Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, I've finished packing my books and shredded the pattypan squash I'll never eat, even though they are so cute. That's enough, right?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

My most impressive parallel parking accomplishment was a pick-up truck and 16' foot trailer; I think it took three tries.

Three tries or not, that's pretty impressive.

Sure! What does one do with shredded pattypan squash?

Fry it into fritters? With fresh herbs and parmesan?

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

My car's right wing mirror angles down when I parallel park--it took me a month to notice, and another couple weeks to realise it was a feature, not a bug. Still fucks me up more than it helps me. I can't place what it's showing me in space usefully.

My sisters FB is proving to have a dry wit, and little hesitation to show it in front of a bunch of women he hasn't met in the discussion around what do do for my sister's birthday. But if he thinks I'll fall for the obvious mislead about sex with midgets--I've met my sister. I think maybe she's slept with one guy under six foot? But I'm not going to be the one announcing that to her exes.

Sure! Or throw it into anything like chili or spaghetti sauce or soup. Or make not-zucchini bread.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

My favorite local restaurant is closing at the end of the month, so since I hit my original goal weight (20 lbs. lost!) over the weekend I decided to go off the diet and eat my favorite meal off their menu: grilled pears with blue cheese and spicy beef, grilled spinach, mushroom soup, and perhaps the yummiest breadsticks known to man.

I'm thinking since I made a break with it, I may try alternating with a mostly fruit and salad menu for the next week or so and see if I go up, down, or remain the same.

That sounds like NOM, Matt.

We drove for an hour today. A lot of time in one of the subdivisions behind our house. Then out on one of the two lane, 45 mph roads. He did great.

Unfortunately I need to take my car into the shop tomorrow. I knew it was time for an oil change, but I noticed a leak that I think is the air conditioning. Sigh.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

What appeared to be leaking?

Could it be normal condensation dripping from the AC? If the refrigerant is leaking you wouldn't see that, as it'd just turn to a gas.

Ooh, that does sound good, Matt.

I have also written a note to my aunt who had surgery yesterday, and tried to move my cable, but the current tenants haven't cancelled yet. Ah well. That took a ridiculously long time on chat to establish. But still! Working the to-do list!

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

It is actually 1200 but it includes the temp and permanent partial to replace it. So not unreasonable. Just don't need either the lost time, the stress or the expense.
