cold.
