OMG, your dad!
I am confused by "seneschal."
Who with the what now?
Spike: Ladies. Come on in. Plenty of blood in the fridge, don't be shy. Dawn: You mean like, real blood? Spike: What do you think? Dawn: Mostly I think, 'Eew!'
'Potential'

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Seneschals are often confusing. Fortunately, one can also often bap them on the head.
(this may make no sense to anyone not in the SCA.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
There's a wild cat that seneschal makes me think of.
BT, the French thing was mainly a second language familiarity. Why would you tack 'way' on the end of it anyway? Also, she was irritating.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Usually the subject line is the name of the person/pet, and a terse single line inside.
Oh god, he and my mom should start a club! Only she just goes one step further and just puts in the subject line "Uncle Woody died."
Like I want to click that e-mail.

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

Heh. In hindsight, I should have been more curious why people always seemed to say "segue-way" and never just "segue". It's a bit of a giveaway. In my defence, this is the same "people" that replaces "tenets" with "tenants" and thinks "alot" is a perfectly cromulent word.
In conclusion, It's not "mare", Jude-a-Murph, it's "may-or".

It would be better if he put it all in the subject line...
Scrubbed out the indoor recycling bin. Considering everything I put in there has been washed and/or is dry to begin with, it gets remarkably gross.

Compassionately intolerant
I already started trying to feed Oz pumpkin this weekend, as a low fat replacement for some of his food. It's not going that well, but if he's hungry enough, he'll eat it.
Tuna water or chicken broth might help make the pumpkin more appealing.
For dogs, I recommend green beans and other fiber-y veggies as low cal fillers.

I felt so smart, like when I figured out a "Who Wants to be a Millionaire?" question that "karaoke" means "empty orchestra" because it has the same first syllable as "karate,", which means "empty hand."
You know, unless you have the kanji you can't really be sure that a similar syllable means the same thing. . .
