Jesse, I hate that kind of dilemma.

Which is why I'm having people come to my house tonight.

I did some work, but then I stopped. Now I'm reminding myself I need to go to the store and buy stamps, and dryel, and soda.

Our wings are not tired.

Last rant of the year! So I stayed at the office until about 10 minutes before 4 and then gave up on mail delivery. I checked with the tellers in the bank downstairs and they said they never saw mail being delivered, just FedEx. So I went back to the post office to attempt to get my package. They called the carrier and the lying sack of #$%& claimed he attempted delivery but my office was closed. Um, G gets in at 6:30am and I just left 2 minutes ago. He can go back again if someone is there... So I drive back in the 1 minute it takes to get there and the mail vehicle pulls in. Swears he was there a couple hours ago and the lights were all out in my office. Yeah right buddy, you are so busted. But, I Have My Nook! Charging now, then I am going to be a bum the rest of the year. Whee!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I hate that shit. My UPS delivery guy just did that to me last week, too -- "attempted delivery," but no notice or anything, and I don't actually believe that they couldn't leave it, since someone is generally home in the building.

....so the Call The Midwife Christmas special was not the thing to watch to stop crying.

Yeah all carriers do this. If the route gets too tough, they skip inconvenient stops and claim they "attempted delivery".

Oops, I could have told you that last night, Jesse.

Thai food ordered, leaving to pick it up in 5. And then I shall come home and start the laundry and eat.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Is it coincidence or creepy big brother that I'm suddenly seeing the couches and end tables I was thinking of ordering on web ads on most of the websites I visit? Okay, sure, maybe it's a coincidence that the website is suddenly the ad du jour, but the exact same furniture I put on my wishlist at the furniture website?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Not coincidence. Marketing.

Yeah, that's cookies.

Yikes, that's too close to home, Jesse. What were you thinking, Jesse's Mom?

After Lucy, like four people gave me or recommended various dead dog books. A world of no.
