Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What's the last thing that made you smile unexpectedly?

Something stupid in a meeting. But I'm quick to smile.

What's the last thing that made you smile unexpectedly?

Some of the charming things people who are no match for me have written on matchdotcom. One fellow posed an odd riddle that I got right. Veeeery clever.

Here's the riddle:

There are three erors in this sentance. What are they?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

What are they?

1) erors; 2) sentance; 3) 3 (instead of 2)

1) "erors" should be "errors"

2) "sentance" should be "sentence"

3) there are actually only two errors .

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

Vornado is quick out of the gate with answers:

What is the difference between a fan and a Vornado Air Circulator?

Unlike an ordinary household fan, a Vornado air circulator doesn't just blow air. Instead, it literally bends and twists air to produce true whole-room air circulation using Vortex Action, exclusive to Vornado. So rather than drafts and dead spots you get an even temperature and circulation through out the room. Vornado air circulators conserve energy year-round by working with heating and cooling systems. In the Summer months, place near a window or air conditioning vent to circulate the cool air. This enables you to raise your thermostat up to 5 degrees and maintain the same comfort level. In the Winter, take advantage of heat already in the room, direct the airflow upwards to circulate warm air that gravitates to the ceiling, back to floor level.

Okay, now I have to finish annotating that PDF and also find steel toed mary janes.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Okay, I can't rightly tell why turtle vs. cat is so awesome, but it really is. I think maybe it's got an element of cat vs. roomba.

Why can't I find steel-toed MJs? They seem so intuitive.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
