Nah, I’m just klutzy.

Because books.
Does anyone know offhand the driving time between L.A. and Palo Alto, especially if you're a fairly fast driver?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
My favorite mug is one I bought with my employee discount at Starbucks probably 13 years ago. It's oversized and kind of conical, and has pictures of asparagus on it.
The mugs at the office are Crate & Barrel, and and are very nice. Also oversized, to the point where when the SAP trainer guy came over from the UK office, he used them as an example of how weirdly big everything is in NYC as opposed to London. (His exact words were something like "You all do know that this is a MASSIVE amount of coffee, right?????")

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My brain has not wrapped itself properly around how few states there are on this coast. I've driven from mostly top to bottom in the Michigan longitude, and down from NY (actually originating in Montreal) to Florida, but I don't have the parallel experience for this side of the country, so I can't properly envision how few state lines there are. I've flown from LA to SF, so my brain keeps insisting it's right next door. Or upstairs, I guess.

Right now my favorite thing is that Dylan has a friend over and they are playing Lego Star Wars in the other room and I am lounging in bed with my iPad. Five year-old playdates are SO MUCH EASIER than toddlers, I can't even tell you. (Aeryn is at the park with her dad. HEAVEN.)

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
What does it say about me (or my neighborhood) that I can always tell the difference between gunfire and fireworks?
I usually have a pretty good idea, but the sound is a little different after bouncing off several brick buildings.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
"You all do know that this is a MASSIVE amount of coffee, right?????")
And did he say this like it was a BAD thing????
