Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Omg, best holiday convo ever. Toilet Paper And Also Family Scandals. I love you guys!

So far today I got up to feed smonster's cats and go grocery shopping for Xmas lasagna fixins. Then back to bed for napping. It's a cold dreary day out there, inspiring little more than that.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Bathroom tissue issues are exactly the sort of thing that family travel is fraught with. Like, when I run out the roll, where is the replacement? And if I have to ask for it, am I being a wasteful, extravagant tissue user?

It's possible I have issues. With my tissues.

X-post with Jen- I'm sorry about your mom! Hoping for quick and easy healing.

My tissue issues are with work. The big house, ie, the fancy office building where the executives are, has two-ply in all the restrooms. Here in the bunk house, ie, tech support, we have one-ply. Yes, I noticed. Yes, it irks.

Found a bag of crack on the sidewalk outside my dad's house this morning. So that was nice. I just steered the dog away.

Wow! I remember finding bags of pot outside my girlfriends house one day...I think she eventually smoked them.

I was just in the unflattering light of the airport bathroom, and my skin looks seriously awful. Wtf, face??

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

Oh Jen, Ithat is an awful way to spend the day.. I hope it all works out.

Thanks, Nora.

...she smoked the pot she found outside her house. That doesn't seem advisable.

Oh, I thought it was a horrible idea. Could've been laced with something. She claimed shed make a huge stoner friend of hers smoke some of it first. Uh huh.
