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

You know, I just realized that I ordered something from Zappos the other day, and they didn't upgrade me to free overnight shipping. I wonder why not.

Aurelia, not at all! I'm cutting all the denim into 2 inch strips, then stitching them back together to braid a rug like this: [link]

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

I used to tease my Jewish-and-didn't-eat-pork roommate that kosher laws aren't pick'n'choose.

If s/he was Reform, yes they are. Choosing which parts of traditional Jewish law to observe based on what's meaningful to you as an individual is pretty much the core of Reform Judaism.

In Cash's case, it was an honest mistake and so I think a simple apology is all that's necessary. But this:

They obvs don't keep totally kosher

Is completely irrelevant, and not up to a third party to decide.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Cool! I've got some that were too worn to donate anywhere.

Those are the perfect kind, Aurelia. They will get a new life this way.

Oh man. K just got the sick that I had yesterday. I hope Noah doesn't get it.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Like I said in the next paragraph, he was just being a pain in the ass. I assure you. He wasn't Reform, his entire practice of Judaism was that he just didn't want pepperoni when we ordered pizza. Like I also said in the next paragraph, I've since known other people who observe in different ways. It's fascinating.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm not going to send it, but I made it anyway.

It made me laugh, Cash.
