Borrowing trouble is bad. The interest rate is horrific.
I just said that you're pretty. Even when you're covered in...engine grease, you're... No, especially, especially when you're covered in engine grease.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
My mom's health was failing so bad in the last year that I reflected that if she were a cat, I'd have to put her down to be a responsible pet owner.
I did not share this thought with any relatives.
The thing with cats and dogs and small pets is that they live totally in the moment, without dread of mortality or concept of personal death. They may fear being hurt, and endure great discomfort and pain with stoic acceptance and misery. It's us, the human owners who fear their deaths and also have to make the decision when they've had enough.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh shoot, I forgot we're having a blood drive today, and I'm not sure I can push my sleeve up enough! Well, it'll be fine for the stick, but I don't know about the BP test.

Took me an hour to discover I'd left my lunch at home. At least it is so close I can go and grab it later?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Yup, I've done exactly that a couple of times.
I forgot to tell you guys - yesterday I had to take a detour and ended up over by the AFB where there is a pasture full of grazing cows across the street from a Burger King. I'm not sure if that's really convenient or an uprising waiting to happen.
They did the BP cuff over my shirt sleeve last time I donated, Jesse.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Sounds like a Far Side cartoon to me.

You're right! Perhaps if I have towait at that stoplight again I will figure out the caption.

Oh good -- I thought that was a thing.
Jess, did you get the rice or not??

Hahaha! Yes, I did. Sorry to leave you all with a cliffhanger last night!
