Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I nearly BIT MY TONGUE OFF not saying "And you have food year 'round!" I had to run away before I started laughing. I'm laughing now. It was SO HARD to not stand there and tell this total stranger the whole story. I wanted to grab her by the hand and show her Mallomars.

Ah ha ha! I just had to tell my parents that story, and it was still funny. (Funny because you WEREN'T being a dick, Steph!)

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

It's snowing here.We are having Gary's birthday party this afternoon. Let's see how many people show up.

Going to the pool early is not going to happen. Now I cross my fingers that the weather doesn't freak too many people out.

Flakes better than freezing rain, though, no?

I just rearranged my living room, and am unsure. What I should do is finish unpacking the other bedroom and then come back to it, but instead I am playing Candy Crush and listening to Wait Wait.

Well, freezing is supposed to happen later. I may not be going anywhere. Main drag near me is covered.

Parade was cancelled. Furthest I'm going is the pool, I guess.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I may have bought Mallomars at the store, and thought of Steph while I did it. Because I'm still sick and deserve a treat!

To me the "year round food" comment is funny because it was made by a smart person who was being logical while losing sight of the bigger picture. For me the personal moment that illustrates this is the time many years ago when I petted a clean, bouncy baby lamb and blurted out "It feels just like a sweater!"

not your mom's socks.

We had fun last night and the reading in east Baltimore was great. Sadly, we didn't get out in advance of the snow fast enough and decided, after some scary driving, to get off in Whitemarsh. Where we had a fender bender - no one hurt, but plans royally screwed up. Bills to follow. We cancelled AAA bc allstate had 'roadside assistance'. We are rapidly discovering the difference.
