Oh whew. The person wrote back and has no intention of teaching the line dance to the racist song--she said she already raised the concern on the teacher email list and also she doesn't actually know how to do that dance. Yay!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Good thing, meara. One good thing today.

Theo, I'm so sorry about Muppet. And Steph and Tim, condolences for Toke. To be such small creatures, they leave big holes in our lives and hearts.

The guys around me were talking about food, and one talked about a roommate who would peer over his shoulder while he was cooking: "I see you're making eggs. Some 'yak and garlic on that would be great." 'yak is teriyaki sauce. So the guys started riffing on that. "I see you're making stroganoff. Some 'yak and garlic on that would be great." "I see you're making a cake. Some 'yak and garlic on that would be great." Then one said, "I see you're making a baby. Some 'yak and garlic on that would be great."

Cue the twelve-year-old-boy giggles. A couple of them glanced at me. I was giggling too. They all relaxed.

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

Timelies all!

I'm so sorry, Steph.

I gave Hazel a Very Stern Talking-To about never dying. Her response was a lot of "whatever," but that's her response to most

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

Listen for once, Hazel.

I got my new cat furniture and a delivered-earlier-than-expected case of wine into the house, dining on Lean Cuisine enchiladas and a Weight Watcher margarita. Embracing my cliche, I suppose. Unfortunately, a column broke off of the new cat tree while Miss Kitty was on it, dumping her into Lucy's enclosure. No harm done, but they were both pretty freaked out. Lucy has gotten over it entirely and is lounging against her fence as usual, Miss Kitty is hiding in the back of the linen closet, but that might have more to do with Jadzia taking over Miss Kitty's cat carrier. MK has already leapt over Walter while he was sprawled in the hallway a couple of times, so their acquaintanceship is progressing nicely.

Steph and Theo, I'm so sorry about your cats. They comfort us so much while they're alive that their absense leaves a large hole.

So, I have a recipe that calls for 1/3 cup of mini semisweet chocolate chips. I want to make half a recipe. Can I just get a Hershey bar and cut it up small? A whole package for 1/6 cup seems ridiculous.
