Every nightmare I have that doesn't revolve around academic failure or public nudity is about that thing. In fact, once I dreamt that it attacked me while I was late for a test and naked.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Your/you're/yore all the same when I say them. You're/your might become yer, but aren't distinct. Sorry.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I'm wearing grey right now and it's fucking great.

I totally write grey, but it's from my Anglophile phase.

And grey is the right color for my polish! I need to polish and I'll need to redo before this weekend, so I can do a color I want.

I am definitely petering out. I did complete all the laundry, but I still have my chore nemesis to do, the big putaway, which I have to do before I can go to bed.

Okay, so #10 was email bigwigs. One of whom emailed me back to say call him. I don't want to call him! That's a bigger onerous task now. And I got a return receipt from the PA of the other one. So at least I know it's in the building.

#11 was haul firewood. #12 was battery charger. #13 was dinner (turkey meatballs in homemade sauce over spaghetti squash, nom.) #14 was trip prep. #15 is laundry. Okay, no more putting that one off. And put away leftovers. And then I can be done.

hip deep in pie

1, 3, 7, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14, 17, 19 are male. 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 14, 15, 16, 18 are female. I don't kow why, they just are.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Maybe I meant the personality differences in numerals, like 2 is graceful and 5 is assertive and 7 is stuck-up.

Yes, I really do have issues with numbers.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Odd numbers are obviously better.

In Japanese, small round things are counted differently than long thin things. Punches and steps are considered long thin things. I don't want to add gender or any other complexity to numbers.

...OK, I'm not a big puncher, but I'd think of them as round things rather than long thin things. Huh.

Oh, and in re: cauliflower--I remembered I had butternut squash ravioli, so I cooked that up, shredded some cheese (parrano) over it, and tossed it together.

Because books.

Even numbers are better! They're all equal and balanced!

I think of 7 as a seductress.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Okay, so #10 was email bigwigs. One of whom emailed me back to say call him. I don't want to call him!

If his wig is big enough, he probably wouldn't even hear the phone.

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

I didn't do any of my onerous tasks this evening. FAIL. I've decided to do as many of them as I can from work tomorrow.

Probably the cutting of the tail holes in diapers will still need to be done at home.
