Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ugh.

I was listening to This American Life on my way to work, and got blindsided with "Mama, I'm Sorry"! I'm hoping people thought I had allergies and/or a cold, and not that I was just crying on the bus....

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

That sucks, sarameg,

I wish crying were more socially acceptable.

It's an upside of the Modern World of Devices, at least -- I was looking down playing solitaire, and most other people were looking at their own phones or whatever, I am sure.

I am in a revolutionary mood. What can I overthrow?

OK, where is everyone?

Art Crawl!!!

I'm here but uh. . . I have no revolutionary ideas.

But if your revolution could wind up throwing some chocolate my way, I'd appreciate it. (Redistribute the chocolate to the masses!)

Because books.

You could overthrow ... Switzerland? Just for fun?

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

I want to be a part of the chocolate network.

I have zero work motivation. I'd rather crawl back in bed and sleep.

Overthrowing Switzerland to redistribute chocolate. I like it.

Don't hold your breath, though, I'm not sure my coffee is working. I may end up just lying down until the revolutionary fervor passes.
