I think I'll evit it, as I'm feeling rather kempt and gruntled at the moment (and it is evitable)....
This must be what going mad feels like.

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

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
You can be "unkempt," but you never hear of someone being "kempt."
I think my favorite pair of these is "disgruntled/gruntled."

Speaking of Nick and Nora PJs, I was in Target over the weekend and saw the most adorable cowboy ones for kids! It was this pattern, but the background was red: [link] So damned cute!

You never hear about people being "censed" either.
Or "toxicated", but in this case, toxicated and intoxicated would be the same, right?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Of note for our beeristas: California Holiday Brews reviewed. I can only vouch for the Anchor special ale, but it is mighty tasty.

I've had the Anchor and the Sierra Nevada Celebration (both excellent), but the Widmer Brothers release looks AWESOME. Must find!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Well, there's always the closest Ogden Nash ever came to a dirty poem:
I had a dream; it was my own dream; I dreamt it.
I dreamt that my hair was kempt, and I dreamt that my true love unkempt it.

"In (blank), it is often foggy in Seattle and it rains a lot."
It's foggy, generally, in later autumn.
Also, wet.
Summers, however, are usually depressingly (for a gardener) dry, except for this last summer, which was depressingly (for a gardener) cold and wet.
