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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Radishes are also yummy pickled.

Atten Hec: Zepplin in the sky:

Thanks, Sue! Historypin is cool.

Go CJ!

Emmett and I will be heading over to Best Buy to spend an old gift card, and enjoy my favorite taco truck which is parked near their lot.

I expect he will either buy the Hangover or Teen Titans S3 (which is the only season we don't own for some reason).

Love, Emeline's text. I got bsgety immediately but couldn't parse Shef because it just made me think of the baseball player Gary Sheffield.

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

Shef had me stumped too.

How high are you supposed to raise your knees in the standing march test?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

We have smart people here - exactly how much mucus/phlegm can one body continue making for TWO FLIPPING WEEKS?? Seriously. Kleenex called me yesterday to thank me for their significant raise in early 3rd quarter profit numbers.

I read it as Yiddish for a minute.

I have both been there and gotten the phone call. And I will repeat what I always say: if the human body doesn't ordinarily just have massive amounts of snot waiting to be blown out, then when you have a cold, WHERE DOES IT COME FROM?!? And my conclusion is that it's not snot, but braiiiiiiiiiiiins that you're actually blowing out.

(I know, the body makes snot in response to the cold/allergies/etc., but I like my explanation better.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Not overly high.

Then I am in serious effing danger of having a noggin filled with spinal fluid. TWO WEEKS.

Again, I feel your pain. I hate colds/plagues/whatever that last that long.

I read somewhere once that the reason the ancient Egyptians just pulled out and discarded the brain instead of preserving like other vital organs was that they believed that the inside of the head was pretty much just a mucus factory.

Certainly there have been times when I can understand the logic there.
