Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Inside pants, bad TV, and Leftover Nachos!

Living the dream.

ALL WEEKEND LONG.

Salt N Peppa on a Geico commercial? I feel depressed now.

I saw a Coldwell Banker commercial that uses Motley Crue's "Home Sweet Home." I was actually speechless.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Mac has gone to help grandma clean house and earn money. I broke out the wine with lunch and am taking a break from cleaning. 2 dish racks of dishes washed this far, second load of laundry in, and boxes/bags/trash/recycling/compost all removed from kitchen to their rightful homes. Still a lot to do before I can think about a tree going up.

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

if you get to the point where you are not in above 5 pain

I'm actually doing really well right now (although I can't drive precisely because of that) and have another treatment tomorrow, so this weekend should be good, if you like.

I'll tidy up, but don't expect much. EXCEPT OVERWHELMING GRATITUDE.

Okey dokey, ita. We'll come by this afternoon with treats!

'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"

After 5 hours of Ubering (and 6, count 'em, fares), I came home and took a short nap. I'd have done better if I'd gotten going before 6 like I planned. I blame it on the turkey.

Still better than working at Walmart.

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

I would like to report that all my recent TJ hot verge impulse buys (Pumpkin spice Tea, Harvest Blend Tea, and Trois Chocolats) are fully justified by their deliciousness.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Salt N Peppa on a Geico commercial? I feel depressed now.

But it makes me laugh so hard!

The status is NOT quo.

If you want a second round of Thanksgiving treats, ita, we also have a ton of leftovers. I could bring them tomorrow.

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

Yay for treats!

I have the tree up, with lights strung and tested. The ornaments still need to go on it, but that's the sort of thing where I can add a couple now and again throughout the day. I also have the traditional tree trimming accompanyment of the Lord of the Rings DVDs playing in the background, which makes me happy. They're in the Mines of Moria right now. Poor Gimli.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I am resistant to Hobbit movies. LotR is just close enough to perfection (though RotK edges into OOT CGI for me) that I side-eye even more CGI embroidery for a much slighter story. I can't not go see them, but only once, as opposed to the near-dozen FotR in theater. And Hobbit DVDs are only because of my compulsive completeism.
