Punishingly Intricate

23 5 year olds. Because if it comes to being swarmed by tiny opponents, I quickly lose any moral center I may have.

Me too! Although, I'd be completely overwhelmed if they figured out how ticklish I am.

The thing about that quiz, and any quiz that has a body type question, is that I never feel like my body type is represented. Chubby, yes, but also kind of athletic. Chubletic should totally be a category!

I hung out with (allegedly) the Youngest Sword Swallower in the US last night! I love sword swallowing! Not that it's something I'd ever want to try myself. Or lightbulb eating or any of those things.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I always want to pick the choice between "average" and "overweight," but it doesn't usually exist. Ah well.

Prosecutorial isn't a word?

I'm charging you with prosecutorial misconduct!!!

I seem to think that I am a gospel chior today and will not stop singing "Life every voice and sing". I was just walking down the hall doing the hand claps on the held notes.

And I never know what "average" really means. I mean, I guess I am just about "average" weight and height for an American woman (according to the CDC [link] but that also means that I weigh too much for my height.

Nora, that was frelling hysterical! I bookmarked that web site - will have to peruse more of it when I can.

Yeah, exactly. I think I'm demographically average as far as my dress size, but somehow I don't think that's what people mean. OK, that link tells me I'm almost exactly the size of the average US man. Interesting.

I think that link was for the BMI, which is pretty wack.

I woke up and felt icky, which then upgraded to OMG I Want To Die, and now after coffee is back to just icky. Anytime someone has looked at me too long this morning, I've wanted to snap, "WHAT?"

Possibly it's just me, but someone just sent me a request by including an e-mail I wrote from last summer, only altering the text for their own ends without bothering to mention that they'd done so.

Sure, it's a small thing, but I'm kind of hugely pissed. Problem is, I don't know how to reply with "please don't alter the text of my e-mails" without sounding like a bitch.
