You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Shops are still open on Christmas Eve, right? I can avoid the house by being out shopping in cheap tax free NH?

And the Brie was with prosciutto and fig jam on some nice bread.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

...KC...icy roads...I put the drive off til tomorrow.

Good call. Put it off until Monday if you can. The freezing rain reached downtown about 3 p.m., and is still working northward. Driving home I was doing about 45 mph on I-35 in light traffic. We're supposed to get 3 to 6 inches of snow tonight and tomorrow morning.

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

Man, I thought I was over this cold, but apparently not. Disappointing. Fortunately, I do not have to do anything this evening. Maybe I'll feel better tomorrow, I did yesterday...

That sounds really nice, sarameg. And beth, for that matter.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I do, in fact, have a cold too. It is super mild, but it is the first one in five years, since I got swine flu. So I am very tired today.

But also because a) we had a great party yesterday with some of our coworkers from a neighboring reservation and b) then I was up half the night with a former student who is struggling.

Aw. Well, yay party and I'm glad you could be there for your former student!

I'm having a cheeseburger for dinner, I'm sure that's therapeutic.

Because books.

Maybe comforting things, msbelle? Would she like a massage? Or some good teas? Stuff like that?
