Was this where we were talking about not typing apostrophes in iOS? I do that, ftr. I noticed this morning that it makes deciding if I have used the right "it's" harder.
You want to meet the real me now?

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

Punishingly Intricate
I did manage to leave the house to get to the market. First corn of the year there! Now it is pouring and we are still thinking of going to Artscape since maybe it will be good practice for when we are in England in the fall?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Liese, did you explain why Hiro Protagonist should not be called Hiro and I missed it? I am asking and rushing out of the house, so rude, but I didn't want to forget again.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Hec, next time you speak to Emmett, share with him this quote from UK military spokesman Major Mike Shearer:
"We can categorically state that we have not released man-eating badgers into [Basra]."

I somehow managed to get all my shopping done before noon. I think I might nap listen to the radio for a bit. There is laundry and nails to be done, but I think that can wait. I have company coming tonight and I made some wasabi broccoli slaw and picked up some pulled pork and rolls. And chips and veggie gyoza. So I'm set,

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
"We can categorically state that we have not released man-eating badgers into [Basra]."
That's just going to make him want go to Basra to make sure. He'd go all troll logic on me.
"If they say there are no badgers in Basra, that's probably where they're hiding them."
There really needs to be a roller derby team named the Basra Badgers now.

No, no, the UK military denied releasing the man-eating badgers on the grounds that the man-eating badgers were in fact indigenous to the region, and needed no help from the UK military to invade Basra. (To be fair, they may also have quibbled about the man-eating part, but that's really not central to their defence.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ding ding ding! Theo wins -- my package was less than 1lb.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
If I told Emmett that Basra was filled with man-eating badgers he would definitely text me back saying, "I know what I'm doing with my summer job money!"

not your mom's socks.
It's usually super balls hot for Artscape weekend so it will be weird to be there on a cool, rainy day.
I'm jealous that it isn't super, super hot. I used to staff the literary tent - ages ago - and I can't remember an Artscape without waves of hot rolling through the tent.
