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

That is not sucking or jackassery, Aillean, that is caring too much. And having a yummy fruit salad in mind that you can't duplicate.

You might need a nap, though, most people do.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Ok, this made me laugh out loud. And, kinda feel like a jackass, because I'm stressing out over making a damn fruit salad. Which is, you know, fruit. How much do I suck?

No sucking! Just find whatever's on sale (Kroger had strawberries, blueberries, apples, pineapple, melons and pineapple, I think). Clean, cut & toss. Then nap.

I think I'm going to go with the "cut a bunch of fruit and put it in a bowl" method. Cut the bananas tomorrow (maybe apples?), dip in a little lemon juice, easy peasy.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Come to think of it, my Mother's yogurt use may be serving a brownification deterrent function. Huh.

Someone should invent a phone that will hear me yelling "I'm coming I'm coming I'm coming" while it's ringing and tell my caller not to hang up.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

You answer the phone? There's your problem.

My sister is always making little passive-aggressive remarks about how she calls me all the time and I never call her. I just left a message on her answering machine pointing out that I do call her, but she's never home, she doesn't turn on her cell phone, and she never checks her messages. In fact, her recorded greeting on her cell phone is, "Don't leave a message, I never check." What. Ever.

I don't always answer the phone, but when I, for example, hear my husband through the answering machine saying "Pick up" in an aggravated voice and I'm on the other end of the house, the phone should be able to transmit my intention to, in fact, pick up.

move out and draw fire

My wedding was $1000. That was the sum total of money us and our folks could come up with. It was fine, and better than most.

Of course, I just sat through a new-employee investment seminar about how to put money away for your child's wedding. @@@ (yes, I'm rolling 3 of my eyes at that).

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Do you put money away for your child's wedding before or after you put money away for their college education?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Probably depends if they're a girl or boy.
