I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I never fully grasped the whole "naptime" concept. I didn't asleep during naptime.

I didn't either, but I was so distressed by my "failure" that the nuns let me read instead. So I got my own special reading time! It was awesome.

I was just talking with a friend about my disappointment at never being chosen as "nap fairy" because I couldn't stay asleep.

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

Emmett's old enough to be in MIDDLE SCHOOL??

I hereby decree that Buffista offspring are not to age in between F2Fs. It's just confusing.

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

I'm convinced that "nap time" is just a break for the teachers.

(i.e. I never slept either)

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Does anyone here (I don't) know how to pronounce Chinquipin? I directed Steel Magnolias before the internets, and pretty much made it up (something like Chick a pin)

Trust my rage

Steilacoom tends to give non-natives trouble.

I used to live there! Such a pretty town with an awesome 4th of July parade and really cool beach.

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

Apparently, Christians need to become militaristic and embrace religious warfare....

Well, I made a good guess for a western new yorker. Of course we have Charlotte (shar-LOT) and Chili (Chy-lye), and also Conesus (Con - ee -shus).
