Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

If the doctor says he can see your muscle spasming, do you imagine that the muscle is moving? Or just locked tight?

Moving, I'd say.

hip deep in pie

I'd play msbelle, but either this ancient iPad or the hospital wifi is not cooperating.

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

I made it to the wine tasting down the street this week! It was fun and I won cannoli, so yay.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

First world problem. I make a batch of cupcakes and a batch of icing. End up with extra icing. Make another batch of cupcakes and need to make more icing and still end up with extra. Not enough for a third batch, so if I make more, I need to make more icing. I'm running out of people to give cupcakes. I may resort to practicing on a sheet of plastic. Using up the current extra icing. But it just doesn't provide the same oooooh-ahhhh of decorating a tasty treat.

Why aren't cupcakes more mailable? Y'all's mailboxes would be bulging.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Moving, but for values that may include twitching without actually moving the bones to which it is attached.

Wine night turned vodka and tonic night and thank goodness I am taking tomorrow off. Even if it is for a hot date with the grinder on the railing. I bought special gloves but figure I'll fuck up my forearms for another 6 weeks. I have clamps and cobalt bits, just missing the bolts and nuts.

I spent the evening cleaning out my bathroom cabinets, which was quite satisfying, even if only I will ever notice.

But now my stupid wifi is being weird.

Also, I am watching "House Hunters: Off the Grid"--people moving to Bhutan. $20/month, for a house, but no indoor running water (tap outside!) and tigers?? Oh, but hey, at that one you can get internet. For $60/month you can have a squat toilet and a spout to collect water in a bucket to pour over yourself. But no internet. And no tigers!

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Yes, but did they lament the lack of an open concept living area and granite counters?

I don't watch those shows, but that made me laugh.

Last chance to wear white pants to the office for the year! Until I decide I'm not bothering to follow that rule, but it's a good excuse for me to have worn white jeans 3/5 days this week.
