Is there a lot waiting for the other shoe involved?
I think part of my brain was looking for a punch line along this line most of the afternoon.
I'm digging this show though. It's like Our Town meets The Marriage of Bette and Boo.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Did you all know that polar bears and grizzly bears are hybridizing?!
I did! I once came across this fringe theory of evolution that claimed natural selection was a less significant driver than hybridisation. (And also that ankylosaurs were really mammals and the ancestors of armadillos.) One of the odder theories invoking actual science I've come across.

I like lamb, although I can fill up on it really fast. The one time I had goat it was ok, although nothing for which I'd go out of my way. There are very few cheeses I've tried that I haven't liked, except for mild cheddar. (Seriously, what's the point? Put that stuff back in the cave for another year or four until its good and crumbly.)

I am awake and at the airport. This is so wrongly early in the morning I can't even handle coffee.
Also someone turned on the tv here in the gate area and its talking about slaughter numbers and corn prices.

Calli is me with regards to cheese. Good cheddar should bite back a little.

What the hell time is it in Sioux City? Waaay tooo early.
I was surprised to find out about pre-existing conditions a few years back, since MA didn't allow insurance companies to use them. I was living in a protected world and didn't even know it.

Theo, I left the hotel at 515, my flight was at 630. I'm now at ohare for a few hours, wishing the "nap pods" business was already running (apparently it exists in Philly and Atlanta)

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I like lamb, though I tend to have it in forms that are mixed with something else. Never had goat. Have had a few buffalo burgers. Tried escargot in Paris. Kinda like chewing rubber bands.(The garlic sauce they were in was nice, though.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Escargot always reminds me of the time I got my parents to take me to a Fancy Restaurant as a kid. I got to pick a place for dinner when I got my report card, and until then I had always picked fast food. At 10 or 11, I picked the fanciest restaurant I had heard of, and ordered escargot and steak au poivre. I didn't like either of them! I'm pretty sure it was back to BK the next time.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
The only times I've had goat was in Indian, and it was pretty cheap Indian buffet. It was OK, but nothing I'd order. I may have had a bite or two of lamb, but it didn't stick in my mind. I'd be willing to be persuaded.
And I like cheese, most all kinds except bleu. And I like stinky cheeses, I just can't get into bleu. I can go to town on the goat cheese all day long.
God, I've been sleeping weird. Up, down, up, down.
