Nah, just who you is.

I am not competitive, at all. Want to be right sometimes, sure, but eventually I end up WHATEVER. Driven home a lot recently, and funny that I end up drawn to people who are. It's a language I don't speak but keep falling into.

I know there are a lot of spider phobes (look away Jilli) but we have a giant spider that has spun a web on our porch above the bushes just opposite the front door. I love that spider. I look for it every morning and it's there. But in the afternoon it's gone. Then it's back in the evening.

Since the spider has been there, we have not had as many mosquitoes at the front door. So the spider is totally welcome.

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

I practiced yoga today with ita's Colin's ex-girlfriend today

Which one? The girlfriend he dated for a really long time?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Uh. Huh. Sure.

He *gave* me the Tigger that has grabbyhands. I mean, at the age where kids "give" you a lot of things, but did gave willingly. He reminds me of this every time he visits because I still have that Tigger. Clearly I was the better owner choice...

The Rubic's Cube I only borrowed for a few days at Christmas and then I made sure it was returned.

In my head, that makes sense.

The 24 one, ita. I also think of her as the one who got the house.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Kat, does she the spider look like this?

HA! dcp, I was like, No! the ex does NOT LOOK like that.

The spider is pretty small still, though growing fatter every day. And the web is huge.

It looks a lot like the one that used to build a web between K's motorcycle and the fence.

What is even happening?

amych is me, as regards solving the Rubik's cube.

Celebs have never done much for me. Can't extrapolate.

Celebs are people too.

Don't spank me, ita, but CFerg? That's about the only one that makes me look twice.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

But in the afternoon it's gone. Then it's back in the evening.

Does the spider appear to be leaving the web with a tiny lunch pail and hard hat? It might be a union spider and have a job to rush off to.

Or perhaps it's Charlotte. Has the web started spelling out messages?

I dunno, Steph. It's all a mystery. When it was (if it is the same one) over on K's motorcycle, she'd break the web every day and it would be re-made the next morning (eerie!) I checked the spider this afternoon and it looked like the web is gone, but I could have just been yoga-delirious and tired and not paying enough attention, though I did comment to K that it looked like the spider had moved out.

Yet, the spider was there around 6:00. It's a mystery.
