So does this mean a wild-eyed Sherwin Williams clerk will assume I'm looking for the Color out of Space if I go to buy another can of vibrant violet and start shouting "THE STARS ARE RIGHT!" at me?
Yup. And then Cthulu will eat your face!
Every nightmare I have that doesn't revolve around academic failure or public nudity is about that thing. In fact, once I dreamt that it attacked me while I was late for a test and naked.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Also, my team lost in the last round of bar trivia, after leading at the beginning. Bah!
Which bar trivia is this? Never mind!

"You were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter, and my daddy said stay away from Juliet." I keep hearing it on the radio, and have no idea what it's supposed to mean.
I had to run a Google search on those lyrics to discover it's Taylor Swift, and therefore not worth any attempt to parse, personally.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
bon, I was so excited that I was going to be on a winning team! But alas, we only won best team name.

I acquired a temporary cat, which was left inside a locked room at my house last night. Can I find it now? I will have to go on hoping that I haven't lost it for now.
Frank, my aunt found Lupus: The First Year a really really helpful book (and it's by a friend of mine, too, which is another zing in its favor -- I had a real double-take when I saw it lying on the coffee table at my aunt's). While lupus isn't "curable" it's often manageable, and your sister will find that a bunch of things that have been bothering her can be correctly mitigated, now. It IS a better diagnosis than cancer by about 1000% percent!

Theo, thanks for the recommend; I'll pass that along. I think, other than the timing vis-a-vis her job, she's actually grateful to have a name to attach all the seemingly random things that have been ailing her and a possible way to improve them.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Juggles flaming chainsaws.
That help, Emily?
Yeah, sorry, it's all I've got.
Frankenbuddha, much ~ma for your sister. Bit of a coincidence, I was just explaining to my boss yesterday why "it's never lupus".
Still sending ~ma for ita.
