Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Now tagless for your comfort.

It's probably not appropriate to say "Oh my goodness you are so cute" to my 20-something male coworker, is it? But he's wearing this hilarious diagonally striped shirt that is probably what all the cool kids these days are wearing, and he's just adorable/ridiculous.

I am so old.

One of the HVAC guys who installed our new furnace was 10 years younger than my old furnace.

I really feel old.

Stephen Collins just copped to child molesting accusations because the statute of limitations is up, right? Ugh.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I was rewarded for the terrible task of going to the company Christmas party -- I won a Samsung tablet!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I have an infinity scarf and wear it lots and think they look super cute. I say go for it.

I think they're totally cute on women, but I wondered if they were a different animal on guys.

I personally don't like infinity scarves because I think it's too much bulk around people's faces. I like scarves that can be flung over a shoulder or hang down.

I should really finish these scarves I'm making before spring.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Go Dana!!! (So very jealous). (Of the tablet, not forced work parties).

I'm wearing an inginity scraft right now AIFG.

The ick is still with me. But it hasn't progressed. And I got a call from my doctor's office regarding my blood tests - both my thyroid and my iron levels are playing nice. So the bigger issue depression and exhaustion are something else. Joy. I see her in person on Friday.

Thrive to spite them

I don't think an infinity scarf would look douche-y on a guy. Well it would depend on the guy.

I knitted oen and the pattern was designed by a guy.

I need to start knitting agin.

Congrats Dana!

Tim would be able to transcend any implied douchey-ness, I feel certain.

I am pretty sure Tim would be adorable in an infinity scarf. Make it so!

BTW: brunch was fantastic - the corned beef hash was especially good, and I had to try the ham and swiss waffles and was not disappointed. My department (those of us that were not out sick anyway) got our picture taken with Santa, which was fun. And then movie which was meh, but I indulged in popcorn and a coke and now I don't think I need dinner, so that's a win.

Weird that I have to go to work tomorrow. And I need to make my Chocolate Swamp tonight, and probably make simple syrup to use as glue for the GumDrop Pass and Mountains.

Oh no, I left my melting chocolate at the office! D'oh.
