Something there is that doesn't love a wall, that sends the upper stones tumbling in the sunlight.

I think I messed up the latter part of that. I need to dig out my poetry books.

I have "All the world's a stage" in the back recesses of my brain.

And I'm with JZ on her quote, thanks to Hair.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Wild nights! Wild nights!
Were I - with thee -
Wild nights would be
Our luxury -

Futile - the winds -
To a heart in port
Done! with the compass -
Done! with the chart

Rowing - in Eden -
Ah! the sea!
Might I but moor -
Tonight - in thee!

Emily Dickinson's only erotic poem. Memorized because, well, it's an erotic poem by Emily Dickinson.

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

I retained none of the lines from the plays and musicals I was in in highschool. Nor the poems I read at competition in jr high. I have a very memorize them dump brain.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

What a piece of work is man!

He impresses me not.

"To be or not to be" is stuck in my head, or at least half of it.

I have an "abridged" version of the speech in my head. I could never remember all of it. Most people don't know what the whole thing is supposed to be, and they don't have patience to listen to the whole thing extemporaneously anyway.

I... what... how else do I say...

I'd repeat "You are receiving this email because you have attended at least 5 sessions of our weekly CME course in the last six months." and add "Thirteen, in fact! Did you know you went to that many?"

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I have of late, though wherefore I know not, lost all my mirth.

Me too. "This goodly frame the Earth" my ass.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

And most of the songs from every musical I've ever been in.

We had to buy our blue-books in the bookstore at GW for undergrad, but they were sealed and could only be opened at the beginning of the test. In law school, the blue books were provided.

I'm about to bake these Mint Chocolate Chip cookies.

The recipe calls for mint extract, but the store only had peppermint - my hunch is that peppermint will be fine. What do you all think?

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I think peppermint will be better. Mint extract is often kind of spearminty.
