I've been watching Frasier on Netflix. It makes me laugh and laugh, especially the parts that are not Kelsey Grammer.
Sorry, Captain. I'm real sorry. I shoulda kept better care of her. Usually she lets me know when something's wrong. Maybe she did, I just wasn't paying attention...

Roz knows comedic timing like nobody's business. She is great.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
They're supposed to be letting us out of work early today, but I've already adjusted my internal clock, and I want to leave NOW.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
No leaving early for me. possible leaving early on Friday, but I am not banking on it.
I am trying to remember to drink a big glass of water before I eat. I think it may actually work to make me eat less, but will I just get hungry sooner?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Co-worker came to check my adherence to the flip flops, shorts, and tee dress code, and walked away very unsurprised (tux jacket over the Supernatural tee, black jeans, red steel-toed MJ's and black socks with lace trim). I did tell her I'd give a dollar to anyone wearing bootie shorts.
She thinks I'm counter-Californian and unJamaican--but I will wear sundresses and sandals! Just rarely shorts and even more rarely flip flops. AND NOT TO WORK.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
8-year-old critic Ada Grey reviews The Jungle Book: "People who would like this show are people who like elaborate anthropomorphic animals, fatherly figures, and bears singing the blues into honey." [link]
All other reviews are invalid after this one (although Sun-Times liked it, as did Variety [link] I haven't seen the Trib yet.)
I was also pleased to see that I managed to avoid an appearance in the "making-of" video the theatre posted today.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo
msbelle, water is not processed in the same as other foods or liquids. Often when kids have volume intolerances, a parent will administer a bolus of water a bit before feeding which will actually serve to stretch the stomach and expand it more, which increases the stomach's volume tolerance so you can give a kid more. This is brought to you by the moms of kids with eating issues.
Instead of drinking water before a meal, I'd suggest milk which has calories and protein and will make you feel more full.

NYT has a spread on pie options. [link] I love the name Jumbleberry Grunt. It sounds like a Harry Potter character.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
"People who would like this show are people who like elaborate anthropomorphic animals, fatherly figures, and bears singing the blues into honey."
That is awesome.
I'm pretty sure drinking water before meals is a Weight Watchers tip for eating less, and they seem to know what they are doing?
