Well, other bands know more than three chords. Your professional bands can play up to six, sometimes seven, completely different chords.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

That's very tricky. and it might even work on me, except I only run for busses, or after dogs that have gotten loose.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

A breakfront! That's genius.

I don't have a super-clear idea of what a breakfront is, but I bet people who come to my house won't either!

And I got a beautiful scarf for Christmas that will be great on top, but not in my bedroom. It's a plan!

Maybe for later.

Wow, you really were tricked!

Oh, I'd have been bitter, bitter, bitter. And collapsed in a heap of dead from out of shape, but that's more or less beside the point.

I had to buy a bigger medicine dispenser today. Really, it's because I take three calcium supplement pills and three multi-oil caplets a day now in addition to some prescription stuff and a multivitamin, and the supplements are inconveniently large. Still, I feel enoldened by the need for a bigger medicine dispenser.

Funny note: I actually got a vitamin dispenser, because it was cheaper and conveniently had seven compartments. The packaging had an example of how one might use the dispenser, you know, put your Vit C here, then your calcium, yadda, yadda. The "vitamin" pictured in the first compartment? Advil. Vitamin Advil. Been there, man. So sad.

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

I carry this pill container (large). It's tricky, but I could just about hold a week's worth in there. But now that one of my meds has bumped up, I may have to lose the Aleve.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Liese, I'm sorry if we sucked you in!

No, no, it's too late for regrets now. I've got all this folding and drying and putting away to do.

However, I am making up for it by using our very expensive gift certificate to the local (absolutely excellent) Japanese restaurant. Yay, sushi!

That's very cute. For a container that carries things (I'm going to feel safe saying) we'd mostly rather not have to take. I need compartments, or I'd mess up the daily regimen. All hopped up on calcium one day, strung out on fish oil the next...

So, this is very old, but if anyone is still interested in checking out that article on carseats from Consumer Reports, or indeed any other article, you might want to consider checking with your local library before subscribing. It may be available online through one of your library's online databases. Alternatively, they may be willing to scan and send it to you. At last resort, you could actually stop by the library and use their copy. Most public libraries subscribe to Consumer Reports.

It's a pretty damn cool knife, is all I'm sayin'.

Ulus are the bestest.

I am so full right now, I don't even know. That's what I get for ordering a whole pizza plus cheesy bread instead of walking around the corner for a slice. Or two.

The cat did the most uncatlike thing ever: after yelling at me didn't work at getting me to pick up her ribbon to play (hello! Busy washing dishes!) she took the hem of my pants in her teeth and tugged.

Freaky.

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

I can't fit all my pills into any daily dispenser I've found. I take ten and a half prescription pills a day, and about four over the counter ones.
