I'm all official-like now.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's this phone: [link] Assuming I still like it in person. But I'm 70% sure that's the one I was looking at last month when I though I could get the best deal only to be told no, I had to wait one more month.

I like Kilborne, too.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Jesse, that is a FANCY phone. But you're a fancy kind of girl.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Okay. I feel a lot less like death on toast now. More like coma on toast. Or like I ought to abandon this metaphor.

I don't know if it's the Sudafed kicking in, but at least I'm not shaky and dizzy any more. Now if I could just figure out how to speed up the clock and make it quitting time...

I am fancy! And it's practically free, anyway. So.

Glad you're feeling better, Dana, although I have no help to offer on the time thing. I know theoretically getting more done would make the time go faster, but I just have no interest in any of the things I have on my plate.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I'm remarkably bitchy today. It must be the PMS kicking in. I just got all pissy about my computer (both my desktop and the laptop I was trying to get connected) not working properly, and went into major snit mode. Now, I'm feeling all resentful that I have to work at the bookstore tonight.

I just want to get my vacation started on Friday morning.

We should trade plates. That always makes things more interesting.

Actually, speaking of plates, I have one of those random food questions that we cover every so often.

Do you like to mix food, or do you eat all your items separately? I am a big fan of combining meat and vegetables in one bite, or meat and potatoes, or vegetables and rice, whatever is on my plate. My husband, not really a mixer.

Do you like to mix food, or do you eat all your items separately?

Some foods I mix, some make me gag when mixed. It depends. But I think I mix more often than not.

If I have mashed potatoes, it's an almost sure bet that I'll mix *something* with them. Ideally, corn.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Being 100 meters from a Celine Dion concert would probably have that covered.

She's now using The Who's hand-me-down sound systems?

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

I form the mashed potatoes into a volcano, with corn at the base representing the villagers. Then, the gravy eruption comes....
