I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Sorry about the house, flea. What a bummer.

I'm in a good mood, so I don't think I'm gonna follow the head-explody link.

I'm in a good mood because I took a vacation day today. I discovered that I'd lost my SS card, so I figured I'd go to the local office to replace it. Their hours are 9-3, M-F. Convenient, eh? Anyway, I decided since I'd be spending an unknown amount of time there this morning, I might as well just take the day. It only took an hour so I took myself out to lunch, visited a meadery, and picked up a bunch of plants for the flower beds and hanging baskets. I'm gonna wait until 4 to plant them, as it's unreasonably hot here today. There's something delicious about lounging about reading novels at 3 pm on a workday.

I won't tell you how long I use a towel for...

I used to use a bath mat, but Oz kept peeing on it.

Flea, I am sorry about the house. I am actively wishng for the financing to fall through on the other offer.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I use a towel for about a week, unless it seems to smell funky sooner. Tim switches out about halfway through the week. (We have plenty of towels -- though not enough for both us us to use a fresh towel every day -- but I have this habit of washing the towels and putting them right back on the racks I took them from when they come out of the dryer. I need to rotate in some new towels. Literally new, since we got towels for the wedding.) (I sometimes worry I'm turning into Howard Hughes in his later years, although I don't collect my pee in jars.) (YET.)

Because books.

I sometimes feel ashamed of how long I wear my jeans. If the dog starts licking them, I know it's time for the washing machine.

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

Ooh, that sounds nice, Calli! Well done.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Oops, I should clarify. We don't have lice in our house, but it's loose in my boy's classroom. I'm just worried we'll get it.

I am halfway to getting my grades all turned in. Tentative yay!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I just did laundry. It was rather hot inside the laundromat, and I noticed the air conditioning vents on the ceiling were all covered in duct tape. As I was packing up, an embarrassed laundromat employee was pulling the tape off and finally letting the cool air in.

Also, I have a cat on my lap, and I'm resting my iPad on her back so I can type this.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I don't wash most of my clothes after every wearing, and I do JUST FINE.

The Baby Name Wizard is full of wacky name facts and trend analyses today

There was just some name I wanted to look up on there, and now I forget what and why! Edit: Oh, right -- a high school friend with an old-fashioned name.
