I just realized my parents totally blew me off -- they didn't call before they headed to Italy for a week and a half! Real nice.
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Dude, they just didn't want you to be jealous!
ita, I don't really have any words but I'm glad the ceremony was what it was.

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

Uh huh.
You know, I forget this isn't normal, but we always talk Sunday evenings, rarely at other times. I'm pretty sure this came from advice my mother read somewhere when I left for college, but it definitely works for us.
So the point is, I haven't talked to them since last weekend, and now I probably won't until they get home!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Ah, damn. I posted a political rant in my LJ. I thought I was fairly restrained and tried to be sane, but hey, it's my LJ, I can state my opinion. And of course, a couple guys replied to it. I don't care. But one guy posted two condescending replies that didn't even bother to address my main point. I ignored the first one, but the second one damaged my calm. I posted replies, and now I'm thinking I should just go delete it all, before it blows up my LJ. I hate it when guys who think they're fucking military strategic geniuses because they've read fucking Starship Troopers a couple times talk down to me like I'm stupid because I, a mere girl, dare to question the administration. grrr
trying to find the zen in being pissed off at condescending strangers...

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Dinner choices: Pizza, or Chinese food?
Drink choices: Tequila, or vodka?

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
pizza here
Beer is what we are having here - if you choose pizza I'd go with tequila

Sadly, I have no beer.
I think Emily drank it all.

Ew. Maybe the zen is in knowing that they are stupid poopyheads?
I always choose pizza over Chinese, but sometimes remember that I do like Chinese food after all.
I have Mike's Hard Cranberry Lemonade, which sounds like it would teh awesome, but is actually too sweet for me.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I think Emily drank all of my beer as well. It's the obvious answer to why I have no beer.
