Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

beth b, it sounds like you could use a nice cup of tea, too! Then you could really relax for a nap and then tackle your list of chores.

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

Problem with google earth, if I can't find the town name there either...but it's a start. I have a lot of tagging to do.

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

I just cleaned off my desk for the first time since Emily came to stay with me.

That was kind of gross, but then I got to shred lots and lots.

Oooooooooooooooo, Shredding paper is fun!

I'm a fucking amazing catch!--Fiona Gallagher, Shameless(US)

that reminds me of Pam. "Sometimes I get to shred stuff...wanna see?"

It really is. Especially when you have a cat who is fascinated by the process and loves to watch the magically disappearing paper.

The last 4 paragraphs of the story:

“Who is your favorite author?” Aleya Deatsch, 7, of West Des Moines asked Mr. Huckabee in one of those posing-like-a-shopping-mall-Santa moments.

Mr. Huckabee paused, then said his favorite author was Dr. Seuss.

In an interview afterward with the news media, Aleya said she was somewhat surprised. She thought the candidate would be reading at a higher level.

“My favorite author is C. S. Lewis,” she said.

like the story.

I don't like shredding paper.

and instead of doing chores, I am blogging about housework. It has not brought the cleaning fairies.
