Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

And at some point I will post pictures

Once again from the cheap seats non-FB participating (I have an account, I just don't use it), thank you from my heart's bottom for posting picture links. Even links to FB, I can clock in, peek at pics and clock out. If you say, "pics up on FB" I won't trawl my FB feed searching, so links is good. Those who post links to other photo sites, thank you, too.

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

Is there a psychological condition called fear of face blindness? I think I have it. No, I know I have it. I have been afraid that I'll forget what my parents look like for decades. It's literally the most stupid thing that scares me--I rate it as more stupid than my fear of slavery and alligators. Because those could just happen, if my luck turned really sour. Face blindness would be bad luck and a brain injury. Which just seems extra.

I can't explain that quantification in the slightest. Yet it seems pretty plausible to me...

I do hope that by the time I get dementia my parents are dead, so it's not an issue. I will assume the person in the room who matches my description is my sister, and I don't really care about anyone else so much.

msbelle, we got Thor and Iron Man 2 on Netflix streaming through Roku. We had to rent Iron Man 1 Norton's Hulk, and Captain America on disc.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I think I can get IM1 and Hulk from Red Box down the street, but leaving the house was not in my plan for the day.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

I'm not even sure Raylan Givens(who's a killer shot and former firearms instructor) would really attempt to fire in that instance. And he's not hesitant about firing.

Ahrg, Taylor had to cancel. At least most of the stuff freezes well. I'll just hope I can eat the salads all week (I also made a zucchini slaw with just balsamic and salt and sugar for my lunches with the zuccs from last week.)

I guess I'll do my nails in a bit.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I bought salad dressing for salad for the first time in yonks -- somehow I have a deep-seated belief that salad dressing should be homemade. But the stuff I got is fucking delicious! And a good thing, because I have to have salad for every meal to get through the enormous lettuce I got this week.

ION, I knew my massage therapist was getting married last weekend, but not that she was marrying the other therapist in the practice! Huh. I mean, I've been going there for a year or more.

Because there always need to be more videos of cats and boxes. But this one is a little different: [link]

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I am being eaten alive. I have bites a over my legs and feet plus a few on my arms. They itch like crazy. It wasn't mosquitoes. The welts have appeared over the last couple of days. I hope the antihistamine I just took kicks in quickly.
