This kid was also walking at something like five months old, and able to walk up and down stairs before he was a year old.
Jayne: That's a good idea. Good idea. Tell us where the stuff's at so I can shoot you. Mal: Point of interest? Offering to shoot us might not work so well as an incentive as you might imagine.

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

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I can't find the best pictures to illustrate it, but when I was told that Ed Quinn doesn't hit the gym, he just looks like that, I was envious on behalf of many men.
lithe young thing just does whatever I can't do, which some days, feels like everything
Don't get me started about the young. You're the young.

HA. I might be young, relatively. But, ita, these are like 19 year olds. One of my favorite instructors is pregnant and for the first time she has breasts. I've been like, "SEE! This pose? If you have boobs it's impossible. and now you can't do it either!"
Anyhow, I should go to bed but (a) I'm not sleepy and (b) I have work to do and (c)I'm reeling for the horrible terrible no good very bad thing that was in the diaper pail.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I am so tempted to ask you what it was Kat, but I know I'd regret it.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo
hahahaha. I was going to tell you but I've redacted the details which just point out what a slatternly cloth diaperer I am. Frankly it was so bad, I'm tempted to scrap the cloth entirely and go to disposables. I'm just DONE with the diapers and wish this little boy would get on the potty train (pun actually not intended).
But when Grace comes home, she'll be in disposables because she always has been and she is mostly formula fed and part of her life is prune juice and part of it is that terrible iron supplement.

At forty, I consider each year younger than me to be a huge advantage that I no longer have. And really, I nearer 41 these days. Maybe my mojo's gone. Maybe I don't bend in those ways any more. It would be a while before I'd start competing against anyone else--I'll be competing against the me of 1.5 years ago. She was strong and she was flexible. And two dress sizes bigger.
I'm trying a yoga class at the krav place tomorrow morning. We'll see if my head falls off.

I hope your head stays on.
Most people aren't competitive about yoga, as one should not be.
LA Times did a big thing on the Pioneer Woman. I've always wondered if she had major sponsorship given the prizes she gives out. Interesting to learn that some come from her earnings on the site.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Speaking of McDonald's, here's a density map.
It's kind of crazy to be able to see highways on there.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
Skipped to vent.
I don't know if you heard it, but this summer was the most violent summers Israel has known wrt inner violences, murders, etc..
The current hype is blame it on minors who drink.
Stop. Breath. This is one of the Not Enough WTF in the World cases.
Let's ignore how violent and confusing the country I live in became (or always was, but I'm guessing that the internet revolution actually confused and didn't merged in in Israel as well as it could be). Let's ignore that my country is pretty much living of the fumes of the fuel it once had, fragmented and hurt by much of globalization process that happened the last 30 years or so. Let's ignore the destruction of the middle class in Israel, which caused a lot of "normal" families to drop under the constantly-shifted-to-make-Israel-look-better-in-global-polls poverty line.
Yeah, let's just ignore all these processes that are rotting the society of the experiment I live in, and blame it only on underage drinking. Or Jewish girls dating Arabs. Or dysfunctional families.
Because it's "them", those weirdos. Not "us", the Sabra. We're OK, and always have been, and no, have no idea what happened to us.

LA Times did a big thing on the Pioneer Woman. I've always wondered if she had major sponsorship given the prizes she gives out. Interesting to learn that some come from her earnings on the site.
I read her blog semi-regularly (mostly the photography section), and whenever a contest's prize is sponsored by someone else (Microsoft, Snapfish, etc.), she says so, fairly prominently. And when it's not, she says something like "I have no affiliation with KitchenAid; I just love their mixers more than life itself," etc.
Which is nifty.
