I thought I had missed the race but I tuned in right before it started. Yay!
Sometimes when I'm sitting in class... You know, I'm not thinking about class, 'cause that would never happen. I think about kissing you. And it's like everything stops. It's like, it's like freeze frame. Willow kissage.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Horse racing spoilers:
Holy shit, I didn't think American Pharoah would hold on, and then he opened up down the stretch. Beautiful.

I know, right?
I don't follow horse racing, but I do love to see them run, and that was a real treat.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Wow, what a horse. They're saying only Secretariat ever ran the Belmont faster. And now we finally have a Triple Crown winner after, what, 37 years?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
WHAT A RACE! Jason and I were on our feet for the entire homestretch.

Because books.
I think they said 27?
That was so awesome. They're such beautiful animals.

37 years. The last was 1978.

God, I feel old.
In other news, Trader Joe's frozen pork shu mai are incredible. I have to remember to have these in the freezer at all times.

Those are good shu mai, yes.
I'm gonna take a stand and say that that "holy shit" that got broadcast while the jockeys were miked up after the race was entirely appropriate. Also, I'm pleased to learn about a professional athlete who is not much younger than me.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
We just bought ALL THE THINGS at Trader Joe's, including what looks like nommy gouda with pesto for what has become our friends' annual Cheese Ball (really, it's just a party where everyone brings cheese but we all dress up really fancy -- or whoever wants to dress up fancy does, and everyone else wears what they want). I also snagged some brie for myself, because brie.
And we have reached the time of the year where there's no room in the fridge because we buy so much produce. I can't control myself around berries.
And I have ice on my leg because I whacked the inside of my knee (the part that's really fleshy if you're a big fat panda like me) on our cast-iron pedestal tub. I stepped in with my left leg and my foot slid, which made me lurch forward, and so the inside of my right knee whacked the lip of the tub really hard. It started to bruise immediately. I think perhaps brie will be therapeutic.
