Cool bandaids rock! I have duct tape and Batman and Hello Kitty and Peanuts.
The Container Store sent me a teasing brochure. I didn't know they also sold office supplies. Look at the kiddie scissors!
The possibilities are endless.
Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

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

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I can see the band-aid thing, if they were the kind with pictures.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Man, TAR -- who the hell am I supposed to root for now? I just don't like any of the remaining teams.

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
The models are really the only option, I think.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I hope the bandaids are a good stocking thing, because I got some for the nieces.
Tivo scored me Harold and Kumar. Yay Tivo, and YAY NPH.
eta: ita, do you have beef bandages [link] ?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
And weren't the models the only ones smiling in the picture of the run-up to the finish?

Kids also love to get Band-aids in their stockings.
Yeah, the fun kind. I still like getting them. We'd get practical and goofy and candy, too. And an orange. And some small change.

Because books.
That's what my nine-year-old said, Jesse! Good eye.
I want to root for Alabama, because I would love to see an all-female team win but I'd kind of hate myself for doing it. So I think I will sit back and watch without rooting for anyone in particular.

And an orange.
OMG. After reading the orange-in-a-stocking from the Laura Ingalls Wilders books, I was SERIOUSLY bent out when I didn't get an orange for a few years running. Then I got a clementine and mom explained how, even in her youth, they were so rare during the winters. Never did figure out the whole peppermint straw in an orange thingie. Ew.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Granted, I could see Rob and Kim being so done with the race and with each other that they don't smile, and the boys smiling anyway, because they're models, but still.
I think my family may have bailed on the oranges in the stockings, which I think it kind of a bummer.
