Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
But, you know, it was like the equivalent of "Me and her ain't going to that party" or whatever -- stuff that's objectively wrong, but still the way actual people talk.
If it was something like that, I'd feel better about stetting it, but in this case, she was correct and it was just an easy mistake on my part-- a difference between an "e" at the end of the word versus an "a" that changes the tense.
Well bless my soul, mac actually ate food I had cooked. BBQ chicken to be precise. miracles do happen. of course he also wanted fries, so the oven is on, but that means I also went ahead and made muffins. More baking items out of the pantry. I've started boxing up the unopened pantry items that have no chance of getting used.
also made more jello for mac, that will be dessert for the week.
Yay for miracles, msbelle.

I hadn't noticed anything until I went to put a t-shirt on, and then it was like I had rolled around in old cigar butts or something. It's definitely only what I washed. Now I'm going around smelling things to rewash because wearing them is intolerable.
That sounds nast. And weird.

You're absolutely right and I know this. I was just having a minor freak out, since I'm also at the "OMIGAWD THIS WHOLE BOOK SUCKS!" stage. Also, needed protein.
But since you're around, megan, is bebe accented with acute or grave marks? I've seen both, but the grave doesn't seem right to me.

It is. I just hope it's not the dryer (drier?) Now they both look weird.
