How can I not go with a Jilli approved plan? I even have some berries I need to use up to eat with them, so it will be healthy!

Totes healthy.

Okay, I need to get away from the internets and put the next round of bleach on the streaks in my hair. Yes, this is what I do for fun.

I am having a nail crisis -- have been biting again. So I thought a brighter color might help, and now I'm considering polka-dots.

Go to the drug store and get one of the bottles of Wet & Wild crackle/shatter/whatever they're calling it. Comes in all sorts of wacky colors.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

And inevitably, 5 minutes after I finish, Tim wanders in with 2 days' worth of dirty lunch tupperware from his work bag.

Yeah, I walked in the media room just now and found Dave's ice cream bowl from last night. Boo. It was a nice feeling for a moment, though. I also think people should stop wearing so many damn clothes, and also maybe not sleep on the sheets. For values of people that include Dave & I and the dog. About the sheets. The dog doesn't wear any clothes.

Those puppy cupcakes adorbs.

The SO is back from electronics recycling, and I am feeling happy about it. He also went by the farmers market and got two bags of granola and an eggplant, and ordered a birdhouse and a box of canning tomatoes for next week. I'm going to wish I had that Foley masher by then. Well, actually, there's a whole tomato mill I want, but I can't afford it. But it'll give me time to get my bottles in order.

Oh, yeah, my nails are Nubar Vaso, for very similar reasons. AND I'm wearing a purple t-shirt today. I am about as coordinated and feminine as I ever get. Which is not very much.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I also want to get some of the skinny-brush kind. But not now -- I just realized why I think it's night time -- it just got pitch dark outside! Come on, Irene!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Also, typing that about the biting made me realize how anxious I am for no good reason, and have been for a while. If the storm coming through doesn't fix it, I'll call my therapist on Monday for an appointment. I have a feeling it's only going to get worse over the next two weeks.

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

One adult fail thing taken care of! This must be my doctor's weekend on call, because she refilled the prescription already.

I possibly bought way too much stuff at TJs. Shopping for a party hungry? EVERYTHING seems like a good idea. It was surprisingly civilized: there were no lines! But the rain had started about 90 minutes earlier,so.

Contemplating cleaning. Was going to tomorrow, but not like I am doing anything else until later tonight!

OK, gonna enter my lap times, tidy and start cleaning.

Good for you, Jesse. It's hard to recognize that stuff sometimes.

If I were in the Hamptons, I'd be partying. But since I'm home, I'm partying anyway.

Teppy, I must thank your fine city for providing me with the nectar known as Twisted Tea. Half a bottle and I am feeling noooo pain. And you would not know this is not just tea. It tastes like just tea, but it definitely has alcohol in it. Whoooboy, does it.

Now, to get back to trying to write 10,000 words of Big Bang before Sept. 1st.
