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

Anyone want a lightly-used cranium? Never been concussed, few scars, minimal sun damage.
I'd forgotten how I hate sinus crap. Only symptom? Pain. I need to go buy more sudafed.

Ms. Kat, you need to know I am always late. Just keep that in mind.
Okay, darling. It's in my mind!
JenP, I have been pretty absent as I got a little out of hand busy: teaching full time, teaching 2 courses at UCLA, taking grad classes, writing, and writing lessons for scholastic (which I have one due today. DOH!) Plus I was tired of reading myself and limited most of my online time to LJ. But it's nice to be around a bit.
you wear a smaller size than I do and you are shorter than me. I know you do not always like facts, but there they are. If you insist that I am tiny, then you are TINIER!
except, msbelle, for this. I still don't 100% fit into the clothes you sent. I'm still a thicker build, though smaller size (go figure). And unlike you, according to BMI, I'm still overweight. SO THERE. AM NOT TINY! Though I like when you shake your wee fists of rage.

OH! David! YES on the sonnets and how interesting Greenblatt's interpretation is.
I had never read the sonnets all in one fell swoop - I've read many of them piecemeal. I know that the sonnets were most likely arranged by the editor, but the fact that there is a narrative arc is cool!
Also, please to entertain me, as msbelle said upthread.

According to BMI, so am I. And that, quite frankly, is cock. I am so far from being overweight it's not funny. So BMI can go and poop, is what I'm saying.

Yeah. I know, Jars, BMI is so backwards. I love that I'm a size 4 and overweight according to them. It makes me giggle everytime.

I'm a size 10 or 12 English, I have no idea what that is in American, and I'm 5ft 7inches. I just happen to be really heavy. I think I have dense bones or something.

I got to squawk fuckfuckFUCK this morning at 7:07 am. Hrm. Maybe not that entertaining. Unless you realize it was accompanied by the ohshitmousie dance and Devi was actually carrying a neon green fake mouse while she warbled around the living room.
I bought the neon colored mice for a reason. Apparently, I'm not bright enough at 7:07 to figure out live mice don't come in neon green.

Could have been a punk mouse, sarameg. Best to not take chances and do the dance.
