Yesterday, my life's like, 'Uh-oh, pop quiz!' Today it's like, 'rain of toads.'

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I'm guessing Blood isn't a Goth magazine?

Hematology

I have very crisp and precise diction when I'm speaking on headset, ordering something over the phone, or trying to communicate in a noisy environment. Otherwise my speech is more relaxed.

An extreme version of the cat tree phenomenon is when residents of Kansas City say the name of the city. They typically don't pronounce much more than Cans City.

There are Buffista cats who would rock this: Cat Battle Armor Turns Any Feline into an ‘Unstoppable Force for Slaughter’ [link] .

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I assume Darby inherited Gracie's stash, but has less discretion.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Suddenly her 75% chill/25% paranoid personality is making more sense.

Brenda this CRACKED me up.

I don't wanna ___________ today.

Once again looking for the Like button on the Nazgul posts. The Witch King would give a bitchin' speech.

My new workbench, fully assembled and with stuff in it! [link] [link] [link]

I love power screwdrivers and drills. And drill bit sets that have hex bits so I don't have to break my hands on stupid allen wrenches. And flexible extenders. And my mitre saw. YAY DRAWERS (which will have their handles replaced with something funky.)

I love the idea of Gracie the cat having more discretion than Darby.

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

I'd be waiting for when she announces it's time to get on the dance floor: "Do not come between the Nazgûl and her prey."

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

It would be completely in character, no lie.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I've never had panna cotta! Even after all these years watching Top Chef.

It's so freakin' easy! It's just cream, vanilla, sugar, and gelatin!

Deadly. Also deadly.
