Timelies all!
Going out to dinner tonight with Gary's mom to celebrate our anniversary.
Seems like everyone's got a tale to tell.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

I am a silly person, but -- I just printed out good feedback from my boss on an edited manuscript (just 1 page, where she wrote "NICE!" [the ASSCAPS and exclamation point are hers] next to a particularly tricky passage).
I am going to hang it on the fridge. Tim said he thinks he has gold stars somewhere to stick on it. (If he *does* have gold stars, I don't understand why I haven't been getting them all along. Bake scones? Gold star! Leave you the last scone because I know you love them? Gold star! Not kill your father on vacation? HUGE GOLD STAR, baby.)

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
In term of eating the same thing. I eat basically the same thing for breakfast every day - greens with chicken, cheese and "fixings" (chopped celery, radish, carrot & green onion). Dressing: cider vinegar and eggless mayo sweetened with splenda, and spiced with garlic and black pepper. Greens are either carrot greens & beet greens I get for free or spinach when I have to buy greens.
Lunch alternates between a pudding made with peanut butter & plain nonfat greek yogurt sweeted with splenda with an apple for desert or plain non-fat yogurt with chopped apple and peanuts again sweeted with peanuts. So essentially the same lunch with alternating textures.
Dinner varies.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Hell, we do that at the office. Though now I think we need some gold stars.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Ow Steph, it does seem unfair of the universe to pile it on that way. {Edited to add that was in response to migraine on top of sickness}
So many onerous tasks lately. Moving boxes, gluing chests of drawers, stripping rust from metal, looking for a reliable body shop to bring the car, back-to-school onerosity (yes, it's its own category). I'm not even including the visit to the lawyer to take care of the estate because that was just fine. I am ready for pleasant and deeply satisfying task day. When is it?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
That's what I call a view!

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Wow. That is amazing, Connie.
In other news, I have to brag a bit. Instead of my usual workout, I checked my maximums. I can now chest press 110 pounds and squat 185. I've been giddy about this all evening.
That said, I will be taking a lot of ibuprofen before going to bed...

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

Anne, that's so badass. I really need to get serious about weights. You're such an inspiration.
