The bakery on the way to work will have fasnacht tomorrow, and I'm getting some. I wonder why it seems to be called fasnacht here more often than paczki.
Jayne: Well... I don't like the idea of someone hearin' what I'm thinkin'. Inara: No one likes the idea of hearing what you're thinking.

I don't mind split infinitives. And I obviously have no issue with prepositions ending a sentence or conjunctions starting one. But non parallel structure makes me nutty.

Aw, man, It was almost easier when Grace was unaware of upcoming surgery, but otoh, she's so awesome now!
Maria also had travel woes due, I presume, to the storm, but she's safely in the air now.

And that dog digging in the snow? That's Loki's response to snow. Though less gleeful. But just as driven. I wish I knew what he's trying to accomplish.

She is so awesome now! Today I was on the phone at dinner and she was imitating me. When I got tired of the preadmissions crap she actually said, "Oh my god!" and rolled her eyes.
Also, Noah is loving the Harry Belafonte version of the Banana Boat Song ("what language is this in, mom?") and we have created Grace signs for it.

Ahahah, oh, Gracie. Tickled the drama llama sign is still in play.
I'm not sure how I ended up with 2 such canine cats. Though Loki trumps Pumpkin in that respect. Cause she's more devious.
I can't wait to see N&G this TG. I still am sorry I didn't get to see them this year. I'm pretty sure I'll be shocked by their growth.

Actually Grace is a little chatterbox now. She mixes sign and speech and using a device. I think the school is going to get rid of her useless sign interpreter, which is awesome, and we hope up her speech minutes.
We are looking forward to seeing you too, sara.
So, I love that it never occurred to me that for a pope to step down it's an abdication. I mean, my inner medievalist always knew the upper echelons of catholic hierarchy always were the royalty of the church, but to hear abdicate used in relation to a pope just brings it to the forefront.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
There should have been a Schoolhouse Rock episode on abdication.
