"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Except, David, she edited at 10:30 AM and you posted at 11:57 AM, so not so much with gaslighting you.

I have mopped the kitchen and the bathroom floors. I need to do the living room and bedrooms and hallway then the floors will be done for another week. Then I have to fold laundry and take the kids to a babyshower. I like taking my kids to showers because I think it instills a sense of buyer's remorse in the pregnant woman.

My kids = a warning.

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

Yep, I was thinking about her radish and hummus diet for Le Miz.

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

That's her point after she edited it!

Yeah, THIRTY WHOLE SECONDS LATER.

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

Oh, my motherfucking god. I'm an adult. I know that if I incrementally tidy, and just not mess stuff up so much, tidying is less of an absolute chore. But--good god. I'm actually dizzy right now. And I wish I had another morningstar muffin.

My sister just sent me this video: [link] which, if nothing else, wins the prize for most awkward completely literal title.

I have to find out who these people are.

I also think about how if I just dd a bit every day my place would be neater. But I don't.

I signed up for a sewing class at the local store. Apparently it's meant only for skinny hipsters-- they only carry the small size pattern, which only goes to about a size 8. I felt like a complete bitch when the very large woman at the register was like "no, I'm sure it'll fit you! Let me measure you" and I had to be like "I know my measurements and those aren't it, but go ahead--yes, indeed, I have hips bigger than the biggest size on there" and she was like "well, I'm, I'm sure the teacher can show you how to adapt? You seem mad" and I'm like "well, yes. I am. You offer four different patterns for this class, and don't think anyone not skinny will take it??"

I mean, I'm only a couple inches bigger, so it's probably not a huge deal--but what if I wore actual plus sizes? I mean, seriously. What's the point of a pattern if it's like eight inches off my actual measurements or something?

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

More flash flood warnings. Even though my area should be fine I'm glad I'm done with my outside chores.

Shhhhushhhhh, Tom.

We just had a huge thunder bumper that shook the whole apartment building. Both cats are snuggled close to me, only startling on the HUGE rolls of thunder. They don't even twitch for the regular claps.
