You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

That's a lotta steps -- make it to 15K or not, you're awesome.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Thanks! I know shrift and Kat and others probably do that most days, but it is a lot for me, especially since the PF started.

I need an Internet explanation. I saw Beyonce's new video (which is pretty awesome), but I don't understand the Red Lobster jokes going around Twitter. Can someone explain?

Oh, wait, I just saw the lyrics: there's a reference to going to Red Lobster in the song. Yay, I answered my own question.

I was trying to do my taxes but the turbotax site quit responding and Wells Fargo doesn't want to give me a 1099INT (though I think I can get that from statements.)

I marketed, haircuted, shopped, swam, replaced the dryer hose, doing laundry. More shopping tomorrow, more laundry, hopefully painting and dropping shit off at BARCS.

Before I moved, that was a usual day for me. Now I struggle to hit 10,000 steps during the week because of my commute.

Ok, making progress. But I gotta call WF. I think I need that 1099. And holy crap, even doing minimum amounts, donating 134 items of clothing adds up!

I walk fewer steps than you'd think. But I don't fitbit anymore for the most part. I use a misfit that counts different stuff now.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I'm sitting in my office listening to one show on the monitor in the hall and another on the monitor in my office, plus clear-com. One show just hit intermission and the other (which started 1.5 hrs earlier) is nearing it's 2nd intermission (of 3). It's a glamorous life.

Belated, forgotten pro tip: don't go to Trader Joes the day before the Super Bowl. I saw the lines, thought WTF, but didn't clue in until listening to the convos in line and surveying carts(not my regular TJs.) OTOH, they were running freebie contests (handing out #s and whenever a kid was at checkout, they spun a wheel) and I won! Got an extra tub of the almond biscotti (you got to pick.)

But holy jesus, last time I ran into lines like that was the first week of the Pikesville opening.
