I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Double the muffins, double the fun, whitey? IDK, sounds right.

I kinda feel like baking, myself, but first I would have to clean the kitchen and wow do I not want to do that.

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

My cats sometimes play defense as I move from room to room, zigzaging in front of me, usually when I'm running late to go somewhere.

There's a movie theatre showing Dr. Strangelove tonight at 11:45. I am actually considering going, even though I am too lazy right now to get off my butt and go to the grocery store.

I need that when I turn my office into a guest room. How cool is that?!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

We went to the Opening Day of our friend A&H's two boys' Little League. It was really fun PLUS a totally LA experience. The tween team was playing in the field next to the 6-year-old team, so we went back and forth. As I walked from one field to the other, I heard these snippets:
"So, Jamie Foxx is just down the hall from my new office..."
"Warners is much nicer lot for parking."
"When I was working on 'Sunny,' we always used them."

and then I get to the other field and there was not only a Wayans brother cheering on his kid, there are a family watching in chairs with "Criminal Minds" on the back. This is such an industry town.

Even cats that didn't normally follow me around would object at a closed door. Everything is their territory. Their subjects are not allowed to shut them out.

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 yes. Lucy didn't follow me everywhere, but she considered a closed door an offence against god and nature.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

That's way more action than I get at little league games, Scrappy. Though I do hear Pixar scuttlebutt and the head of Autodesk is a coach in our league.

I'm just back from one of Emmett's games. He played well (double and a single, four RBIs, threw out a base stealer) and our team won. Our team's in second place, which is nice.

Then he had a tourney team practice and I left him to endure an hour plus long commute back across a crowded bridge and a half hour of can't-find-parking thanks to some fucking Stanford Football event across the street. (Checks calendar. Nope, not football season.)

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

bran muffins are in the oven. didn't completely use up any pantry items, but did make a dent in some. Malt-o-meal muffins are in the works, that will use up one box of malt-o-meal and make more of a dent into the baking staples.

I'll be having leftovers for dinner and mac is having a frozen meal. I should probably get some beans soaking to make this week since I am trying to have some every week.

I am watching a UFC match where one of the fighters looks for all the world like he's wearing Vicki Lawrence's old lady wig from Mama's Family.
