Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am trapped under the cat. No plans until later, but I should really clean the bathroom and shower and whatnot....

Happy birthdays to Maria and Kristin!!

Happy birthday, Kristin and Maria!

Now, off to do my dishes from yesterday and cook up my scrambled eggs for breakfast.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Hil, I can't work out if that would be ironic, appropriate, or if the two would cancel each other out.

It's so fuzzy and cute!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Have you guys ever heard of (or had) a cheese baby?

Not a cheese baby, but pizza babies were a regular part of my younger life.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I had scrambled eggs for breakfast! And I am cleaning my closet today, yes I am. I need to get to stepping if I want to achieve stuff, because I actually have obligations today and need to be somewhere by some time, and don't have the SO to herd me out the door at the appropriate moment.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I hadn't heard that term, but my sister and brother in law, who lived in Switzerland for a short time, had a big conversation about what you're supposed to drink with cheese fondue, presumably based on this debate.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

just don't eat bacon. Either way, try this one --

Just don't like bacon.

That sounds awesome too!

I am also still in my PJs. I thought I might need to get dressed and out of the house in order to eat breakfast (out of several crucial ingredients), but then I remembered I have something in the freezer I can eat.

Also, Happy Birthday Maria and Pix!
