Interesting choice of the Jefferson portrait in the background.
I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

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

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
OMG you guys I am so cranky. I spent from 8:00am to 3:00pm at the music store today for a total of 2 half hour lessons at 10:30 & 11:00. There is no fucking reason I had to be there longer than an hour, and yet? I was.
AND THEN we get home and the SO crashes out and I wake him up AS REQUESTED and he's cold and tired and cranky at me because I suggested he might have been better off to have gone with me and the dog for our walk. Which would have gotten him warm and his blood moving and nice day and open air. BUT NO! And why is he cranky? Because he's overextended himself. Surprise, surprise.
Harumph.
And now I'm going to clean the whole house during the six hours he'll be gone tonight playing bass. It should go well, because I clean well cranky.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
cranky is the best for cleaning. Angry is bad because you throw things. Sad, well you move to slow. Bored, well we know what happens. Happy -- what dirt? Cranky -- it is easy to be fussy and focused and not let that dirt defeat you.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Michelle Obama is gorgeous.
I finally picked up my comic pull after a month and the comic guy tried to sell me a Spike Smile Time puppet. Not for $65.
I had a Baconator for dinner. I may or may not regret that.

I got The Graveyard Book from the library. I guess I can read it tonight!

We were supposed to start pulling up the last of the carpet today. But DH is helping a friend with a collapsing floor. So maybe not today....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
You know, there's something satisfying about spending the day in a room full of nerds.
And I'm apparently doing better than I did last year (so far)! I think I'm 289 out of 680, and I ended last year 350ish out of 700ish.
AND I'm currently full of Indian food after a lovely dinner with my cousin.
Good times.

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