I hear much less new music now that my commute is 15 minutes from locking my front door and logging into the work computer if I hit all the lights and that one left turn wrong. Third to a half of that is the parking and walking down to the far corner of the building.

I think if I didn't have plenty of opportunities to indulge in me time, I might not begrudge a longer commute. My ex-next-door-neighbor used to say that her commute on the MARC was the a time she could really indulge in pleasure reading without distactions.

Got Devi on the scale. She's down to 5lbs13oz. From 6lb5oz a month ago. Sigh. And I'm feeding her extra. She's still not acting out of sorts. Sleeps harder, getting more puffiness around her face and had a horrendous nosebleed this evening which she seemed completely unaware of. I had to race around trying to make sure she didn't bloody the walls. If she wasn't so damn spunky and pissy. I'm waiting for her to act weird or drop below 5 lbs, at which point she SHOULD start acting weird, cause that isn't sustainable for her frame, but she's so damn contrary. I'll trust my gut. I'll know.

I think the twins know that when one is being super pilly the other must chill.

Newton's third law of twinning?

Newton's third law of twinning?

Twin exclusion principle? Featuring opposite spins of pill and chill.

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

ita, that is craxy.

She pulled off one of the biggest swindles in the UK--I don't remember what the boundaries were, but she got MILLIONS. And the reading I just did in a book called Frauditors, or some sort, said she did a well-executed account shell game that made things hard to track, but she also wrote down prayers to god asking for her not to get caught. Yes, Joyti, he's going to send his boy down here and fix your shit, Jo jo.

But can you have twin chilling?

Both twins chilling? If they are on different energy levels, I'd guess.

Need more data.

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

Huh. I didn't know Bernadette Peters was Italian-American.

She totally fooled me with the red-headed Bernadette biz.

Dippin' dots! Ice cream of the future. There's a vending machine at the mall.

Uh, we were talking about shelf stable ice cream the other day?

Yeah.

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

Commute, down the stairs, the main reason I'm still with my company.

Never paid anyone to do my taxes. Since the year I bought my house, I've used TurboTax.

eta the rest of the sentence my phone wouldn't let me type.
