I tell you I have this theory. It goes where, you're the one who's not my sister. Cuz mom adopted you from a shoe box full of baby howler monkeys, and never told you cuz it could hurt your delicate baby feelings.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Wow Matt. One slice of cake did all that?

Probably the excitement from seeing bunches of old friends contributed too, but it's the first sugar I've had in two months that wasn't in the form of small servings of berries or grapes.

Scratch the moviegoing plans, I just got an invite to hang out at the pool of the couple I had a ménage à trois with early last year. Hugh will just have to wait.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I'm sure Hugh would understand, being the gracious gentleman he is.

He's welcome to show up if he feels left out; I'm sure my hosts wouldn't object.

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

How is before nine acceptable on a Sunday morning when you said nine? Sometimes the impact of being early is heightened. I was half-dressed, so I asked her to wait, but seriously. Wait in your car until nine, and then ring the bell.

I am so impressed with so many of y'all here who lead FAR more interesting lives than I do.

LeN, give me fifteen minutes and some creative liberties, and I can have one of these set up for you.

Note I didn't ask for standards. Please don't give me any of those. Complicates *everything*.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Is this woo nurse that you frequently have to call when she's about an hour later than agreed upon? Because that is just not acceptable. You wait in the car. Knock at 9, not a damn minute earlier.

Weird having guests up and gone and my whole house back to normal by 9. The only truly sad part is that my thermostat is back to normal ranges and no longer set at "Don't melt the Niecelet and Boy."

I have a couple day old weird blister (possibly from an unnoticed burn or just my skin in that precious that someone through something mean at it and that hurt) across my inner left wrist. It's a little puffy but I am assuming that it is just complaining because the protective skin came off and a lot of handwashing. So I covered it up loosely with gauze and Neosporin about twenty minutes ago and it stopped hurting. It never felt warm. So I can check it later today barring it trying to get my attention earlier and not risk losing my arm, right?

My ability to find horizontal surfaces to nap on on mornings of days I need to start cleaning remains epic.

Maybe it's oversleeping, but I just can't parse this?
