The smartest sock-related thing I've ever done was buy multi-packs of white and black socks. I think I had to get men's. But it makes it so much easier!
I should still cull more of the rest of them.
See, in my fantasy, when I'm kissing you... you're kissing me. It's okay. I can wait.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, most of mine are black mens athletic socks bought in bulk. Or black sheer knee-highs.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I took the day off work to take my visiting 82-year-old mom out to Orange County to have lunch with her 89-year-old friend. Very nice and her friend is still lively of mind, but, lord, two elderly ladies do everything very SLOOOOOOWLY. Getting into the car and out of the car and into the restaurant and deciding what to eat--endless. Plus it was a 90-minute drive each way, so that was today for ya. Not really onerous, but definitely time consuming.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
My onerous task for today was making a fool of myself in front of upper management.
Did...did they make you wear a sombrero?
That's an awfully *specific* example. What kind of places *have* you worked, Hec?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I am now eating cornbread and drinking wheat beer. Nummy!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I forgot to buy clementines at the store today. But I do have clementine soda. So that's something.

I put all my dirty socks in a mesh bag, wash them in the bag
I do this, too! And I wrangled socks today as well. that was before I succumed to the cold again and napped a lot.

I have clementines. I just ate 2. My god, I'm chatty. I guess not being in the office means I have excess chat.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Clementines and banana for fruit
vegetarian shepards pie for lunch
dinner looks like split pea soup - not strictly vegetarian. possibly with a salad

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
The gorgeous white fluffy snowflakes we had this morning have turned to what sounds like hail outside (more likely just ice). I predict a superfun walk to the bus tomorrow morning.
