Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

It's out of the oven and looks good. Looks a bit, er, homemade, but that's okay too

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

Homemade is what he wanted, right?

Tough call, Jesse. I guess if none of the jobs you are looking at are really calling to you passing makes sense, but don't stay forever to make things easier for other people!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I know, I know. We'll see how I feel tomorrow, I guess.

I'm sure it's delicious, Burrell! Mmmm....cheesecake.

Given my low-carb aspirations went out the window when the post-church lunch was a tuna-noodle casserole, I just ate a big chunk of chocolate (get it out of the house! Valentine's Day!), and now I regret it.

Banana break with spiced rum for the win. 3 loaves from a double (?) batch.

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

I am starting to feel like I might actually be sick and not just lazy, low-grade feverish.

Me too. What the heck. My neck and shoulders are all stiff and achey, for no reason I figure, and I feel like I have a bit of a fever. I'm gonna take vitamin C and go to bed.

ION, it's snowing hard here now. We're supposed to get ~7 inches tomorrow, and then Tuesday it'll be 50 degrees. Whatever, Winter.

I love tuna-noodle casserole in that comfort food way, and I grew up with a mom who never made it because that was the kind of food she was running away from when she moved to California. But I have always loved it, and yet, like my mom, I never make it.

A lighter side. Neil Gaiman has caught the Gruniad in what is either an error or a brilliant bit of front-page commentary. Brits will especially appreciate this, but I think the rest of us can pretty much get the gist

Today started with a complete password meltdown. And not because I forgot it!

I want to cancel today.

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

Timelies all!

Snowing here. Supposed to turn to wintry mix later. Joy.

Same! Except my mother didn't move to California. But she wasn't one for casseroles.
