See, in my fantasy, when I'm kissing you... you're kissing me. It's okay. I can wait.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I don't even know what a false flag would mean in this context?

Why do I snap wide awake before my alarm on my day off when it's usually like scaling a cliff face toward consciousness on a workday?

Matt, that was me today. My alarm was set for 9, and I was wide awake at 7:00. On workdays, when my alarm goes off at 6:45, I feel like I'm coming out of a coma.

My bedhead has become infinitely worse since Pumpkin. See, she likes to play with/sleep on my hair. Short though it is, I wake up with odd tufts sticking out where she's made a nest.

Sophia, a "false flag" is a covert military or paramilitary operation carried out by the government but made to look like some other group/country is behind it. The idea being that the US government orchestrated this attack, pretending to be a terrorist organization of some sort, in order to justify expanded security powers. Conspiracy bullshit in this case, though it has a historical basis: [link]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My parents are oddly excited about how Lester Holt is broadcasting from right in front of a diner that we like to eat at when we're visiting Boston. I don't get it.

Heh. I get that.

My boss just assured me, unprompted, she'd fire herself before she'd fire me. Alrighty, then.

Thanks Steph. I thought he meant an actual flag!

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

Well, it is cutie Lester Holt.

Dr appt this morning. I have been without my AA/ADs for a month. So ready to get lifted out of the low level D that just sits on me. I wish they could get something worked out with my hormones b/c some weeks are pretty ok, then other weeks are so not and it is completely cyclical.

Speaking of Uncle Wingnuts (who aren't necessarily uncles), one of my Facebook friends was going on about how Cambridge harbors illegal immigrants and what do they expect to happen when they do that. The fact that the brothers aren't illegal (and appear to have been in this country up to ten years?) doesn't seem to have given him much pause.

I caught John McCain on one of the network morning shows around 7:30, and he segued from the issue at hand right into immigration reform. I think the anchor wanted to throttle him.
