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

I was just going to say what Ginger did; two things, older. More than 2, oldest. Sorry!

Point up to Ginger's post re: nitpicking. What she said.

But...esp. when that conversation is a reply to a wedding invite. That's wrongest, er...wrong like a wrong thing.

Yeah, yeah, P-C. It's late, dude. Cut me a break. Let me change it to: I don't care.

Trust my rage

I have no idea what the real reason is for the lack of fleas but I have always thought it was the dryness of the climate. But I dont really know

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Let me change it to: I don't care.

Or, you know, the rules of grammar and logic do not apply to idiomatic phrases. That's what makes them idiomatic.

(Which is to say, "could care less" is a perfectly cromulent saying.)

Our wings are not tired.

I think there's something to that, -t. From what I understand they're also not a problem in Albuquerque? Don't know if that's altidude or roasted chile peppers though.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, we didn't have fleas here or in New Mexico. As soon as the Biscuit sets paws down in Indiana, though, he gets them and they drive him bonkers! So we hit the generic version of Frontline (Consumer Reports told me the patent expired recently and to buy the much cheaper generic!) as soon as we got to town this year and that helped a ton. But still didn't help with whatever "I'm allergic to the midwest" problem he developed that landed him at the vet all misery. But the antibiotic knocked it right down and he's fine.

Now that we're home, the big issues is the stickers. We seem to have turned the corner on the tumbleweeds, but there's another innocuous looking weed with attractive flowers that turns into tiny round bombs of pain.

JenP, your sister is being ridiculous.

JenP, your sister is being ridiculous.

Heh, yeah. She's really a lovely person, and on the big things, awesome. I mean, she's letting me stay with her right now until I move back to DC in a month or two. But, sometimes you just want to say, "Really??" And sometimes I do, but not on FaceBook. It's so funny, because I knew my other sister would see that and get irritated. Ah, fambly. So predictable.
