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

I'm going to a dude ranch in arizona in august to spend time with just about all of my living blood relatives. Do you really think this is the time for me to try and become nicer?

eta: boarding nowish.

Bye all!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I don't know... it depends on the cuteness level of the dudes, now doesn't it?

What is even happening?

I meant the Ms. Jane Doe, Ph.D. for the envelope. Inside, I would use "Dr."

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Kind of surprised Ms. Manners didn't pick up on the real issue here:

I was introduced to a Dr. Soandso at a party and was embarrassed to have him say, after I had discussed at length an interesting disease in my family, that he didn't know anything about medicine.

It's no "can I kiss your belly" but sheesh. Maybe if you didn't launch into long involved stories with absolutely no prompting from the new acquaintance, you wouldn't get so worked up about having the proper code words to identify which tale you drag out.

Yeah, that was the really egregious part.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Umm-hmm. I think after a few of those conversations, the head of the Mayo Clinic would claim to be an art history professor at parties.

And then they'd get questioned about what they think of that Kinkade guy on PBS.

Basically? People=inappropriate.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I like to address letters to my parents as Rev. {my dad} and Dr. {my mom}, although I'm pretty sure she only pulls out the "Please, call me Doctor," when people are giving her lip.

Always Anti-fascist!

Believe me, I know, sm. There is no other explanation for being in my thirties and having to answer ten years of stored up, well, crip questions. I thought one day I'd get old enough and everyday enough that I wouldn't have to do it anymore.
