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

Yay msbelle! That's awesome!
I tried to nap, since I woke up at what was 2:30am on this coast. It was only sorta successful, not helped by the phone ringing a few times. Sigh.
I didn't really hear much of that sort of thing in conversation that I remember, but being a huge bookworm as a child, I sometimes read older books and encountered words I wasn't sure of. Though I must admit, for most of my life I had no idea "gypped" referred to gypsies! I mean, they weren't a commonplace group where I was growing up, or anything, so it's not like anyone was making the connection directly.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
One day I will convince my father not to use a certain phrase about rigging things, but it hasn't happened yet.
I assume not "jury," but rather...Brazil nuts? My dad uses that phrase, too.
