Huh. The tongs worked. That was easier than I'd expected.
Zoe: First rule of battle, little one. Don't ever let 'em know where you are. Mal: Whoo-hoo! I'm right here! I'm right here! You want some of me? Yeah, you do! Come on! Come on! Aaah! Whoo-hoo! Zoe: Of course, there are other schools of thought...

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

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
Just got back from work and picking up Dad's gift for tomorrow. Both the B&N and Omaha Steaks stores were packed today!! We were dead at the bookstore from 10-10:20, and then swamped until I finally clocked out at 2:15 (15 minutes late, but we had a line that we needed all three cashiers to handle).
Then I drove over to pick up Dad's gift--first time I'd ever been into an Omaha Steaks place. Got a lot of food for $50: 2 porterhouse steaks, 2 tenderloin steaks, 4 burgers, 4 stuffed potatoes, 2 chicken breasts, 2 of another kind of steak, and a free box of 6 burgers that I'm keeping for myself. Add to that the jar of honey raspberry mustard pretzel dipping sauce I got for myself, and I was rather happy with my haul.
Had to clean out my freezer to make room for all of these boxes. Time to do that anyway, the ground turkey and beef had been in there so long that they were dark brown with freezer burn.

I fail as a mom. I didn't make sure CJ had a card and something before he went to his dad's for the weekend. No Father's Day anything prepared. For as much as I'm looking forward to the X part of STBX, I'm still thankful for my kids. Blarg.

Trust my rage
I kind of failed too. I got Joe a gift but it doesn't do what he needs. I wanted to get a wafflemaker but we were at a wedding all day and I spent all day yesterday helping him update his clearance. (name, address and phone number of someone who knew him at every place we've lived the last 10 years, same thing for all his jobs, and his entire family, plus all our addresses). So I haven't had a free moment since Thursday. The kids made card and that will have to do.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I'm not asking for 100, just a few successive days of high 70s and sunshine.
From your lips to the shiny sky-orb, wherever it may be,
"Wow. What happened to you?"
"I burned my lips... on the Sun!"

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Today is my mother's birthday. Steph was supposed to remind me!
