Aw, poor kid. I'd rather me have the headcold than him. I can whine to the entire internet! He doesn't have that.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Two things:

    • I'm drunk.
    • I fixed two toilets this weekend.

    I'd be useless with an abstract.

    The funny thing is, you know as much as I do, on some of these subjects. But at least I know the Hebrew for the Hebrew section, so I guess I still have an advantage.

    Double-worst!

    Shh, don't let me know that! I may pretend somebody will look at it tomorrow before I go to bind all the copies.

    Oh, now I wanna have Noah as a comrade, too, but it a good thing, not in having-colds and lacking-sleep. Hmm. He's too young for chocolate, right?

    [Edited to note that sarameg is a very nice internet-auntie.]

    He is too young for chocolate.

    You can whine, sara, but he gets his whims catered to.

    Gronk.

    Hey, Nilly, I got your extra sleep covered over here. I just fell asleep watching the football game. And whilst I was asleep the SO went over and said his goodbyes to the band we quit. Which I intended to do. But didn't, 'cause, asleep. Whoops.

    Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

    Do you even have two toilets, Scola?

    I'm drunk.

    I fixed two toilets this weekend

    Are these two things related?

    I had work I needed to finish this weekend. Did that happen? No so much. I went to a restaurant for a friend's birthday and was in a trivia tournament for most of today. We did not win. It was a bit on the surreal side, since it was held at Medieval Times and there were patently fake jousts (with real horses) during the breaks.

    "Faded like the lilac, he thought."

    I'm a little concerned about the order in which those two things happened, Scola.

    Hmm. I can't wear adorable clothes or make people's days better just by looking at me, the way he does. I'll just have to owe him some treats, then. Hopefully to be given to him personally, some day in the future, when he's older and I'm across-the-ocean-er. And then, I'll share with him. How's that?

    Liese, you had the perfect excuse - you were too busy balancing the universe.

    [Edit: wait. If Tom were drunk, is it possible he fixed the same toilet twice, and just saw it double?]

    I fixed my own toilet yesterday, which would make me feel all manly and useful, except that it was broken for a year, and I broke it even worse before I finally fixed it. When I was at the bar tonight, I noticed that the toilet wouldn't stop running, and I saw that the thing-a-ka-bob was detached the the hoosie-whats-it, and I fixed it too.
