Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

That ice cream sounds disgusting, so she's the worst having the worst time.

Is it fair to criticise Pacific Rim for not being more of a character piece? Shouldn't we be grateful it was as much as it turned out to be? ROBOT LIZARD SMASH SMASH is what them upstairs ordered. If you don't want to see that movie, don't buy a ticket.

NO LUNCH.

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

Vacation has commenced, yay!

Now I just have to do laundry, pack, and load the car.

I am not looking forward to the long drive across KS tomorrow, but at least it is not forecast to be blazing hot.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

yay for vacation!

I have strawberry shortcake frozen yogurt in the freezer, but since I already had blueberry pie for lunch, I suppose I should hold off.

It's salty, so fuck, that's gross. And then caramel is just gooey sugar, and that's gross too. DISGUSTING.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I don't actually mind people thinking I'm younger than I am! A cashier the other day insisted on knowing my skincare routine after she carded me.

I'm ridiculously put out that I have a 1pm meeting the day of the building ice cream social. Not that I won't still get ice cream, obviously.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

But what about your daily fruit intake?

I love YouTube. Just discovered The Hairy Bikers, a pair of British cooks going over traditional British cooking. It's like the male version of Two Fat Ladies, but with two motorcycles instead of one bike and a sidecar.
