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.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

So I'm guessing she has a crush on you as well? NICE.

Oh yes. She says I'm very handsome, intelligent, funny and kind.

She's totally right!

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

So, I thought I'd get a jump on my urgent Monday morning tasks to make this short week a little easier, and for a little while it looked like my one normally simple but slightly time-consuming thing would be complicated, but it turns out that all the complicated parts are not urgent for this week. Whew.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I was going to do enchiladas, but it was too fucking hot for the oven, so I'll have to think of another way to eat my new guacamole.

Quesadilla?

With a spoon? Maybe just me.

With a spoon?

It's tempting. It's currently sitting in the fridge, well wrapped against air, marrying its little flavors together. So amazingly easy to throw together.

I need to buy a spatula.

I like the guy I share the Sunday shift with. He's the one who wished me Happy Grown Up Female Day on Mother's Day. I talked about my Vegas trip and said this was one particular anniversary I didn't want to be around for, and all he said was "I can understand that." Simple acknowledgement that this is a tough time of year for me is very soothing.

Well, finally had to unfollow someone for posting marriage-equality-will-destroy-America BS. Took a good few days though, which seems like a triumph.

Also found out that Bobby Jindal went to my brother's high school and graduated two years after me. People younger than me running for President, that can't be right.

It was cause for several minutes rumination when I realized Obama is younger than I am.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

Joining in the chorus of well-wishes for Tickybox and those who love her.

Many good thoughts for your friend, Theo.

Love to all who need it.
