Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I swear to god, realtors in the neighborhood should put me on retainer. At both of the open houses I went to today, I ended up giving prospective buyers the hard sell on the neighborhood. Walkability, what stores are nearby, farmers markets, what is super awesome about these houses, etc.

I'm kinda wanting to move to your neighborhood myself.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That doesn't sound odd, Kat. I'm sure I've done that.

Not recently, of course. My hands won't fit in toilet paper rolls anymore.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

We put toilet paper rolls on my cousin to make her be Robotman, because a thing my cousins and I did on Sunday afternoons was act out the Sunday funnies as entertainment for the family. And we weren't weird at all! (Um.)

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Wait, so toilet paper rolls = robot is a thing? Huh.

They're around, I guess. We also used tinfoil, obviously.

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

Empty paper rolls are great kiddie props. Robot prosthetics, telescopes, wands you can make things fly out of...cardboard, the gift that gives and gives.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I am not enjoying football so much today.

It's not improving my mood like I hoped.

At least Atlanta is losing. (Sorry, Ginger.)

Really, a Falcons win would be better, since Carolina is right behind us, but I'm pretty much incapable of rooting for the Falcons.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

No kidding. This game is rough.

Although, at least, you appear to have taken out half the Jets' squad.
