OMG, I got so cranky right at the end of the work day.

I didn't, because I got to go have dinner with shrift and aurelia.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Lucky!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Brenda (and shrift and aurelia)=lucky

Today was stupid. I wish to sneer at it and then exchange it for yesterday.

Not unrelatedly, if you left the yogurt you meant to take to work on the counter for oh, 10 hours, you probably should just toss it, right?

Hey Burrell, have you read The Memory Keeper's Daughter? There's a character whose name is one letter off from yours.

If you haven't received your state refund already, or don't receive it by 01 February, California is going to hold on to your money for a while.

Fucking hell, you guys. He's really President. That first picture, of him walking into the Oval Office from outside? It just hit me all over again, that this is really real.

I'm giddy and teary all over again.

This is really real!

My President covers all bases, has a sense of humor, reaches out to us unwashed masses, counts me as a citizen,knows the internets... goddamn, am I dreaming?

I WILL be disappointed. I know. But even a morsel seems like a feast, and I'm being given an appetizer.

I think it will take me a while to get over Really? No, REALLY??

Hey Burrell, have you read The Memory Keeper's Daughter? There's a character whose name is one letter off from yours.
