Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Because books.

I think I'm going to give up giving things up.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I think I'm going to give up giving things up.
Yiss! Works for me!

What is even happening?

I'm going to give up my sinus infection and my anxiety. Don't try to talk me out of it. This is a sacrifice I have to make.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ooh, Cindy, I like the way you think. I'm going to give up beating myself up over things that are out of my control.

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

I need to give up giving things up, honestly. But it's the hardest quit of all.

That's a good one too, Jesse. Mind if I throw it on the pile?

I'm gonna give up manually resizing several hundred screenshots. Or I'll give up what's left of my sanity.

Or maybe both.

You gotta do what you gotta do, babe.

It's easy for me, for lo I am lazy and likes my pleasures, yes.

Joe and I are also forgoing our usual Fat Tuesday meal of kielbasa, sauerkraut, periogies, and beets for excellent Mexican food with Jon B. this evening!

Heh. Not what I would have had in mind for a Mardi Gras meal. It's weird. I know in theory it's celebrated all kinds of ways by many different cultures, but it's such a big deal back home, and in very few other places I've been that it seems like a strictly Louisiana holiday to me.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

They were advertising paczkis on the radio last night, and I was craving some, but I'd have to drive into the city to get some authentic ones (not many Polish bakeries out here in the NW burbs, for all that there are a lot of Polish immigrants--my library has a Polish book club).
