Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My mother bought some just-picked strawberries yesterday, and OMG YUM. Too bad I only got one!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

::clapclapclap:: Good one, Erin. All of that is right on.

I sometimes give excellent advice that I myself don't always take.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Hee. That is a worrisome mousetrap.
 
That was a terrible link. But since it was an ita link and she warned me not to click, I guess it`s my own fault.
 
And yeah, I get feeling that way too, and the 5 things is a good way to move forward.
 
Is anyone watching The Race?

Why are all you insurance estimator types working on a holiday Sunday! And why aren't you smart enough to figure out your problems on your own! This was supposed to be a dead quiet day!

The upside of that is, at least you know the right words, even when you can't always hear them.... By which I mean, ditto.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

What Erin Said. Also, timers are awesome. Pick one thing (at random, if necessary), set a timer, and work on it for 15 min. or 10 or 5. And listen, from the lady who is ridiculously grateful for your job-saving wakeup calls, sometimes we need help on the most ordinary things. IOW, your phone is about to ring.

Indeed...It's the extraordinary things we rise to. It's scrubbing the toilet that defeats us.

I just - well, examined my toilet carefully, and decided it does not need scrubbing! AIFG!

(The other one, the one the three year old uses, does. Note me here, not scrubbing it.)
