I was listening to a Fresh Air from last week on my way here, and they were talking about Emily Dickinson, and brought up the meter thing, and mentioned the Yellow Rose of Texas and Amazing Grace. So now I have the theme from Gilligan's Island in my head, with various inappropriate lyrics.
Harrow: You didn't have to wound that man. Mal: Yeah, I know, it was just funny.
'Shindig'
Natter 66: Get Your Kicks.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Happy birthday, Zenkitty!
Happy birthday, Ouise!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Is there some little useful-but-not-necessary-item that you lack, whose very lack bedevils you to the point of sighing wistfully and saying, "Gee, I really wish I had a [item] ?
Pressure cooker.
Also, you can get a slotted spoon for about $2 at Target. Treat yourself.

I hope the flight went well, msbelle!
Smonster, are you still looking for swinsuits? Lands End is having a sale right now.
I just bought a few suits for Jamaica, all one size smaller than I am right now, since I am going to try to get back on the diet between now and then.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Since I was born at 10am on the East Coast, in fifteen minutes I will be 47. Cool. Today I will dye my hair, go to lunch with my niece and her boyfriend, and then go buy a refrigerator. Yay!

Ann, that's a ferret.
Happy Birthday, Ouise!
Happy Birthday, Zenkitty!
Good luck moving, msbelle! I doubt you're in much of a position to do it for much of the flight, but our cats don't meow nearly as much when traveling if they can look out a window, or if we can reach into the carrier to pet them. (Of course, that latter can have consequences. No matter how small we open the zipper for the hand to reach in, Max manages to get out.)
