Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

There are a lot of disturbing ideas in the pledge that the FAMiLY Leader is asking Republican candidates to take, among them the idea being gay is a choice (presumably heterosexuality’s totally genetic), or the statement that sex is inherently better after marriage. But I think it’s worth singling out the part of the pledge where candidates who take the pledge — to this date, only Michele Bachmann — promise that they’ll provide “humane protection of women and the innocent fruit of conjugal intimacy..from human trafficking, sexual slavery, seduction into promiscuity, and all forms of pornography and prostitution, infanticide, abortion, and other types of coercion or stolen innocence.”

Michele Bachmann’s Pornography Pledge

Anyway, even if the economy goes to hell, I don't see how Bachmann could win against Obama. She just scares too many people.

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

I have just spent a huge amount of time trying to decide what shoes to wear today, and then I came out into my living room and my cowboy boots were lying right there and they won again. It's like a sucker's bet, really. My poor other boots.

Anyway. Off to get some gas and steal a writer's room.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

last day at bad job. Boss has only been in for about 45 min. joy. I have done all the work I can and so I am just gonna play online (AGAINST THE RULES!, shhh, don't tell).

In fact, I already mapped out the drive from here to the closest Home Goods! hee.

Much moving and business ~ma, JenP! We miss you around here! Although Rehoboth is not so far away from me ...

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Ugh, I'm stuffed. Had most of a chicken breast, a few green beans, and about half of a piece of corn bread. I probably should have skipped the bread, because my stomach is just aching now.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

People keep thanking me for my patience. It's good that they can't hear my internal monologue of "OMG WHY DO YOU KEEP ASKING ME QUESTIONS IT'S NOT THAT DIFFICULT."

Because books.

"OMG WHY DO YOU KEEP ASKING ME QUESTIONS IT'S NOT THAT DIFFICULT."

That's my internal monologue sometimes with Sara. I wish I could create a daily "no questions" time.
