Poor sad people like me, for whom ice cream makes painfully ill!

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

Coincidentally, my BiL just reportedly declined to have a 6-lb milkshake. So, balance of the universe and all, someone should probably eat a sundae as big as her head.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I contributed to a crowdfunding campaign for an origami exhibition earlier this year at the Cooper Union in NYC, and my "perk" arrived today: [link]

One piece of paper, and the display surface has the fold pattern inscribed.

Now I have to figure out some way to keep the dust off.

OK, I got the instructions on how to transfer my triathlon registration. I think I am actually going to transfer to a 5K that is meant to be run with dogs, because that sounds so fun, and maybe put off the triathlon until Spring rather than try to do the October one. Which makes me feel like maybe I am malingering or sandbagging or something, but what the hell, I am only doing any of this racing stuff because I want to so who's gonna judge?

Wow, dcp, that's beautiful!

Theo, you could always get chickens. I'm given to understand that they think wasps, yellowjackets, etc. are delicious. If the crumpled paper bag doesn't work out, I mean.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I am having the weirdest issue on google image searches - the whole page flips and I cannot scroll.

ION - Jesse - is there a submit link for eyecandy?

I am seriously pretty boy focused right now.

Dcp, I love that! The paper looks leathery.

Survived today despite having to play sysadmin. There's good reason I'm not a sysadmin.

Holy shit, I just realized mom turns 70 in a couple months. I find this unnerving. (Doesn't help she's having hernia surgery the DAY before. Way to schedule, mom.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I guess not? But you can just throw it in the Good Stuff with a note... or leave it here for everyone!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I'm trying to decide if I want to go to Bethlehem VegFest this weekend. It looks like it'll be a lot of fun, but I'm not sure that I'll be able to handle driving there and then all the walking around and then driving back, all in one day, and I don't think I want to pay for a hotel room just for this.
