But I understand. You gave up everything you had to find me. And you found me broken. It's hard for you.

I just learned that the kicker for the Patriots has a 5 year old son named SLAYDEN. NOT OKAY, PEOPLE.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

We're getting snow here. We haven't had much yet this winter, and we're only expecting 5-7 inches, but judging from the grocery store parking lots, people have been traumatized by images of the Northeast and are reacting accordingly.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's a compromise name if I ever heard one.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

we're only expecting 5-7 inches

"Only"? That's a lot in one snowfall.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I just learned that the kicker for the Patriots has a 5 year old son named SLAYDEN.

Also, a 7 year old named KILLGORE and a 3 year old named MAIMIE.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

So basically, they're breeding a death metal band?

Tom is joking. He does have a 3 year old named Gannon, which is also not really a name, but it's no SLAYDEN.

True, but it's not out of bounds for what we normally get in winter, and it's a slow, steady fall vs. heavy winds and whiteout conditions. Also, given that the snow is falling from Saturday into Sunday with plenty of advance notice, there shouldn't be too much trouble with road management.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Thank you flea, Tom, and Jess, for providing me with the first laugh of the day.

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

Buying stuff you "need" for vacation counts as being productive, right?
