A year and a half ago, I could have eviscerated him with my thoughts. Now I can barely hurt his feelings. Things used to be so much simpler.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I just don't like Mac keyboards. They're too small and unresponsive.

My fave keyboard is the Microsoft "Natural" keyboard, but I love the feel of the keys on the Mac white keyboards. (I had a Bluetooth one, but it died. It was perfect for typing on my lap while watching TV.)

Wait, did that happen to ita too?

Rio, no. But it was more of a pain management thing. I agree, Jesse, so scary.

Now my radio is talking Reggaeton.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I think I have like a primal shudder reaction to the spinal-fluid thing. Like, it Just Should Not Be.

Yep. I feel the same way. It's Just Wrong.

BTW, thanks for the panda link Tai Shan walking is just so cute I almost can't stand it.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I had the spinal fluid leak thing when I fractured my skull. It is less than fun.

You guys! Keep your bodily fluids where they belong, please!!!! Also, I suggest less fracturing of skulls.

Sheesh, people.

I think we need to start handing out those padded helmets.

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

This story is secondhand: One time (my) Bob was talking to someone who had worked at a fast food outlet. He told Bob that he would never eat there again because [w/f for gross] every body fluid you can imagine was at one time deposited into someone's food. And Bob immediately responded, "Even spinal fluid?!?" The storyteller had to admit he hadn't thought of that one.

Oh greaaaat. Just got an email from the brother thanking me for my presence as it prevented him from spilling blood.

I get it now. I'm the family stress toy!

Hopefully, they didn't include any lymph or bile either. Or perhaps not hopefully, as if someone is going to secretly contaminate my food with their bodily fluids I guess I'd prefer they get peritonitis for their trouble .
