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

Oh, gods yes.

I bought a kosher turkey (from KosherMart!) a few years back, because of the whole brining thing. Unfortunately, what that meant was that it also wasn't very well plucked. Ew? I want my dead bird to be less bird-y.

ita, I love that link to the Grover thing. Love. I own "Monster at the End of This Book", still.

Cindy, how and why did you botch THREE pies?? And still have the energy to make a fourth? I'm impressed.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I got up and wlaked the dog and then did Pilates. DH has already made the vegetable dish we are bringing to dinner, so my next exciting task is to dye my hair and then try to style it in some way so that my hideous new haircut does not look a. matronly or b. insane. This, sadly, may not be possible.

You can always do lots of twists and barrettes or clippy things. If your bangs are feeling too short, you might try spiking them with gel (down not up), or sleeking them to the side.

Worst case scenario? Sleek the whole thing back and you're a red hot Scrappy anyway.

Go with insane, Robin.

This morning was a krav flag football thing they do every T-day. Not that I went. Just mentioning it because it's cute. All I have on my plate today is kettlebell, if my headache subsides enough and my partner can get away, and then checking out the new Denzel Washington movie.

Thanks for the consult, Hec! I think I will go the barrette route.

Short bangs can be very fetching!

That will look freakin' adorable on you.
