Whoa! I... I think I'm having a thought. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's a thought. Now I'm having a plan. Now I'm having a wiggins.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Lorazampam starts acting in 15-20 minutes, generally, and lasts about 2-3 hours. Depending on dosage.

Pretty kitty! I like Sir Cecil Fancybottom.

My great-great-grandfather's barn was a secret depot for Quantrill's Raiders. And we have a copy (modern) of a cousin's diary during the Civil War. I did a report on it for 8th grade history class. And Jacob Sallee, who was a French Huguenot, who used to accuse the preacher of his church of being Satan.

My dad did a ton of genealogy, but the bete noire of all my genealogy-loving relative is some dude in the 1600's of Virginia, who changed his name deliberately or accidentally and thus FUBARS up an important chain leading back to England or Scotland. He's like Nessie.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

He's totally a Mr. Fancypants for one of his unofficial names.

Oh, yes.

Ooh. Wooster is a good name. As would Bertie.

Oh, he's a pretty boy! He's gonna look so regal and posh in those floral chairs. He's definitely going to need a title.

Congrats, Anne! Have fun getting to know each other.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

What ho, Mr. Cecilorenzebastibarr Wooster-Jeeves Fancypants (pronounced Smythe Jonze)!

I may have gotten a bit carried away with the name bit. But felicitations to both of you on finding each other.

He's a very decorative cat.

Casper? Ermine?

I wasn't super impressed by the pumpkin pop tarts. I think I didn't like the tart part enough to justify the filling.

Seven children? Better her than me, that's my reaction.

Hah--I'm still flabbergasted by the birth announcement I saw where a family with four daughters had another birth (wanting a boy?) and had TRIPLETS (two boys one girl, I think). Five is bad but seven? Eek.

I'd go with Mr. Cecil Fancypants, Anne. He's a purty cat.

My great Grandmother had a saying, "one at a time as fast as you please, but none of your twos and threes." She managed nine, I think.

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

Whoa, the wind just lifted my patio umbrella out of the table (and stand, but I'm not sure if I'd tightened the bolt on the base) and flung it a good 10-12 feet to land over by the canoe. It's not even particularly windy! Dang. Time to take down the umbrella for the season, I guess.

Thanks for the reminder, meara. I have a pumpkin product recommendation: The Ace pumpkin cider at TJs. It's even gluten free. It's like they have Steph in mind or something.
