Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I puked pretty regularly the first night of vacation and Christmas night as a child. But that's because we never had candy/cookies/soda in the house!

Parents: Do not deprive your children in this way! It will only lead to pukey childen on holidays!!

t insert something about our house being the opposite of Jesse's except for the soda. This week alone we have had milkshakes, cookies of multiple varieties, maple oat scones (as well as steamed veggies, grilled chicken and brown rice).

Do you ever type a post and realize, "no one cares" and then delete it? That is me right now. I might blame the Darvocet, Flexeril combo though.

I do that, but only have my natural brain chemistry to blame.

For example, instead of going to bed like a sane person, danced around my front room to Lily Allen, Carbonleaf and JEM. Because I could.

Being sane now, g'night.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

All the time. I'm so neurotic I usually delete it before I post.

WRT to the wheat, I find that I am happier with whole grains than with highly refined flours. The refined ones can clog my system a bit, DH's too. But I would cry if I had to cut out wheat entirely.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

This link has two awesome videos.

1st video is of a 20-story trebuchet that flings flaming pianos and a compact car.

2nd one is Cherpumple: The Franken-Kaiju Pie-Cake From Hell (Both videos at this link)

What they're comparing this next invention to is a turducken. The dessert equivalent thereof. Well, this guy--Charles Phoenix--is like our friend from across the pond with a trebuchet: thinking big. Big and ludicrous. And we respect that.

Because books.

All the time. I'm so neurotic I usually delete it before I post.

I totally do that.

Half the time anymore I just write the post in my head.

Back from Christmas travels. Twelve hours in the car today, all told, but now at least I HAVE MY OWN BED.

OK, seriously, is this like the worst xkcd ever? [link]

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

That is not romance, sarcasm, math, or language beyond the most basic.

Just wait. Tomorrow he'll do a strip of him addressing his fans directly: "Yesterday's post was done in the persona of evil xkcd-guy, from the Star Trek 'Mirror Mirror' alternate reality."
