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

I saw that. Those people were seriously nuts. And just basically horrible.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I am fortunately in a house that no longer has cable, because I watched a few episodes of Kitchen Nightmares, and this whole thing of restaurant owners who are convinced that Yelp is a giant conspiracy against them -- kind of a running thing.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

restaurant owners who are convinced that Yelp is a giant conspiracy against them -- kind of a running thing.

To be fair, Yelp does have a history of shaking down restaurant owners for money in exchange for not filtering out positive reviews. (Or at least, a history of being suspected/accused of such behavior.)

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

FTR I just watched last night's SYTYCD and read Kat's post to bob bob right after. Loved it! Those recaps are essential reading.

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

SYTYCD, briefly:

I love Tyrone the tapper.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Did that Swon brother just say that Oklahoma is "a praying state, and we know that helps"? Oh honey, no.

Also, I am now officially over Josiah, and enjoyed Usher and Pharrell riding him.

Because books.

I'm a little disappointed that Shakira looks like she took hair advice from Christina tonight.

I agree with all of the above messages.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I'm late. I'm just starting the show.

Shakira got some really bad hair extensions. We see you Shakira. That hair hasn't been on a human head in the past 12 months.
