Now, this would be the perfect time for a swear word.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Why would I keep checks? Why would an auditor look for something most banks don't return?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I've finally gotten the hang of roasting Brussels sprouts (our oven runs a little hot, I think, and the first time I made them, they were kind of...briquette-like). Now I feel like I need to make up for 42 years of Brussels sprout deprivation.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I don't get my checks back, and you can only get them free online for six months or something. This is not normally a problem, but apparently my mother is going to need some old checks from me for her Medicaid application, and the bank was going to charge me some ridiculous amount. I got them to agree to send them for free, and then didn't get them, and whatever, but in short: I think it's bullshit that they charge, when in olden days, I would have had them mailed back to me for free.

Happy Birthday, Suzi!

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

All the clean laundry is put away, the last load (towels) is still in the washer but if it doesn't finish drying tonight that is not a problem. I made ham & swiss mini muffins that are delicious and have some cheeseburger custards steaming that will bring my prepared meal count up to sufficient to get through the week. My kitchen is so far from clean it is ridiculous and the number of other things that probably should have been done today but were not is quite high. Probably best I don't open that can of worms.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yay, good job!

So the SO just sent me a singing telegram for Valentine's while he was away on tour! Awww. They made me read the card first and I cried and cried and fortunately their camera was messing up and didn't catch that bit. It was my former guitar student and her family, more awww! They did Sixpence's Kiss Me in three part harmony.

That may be the sweetest thing I've ever heard.
