And wine if you are inclined, sara.
I'm 17. Looking at linoleum makes me want to have sex.

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

Gonna take a lot of wine. This will be ongoing. Sigh.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
could there be some parallel drawn with a non-state of "pre-pregnancy"?
Oh, I tried. How I did try. And got lectured that "pre-diabetes" is a set of parameters that indicate a person could progress to diabetes. (Yeah, but..."could" means that they also could NOT, and if the result is NOT, and they never develop diabetes, then they never WERE "pre-diabetic" because WORDS MEAN THINGS.)
Narrrrrrrrr.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.
Is our new piecemeal way really better than false teeth? I wonder. (I mean, I assume that's why so few people have dentures now, compared to my grandparents' generation. Fluoride and whatever has to be part of it, too, I guess.)
I seem to recall reading that keeping one's own teeth into the 70s and 80s has a lot of health benefits beyond the teeth themselves - like maybe some correspondence between full extraction earlier in life and dementia?
At any rate, Dad's stories of having most of his teeth pulled in his 20s left me committed to keeping mine forever if at all possible.

Skipping because, according to the Buffista Calendar, both yesterday (sorry!) and today have Buffistas birthdays.
Yesterday, the 14th, was ChiKat's birthday, and today is sumi's birthday.
Happy belated birthday, ChiKat!
Happy birthday, sumi!
With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!
And, of course, short Fridays and lovely weekends all around!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I'm off on a semi-spontaneous solo road trip to Point Pleasant, WV. If I see the Mothman, I'll let you all know.

I'm right here in Somerville, hiding from the cats in my study.

Lordy. There was a child bitten by a coyote near here yesterday. I don't mean to make light (he's going to be fine, ftr), and obviously I am highly sympathetic right now, but it happened while the boy was petting it. I just can't help laughing picturing it.

Held over from yesterday: HAPPY BIRTHDAY to I! What did she get, Sox? (IOW, what will I be buying my daughter in 4/5 years?)
