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

I don't know whether to laugh or melt with pity at what Liv (and you) had to go through today. Poor both of you!

I'm getting the pig!

It took a while, but now a 1 mg dose can usually ensure I sleep easily the whole night.

Huh. Definitely something to keep in the back of my mind. Do you take it regularly or just sporadically?

You know, I think that using the word sporadically will remind me of Brittany Murphy for the rest of my life.

You forgot barefoot. Dancing around in leather pants BAREFOOT.

I did! But only because he was barefoot for a while before the leather pants scene and I took the barefoot for granted. Bad Nicole!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

You know, I think that using the word sporadically will remind me of Brittany Murphy for the rest of my life.

The two are linked in my mind as well.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Laugh, JZ! It turned out well and we're making jokes like crazy.

java, I've seen you fret about your pups, so I know you weren't cavalier about it. I was trying to be concerned without seeming like a worry wart. DH told me tonight he felt bad because he probably wouldn't have taken her into the doctor until it caused a problem. When we went into the ped this morning I honestly expected her to give us a laxative and tell us to wait it out.

Our wings are not tired.

Well your instinct proved correct, Cash! And I am so glad she's none for the worse.

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

Wow! That penny was well and truly stuck! Good call, mom.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I went to the book release party for my friend Sean's new physics book, and was promptly introduced to Collin Ferguson.

And the dude who played Q on Star Trek.

I was occasionally introduced as "Allyson, she's an internet personality."

This is my new favorite intro.

Very handsome. And much cleaner in the second shot. You almost hate to see them grow up if they're going to forget how to slather cake all over themselves.

There's a lot to be said for mother's intuition, Cash. I'm glad you listened to yours and followed through with the appt, even while thinking the penny might already be on its way out.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Hee. You are so an internet personality.

I'm so glad the penny is unstuck and Liv is safe.

The planes were probably part of the BCS game intro, I bet. Crazy game, fwiw.

Random: Someone at the grocery store was buying a ton of pork roasts that were on sale and gave one to D. Expensive, even on sale! So tonight we had my mom's apple jelly chili pork roast. It was delish, and I cooked it perfectly if I do say so myself. Tender and moist and nom.
