Buffistas

Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

You guys, the reason I hate being at work on Friday afternoons is that I can't wait to get home and watch TV. So many shows to catch up on!

I feel you, Jesse. So much. But now I am home and the TV is on, hooray!

So much all of this. I am already so very far behind on everything, but soon I will be home, and watching.

I may even get wine!

Oh mac. Way to go to make your life more difficult.

I'm supposed to be at a home-make liquor cocktail party right now. I just can't. It's the waking up in the dark and coming home in the dark and exasperating days at work and not enough sleep and I just don't have anything left to play nicely with groups of new people. Or even just groups of people.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

I am counting down the last 42 minutes before bedtime.

We got the twins' school pics (posted on FB) and they are adorable and awful. Both of them had stickers for retakes if we wanted. But I'm channeling my dad. By god! That's just how they look.

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

My uncle used to live in Ojai. Gorgeous place.

Hah--I thought Grace's was awesome! So much better than the usual super-bland school pictures--it had character!

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

OMG, icebaths hurt so bad! I can't feel a darned thing where the injury is, but the rest of my foot... ayish!

That World Order vid was fab. I'd never seen them before, but way cool.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

When a blender can no longer blend tofu I would say its useful life is over. Come to think of it, it lasted thirty years, so I can't really complain about how soon it wore out. There are probably Buffistas younger than 30.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

meara, it was hilarious, and we are keeping it strictly for comic value at this point. That and it's how she looks.

Grace came home with an 80% on her math test from last week.

Me: "Did you cheat Grace?"
Grace: "Yes."
Me: "WHAT?! How? Did you copy someone's answer?"
Grace: "Yes."

But then when I asked her if she looked at Eric's paper and she said yes I asked her how, since they have privacy barriers and she said, she didn't.

Grace confuses me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, here's another cooking tip: My grandmother always had a box of latex gloves in her kitchen, and I took them home. My mother thought I was wacky, but guess what? I just wore them to peel and cut beets, and no mess! Awesome. It will be even better when I chop hot peppers.

Oh Grace.
