There's more than one way to skin a cat. And I happen to know that's factually true.

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

Today just refuses to die. What's that about?

Also, I don't like cream puffs.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

A lot of pho in. Town comes with a cream puff. I get sad when it is puffless.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I like that plan, Allyson.

If only you could embrace the cream puff, Lee, the day would end.

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

But it would end badly.

If you embrace the cream puff, Lee, you wouldn't have to eat it.

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 just had to say goodbye to my nephew. He doesn't really get the distance and time thing, and I'm pretty temporary in his life anyway, so he's cool with it.

My heart is so broken, though. Trying to keep a stiff upper lip. I got him some Hot Wheels trucks and a coloring book, we made a last batch of cookies, and he showed me the chimney sweep dance from Mary Poppins (complete with somersault).

I was six or so when after one visit (and its tearful goodbye) my Uncle Mark went to the airport only to return three hours later saying he just couldn't leave me and would be staying a few more days.

It was probably the happiest day of my life to that point. I still tear up thinking about it.

(It was only about two years ago that he broke it to me that it was just that his flight had been cancelled. Don't know why I never figured it out myself.)

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

Embrace it with your lips.

Will you be up for visitors (and TV pick up) after we drop her off?

I might not be the chirpiest, but am I ever? Stop by.

Okay, leaving work now, picking up random food on way home. Gave a status report to my boss that made it sound like...well, like actual work had gotten done. Which, despite the migraines and shit--it had. So there.

Okay, ita. we'll stop by. We aren't the chirpiest either as I have been up since 4:00 and K didn't fall asleep last night until 1:00. And Noah had a shot but no naps.

Is there anything you'd like for us to bring? We have potato balls.

I get sad when it is puffless.

Hee. Yes, that was what the review of the place with the cream puffs said, "you will be disappointed when you go anywhere else because you will expect a delicious cream puff, and there will not be one"

I did not have their pho today, though, but a few weeks ago.

Also, I don't like cream puffs.

More for me!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Embrace it with your lips.

Dirty.
