Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

WOOOOOOOOOOO.

But no.

Maybe I can sneak out at 4:30 though.

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

I just ate half of the most disappointing egg salad sandwich in the world. It looked SO GOOD but it was SO BLAND. What I thought were chopped up pickles were just chopped cucumber, and I don't think there was any salt added at all. The dill was in such big pieces all it did was get stuck in my teeth without adding any dill flavor. I threw the other half out because it was making me sad.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Also, why the fuck don't they make spoons with a bowl that can actually hold anything anymore? Fucking flat modern spoons.

It is called flatware.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

LIFE!!!

I wanted to hang my laundry out to dry, and it started storming about 5 minutes after I thought about it (but I hadn't taken stuff out yet, so I call that a win, except for how the bedroom is full of wet clothes now).

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Huge attic bee hive falls through bathroom ceiling - Boing Boing

After the initial shock I would be SO PSYCHED about all that attic honey.

Well, for however much of it remained in the attic. Bathroom floor and toilet bowl honey? Less appetizing.

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

So if I pass on this geoguesser link, you guys get the same spots I did?

Not my highest score because I didn't get the right city, like Boston, but I had the right country every time, which, hey! So much better than any of the rest.
