My grandparents taught me that as em-eye-"crooked letter"-"crooked letter"-eye-"crooked letter" etc, etc. Do not know why.
I remember that too, but the "ess"es were smoother.
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.

And I was all, "Just wait... I promise you, someone will know or be able to find out."
The combined power of Buffistas is a mighty thing.

Hey, Amy, did you see the responses about good yoga dvds on my fb post?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yeah, the jays will totally dive bomb cats and taunt them. Always cracked me up as a kid. Still does as an adult.

I have to collect them, lisah. And thank you for reminding me!

He's called a Stellar's Jay and is the provincial bird of British Columbia.
Huh. The things you learn from Buffistas, even though you've lived in British Columbia your entire life. I didn't really even know we had an official bird.
Carry on.

We had a cat once that would sprawl out with her belly exposed just inside the sliding glass door and taunt bluejays into colliding with it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
In other random news, I am so out of the NBA loop. I keep seeing ads for games on TNT and not believing they are real teams. The Bobcats? The Thunder??

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Charlotte got the Bobcats after NOLA got the Hornets after Utah got the Jazz. I think.
