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

The only reason I didn't forget lunch was because I had no lunch to forget. But that is something, I suppose.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Which means (1) you won't be missing the lunch you'd packed at home and (2) you won't go home to some ... um, aged ... tuna salad.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

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

Strix, I'm so glad Cosmo is home safe! You were clever as hell, baiting that trap like you did. I'm sure that's what lured her in.

I've eaten something green. There was broccoli in my pasta chicken salad and I didn't have the will to pick it all out. I'm determined that that won't be the only grown-up thing I do today. I'm off to wash the bed linens now. Later I'll gird my loins and clean the kitchen.

I abhor the tedium of the never-ending daily chores. The more stuff you have, the more of your time goes into maintaining it.

Relatedly, someone needs to invent a self-cleaning carpet.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I abhor the tedium of the never-ending daily chores.

Washing dishes drives me nuts because I just get the sink empty (some people aim for inbox zero; I aim for sink zero) and then someone who shall remain nameless comes along with a dirty tupperware from his lunchbag and puts it in the sink. PERFIDY.

This is why when I get my dishes all washed ( a rare event) I like to eat out for at least a couple of meals. I haven't worked out a practical way to not generate laundry, yet.

It was kind of revelatory to me to look at a pile of useful dishes and think "If I didn't have these, I wouldn't have to wash them. Hm, thrift store."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's fucking fantastic.

Why am I so tired??? (It's definitely not Ebola.)

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

Just found out we can elect to put a sign on our door on Friday to have Trick or Treater's knock and get treats. Now the decision - to buy candy and put out the sign or not. Will consult the "kids" in my house.

Work is a cluster today. Might have to take a karate break.
