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.
'Day' is a vestigial mode of time measurement based on solar cycles. It's not applicable. I didn't get you anything.

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.

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.
