Angel: I appreciate you guys looking out for Connor all summer. It's just—he's confused. He needs time. That's all. Fred: Right. Time, and some corporal punishment with a large heavy mallet. Not that I'm bitter.

I totally have "Hush little baby.." stuck in in my head. My neighbor and his daughter were at the pool same time I was, and we walked back together. She had a little stuff heart that played it over and over and over and over.... Heh.

For all the time I spend in a swimsuit, and for all the people who only see me in a swimsuit, sorta weird talking to the neighbor wearing one. It's outside our frame of reference!

JESUS. I thought I was posting less, not posting from work very often.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I have had Alison Karuas singing "Down to the River to Pray" stuck in my head for 5 days now.

“Not dead yet!”

I've been stuck with Jason Mraz's live version of "Beautiful Mess."

There are far worse things with which to be earwormed.

Problem with the lullabye is I don't know the whole thing. Can't get past "diamond ring don't shine" so I start making things up and it gets really ridiculous. "...buy you a ball of twine. And if that ball of twine don't tie, mama's gonna buy you a great big pie. And if that great big pie tastes sour, mama's gonna buy you a pot of....flour." And it just gets worse. I once managed to get to cranky goat, but I'm not sure how.

Wow, that's better than I would do, sara!! (Somehow i always end up at "gonna buy you a ...diamond mine!" but then I don't know where to go from there. IF that mine don't....produce??)

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'm waiting for people to come by, sipping on an iffy attempt at a champagne cocktail. Substituting prosecco for champers doesn't bother me, but apparently there's a world-wide shortage of Angostura bitters? So I substituted Underberg because I could get my hands on it, and the resulting fizzy, herbal concoction is tasty. I'm just not sure it's what Rachel Maddow described as a champagne cocktail. As deprivations go, this really isn't. And I'm expecting to have a smonster and an amyth in my living room nowish, so life is good.

I owe it all to Dr. Seuss.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Isn't it "diamond ring turns glass" or something like that? Then, mama's gonna buy you a....big fat ass.

That can't be right.

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

I've had OK Go's "This too shall pass" in my head the last few days. Probably because I've watched the videos umpteen many times.
