Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.

Fridges fitting is important. When my landlord replaced my fridge, he picked one that cannot be opened all the way (the counter island blocks the door). One of the many things I hate about my kitchen.

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

OMG, massive fail on the sleep meds yesterday. Just, fail.

hip deep in pie

oh how much do I wish I could be there for space arranging.

You wish? I wish!

The complication now is that the date to pick up old fridge is two weeks after the new one is delivered. I may go back to Sears and see if delivery date can change. I'll probably have to put the old one in the living room until its picked up.

So after the market, I did the TJs and Target run, got home in time to head over to the marathon and cheer on the runners. Saw my friends who were running the half and got to cheer for random strangers. Note: at mile 22, runners REALLY are grateful for cheering. And this mile 22 is particularly brutal because it is a hill, probably one of the worst hills in the race. A favorite cheer was "You HATE this HILL! There's the top!" A lot of people start walking/stopping right after it. And, of course, collapsing. As I was leaving, a woman was being loaded onto stretcher.

At one point, I was standing next to a woman with a very popular sign. It got a lot of smiles. It read "Who needs toenails anyway?" A lot of bantering went on.

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

I was hoping that wouldn't be the case, ita, but I kinda suspected it.

Traz really holds no candle to Ambien, IMO.

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

New Natter! YAY.

I woke up with energy that hasn't deserted me yet, so now I am trying to decide if I want to get dressed and go to TJs, or do some cleaning and make mashed potatoes.

It's an odd choice, but it's what I've got today.
