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

I like taking my kids to showers because I think it instills a sense of buyer's remorse in the pregnant woman.

Bwahahahahahaha.

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.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

We had locusts last month, here. Well, grasshoppers, but clouds of them threatening the crops.

It's one of those movies, PC, like Die Hard.

That is all.
