Natter 53: We could just avoid making tortured puns  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

he seemed in serious doubt these last few days.

I am familiar with that pattern of thought.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Seriously. Me too. Something new? Probably sucks. Oh, until I get there and it's awesome.

I swear to god, The Singing Bee is the most fun tv show ever. I guess it's more fun if you like karaoke, but still. So fun!!

karaoke is torture for me. So not for me, i'm guessing.

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

it amuses me to think I (short and squat) can wear something that ita (tall and curvaceous) can wear.

I was curvaceous, for a second. I need gain maybe 10lbs back.

And if I can in any way gain them by eating frozen seedless grapes, I may have the makings of a brilliant plan. This is like crack, man.

t Eeyore still stuck in the doldrums

It takes me a little longer.

I'm with Kat. I can see how karaoke fun for some, but it triggers my cringe. Probably because it merges two cringy things: me singing and public exposure.

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

He was last seen taking off for a short nighttime flight in a single-engine plane.

Recipe for car-baked chocolate chip cookies: [link]

The interior of a car can reach 180 degrees on a hot sunny day. At that temp, car-cookies take 2 1/2 hours to bake.

Dog is my co-pilot.

Noah in the pool is great. And tubeless time while remaining pink is good. One kid I sent home on oxygen weaned herself off by removing it herself when she wanted to get into her sister's record albums. (OK--long time ago.) She'd take the cannula off to get into the LPs and then if she needed it again, she'd pick it up and go find her mom or sister. Eventually, she didn't need it anymore. Granted, she was a little older than Noah by that time. And she's 30 now. I feel so old. Here are some pics. [Link]
