Yes, there is. There's a hurry, Xander. I'm dying...I may have as few as fifty years left.

I'm down on matchy. Especially matchy worn at the same time. Complimentary, sure. Matchy. No.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

One of my friends had her dissertation defense yesterday, and her husband brought their baby son in to say congratulations afterward, and the husband and baby were wearing matching outfits. It was kind of adorable.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My father and his brother and their respectives wives took a group photo at Sears or somewhere in matching shirts (although I think they were matchy by gender, not couple), and that's all I can think of now. The picture is hilarious, but ridiculous.

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

Mine was very much the little girl's version of the dress, but it was a dramatic fabric that I remember the most, and a distinctive cut.

The bit where they matched me to my sister--now that was abusive.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all !

I am being loved on by a cat. She has draped herself over my arm.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I was having a hard time pasting on my phone, but I thought of this because of Jesse's eye doctor comment.

Does everyone's eye doctor say "Which looks clearer, sharper. One or two" I wonder if they all have to practice it together in eye doctor school?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

One of our cats has been wary of the new dog and has been avoiding him like the plague. J called me to tell me that the wary cat was on his lap and the dog came over and smelled him.` This worked out well for both parties and it resulted in the dog licking the cat on the head--and the cat LIKED it.

Scrappy, that's freaky! Good, but freaky.

When my parents had a dog, one of their cats constantly sported dogspit fur gel.

Grr, ahrg. Got my lease renewal info. If I were to go month to month, it'd be an extra $300. PER MONTH. Which is insane. I don't know. I may see if I can negotiate a shorter term lease.

I'm home after my not-quite 4-hour work day. No cupcakes, but I did buy two new pairs of shoes. Dear DSW, I love you.
