Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I'm very sorry, Kate. That's awful news.

move out and draw fire

Oh no, Kate, I'm so sorry. I saw the article about the accident. How horrible - all my thoughts are with you and your fiance and his family.

Which cookbook is it?

I don't have it in front of me, but Megan's Meal Memories? Something like that? It was sort of a memorial project for a woman who died suddenly, and sales went to support epilepsy. There are lists of favorite restaurants and markets and such in Melbourne included.

The status is NOT quo.

Damn. Byron is hiding and not eating much. Not eating is a very bad sign for him. Vet in morning.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I'm so very sorry, Kate. All my prayers are with your fiance and his family.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

vibing that it's just "OMG THERE'S A DAMN PUPPY IN MY HOUSE" stress and nothing more serious, Pix.

This too shall pass.

I'm so sorry, Kate. Peace and strength to all the loved ones.

Oh Kate, how awful. All sympathy to you and Mark and his family.

I have become one of you nail polish people after playing with the box of polish at brenda's place--I decided I liked the color I got done this weekend so much I had to hunt it down and buy it. Along with two others. Ay!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

\\o/!

ETA: I keep waiting for the damn box to get here. I've got four bottles to add, and if I do a msbelle-style culling, probably more. They're gonna wind up at Goodwill or the shelter if that box doesn't get here soon.

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

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

hoping it is just stressed kitty,Pix.

Now for some good news, at least for me. I started a new drug for diabetes last week. I wasn't excited- because I just didn't want to add another drug to my life. So far I am on a half does and the results are truly interesting.

to explain: I have been hungry all my life . With wicked cravings. I've done bunches to reduce the cravings , but nothing worked really well. this new drug increases insulin production and makes me feel full much sooner than normal. I've eaten 2 piece of pieces tonight. I feel very full - like I ate 5 pieces. Crossing my fingers that when I go up to full does I have none of the bad side effects. Because this is astonishing. ( I haven't done any testing yet, but logically it has to be doing something just because I am eating less)
