I feel like they need to combine the new Norwegian obsession with slow tv (a 7 hour train ride in real time? Knitting?) with GBBO and show me all the delicious details
Ah, the pitter patter of tiny feet in huge combat boots. Shut up!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Glad your mom is doing better, Matt.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Dear Coworker:
When you use the term "Pampers" to describe adult incontinence briefs, it makes an impression. When you say, "Of course I didn't say it to [person we serve]! But if it was that important, they would have told me about it before now," it makes... well... pretty much the same impression. Please do not pretend that none of your training has included the concepts of speaking with dignity and age-appropriateness in mind. Believe if you like that I am simply being fussy when I suggest that you use care in your word choice. I was attempting to save you from the embarassment of being called on the carpet by a supervisor or worse, tick me off by using such poor choice of words in front of the people we serve that I really give you a talking-to.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Ok, that was unexpected. We're sitting here eating dinner, when Ryan starts singing (to the tune of Amazing Grace):
"I loooove Nixon's knee, it iiiis so weird..."
I'm thinking it's not the only weird thing going on here.

Our wings are not tired.
Well done, Ryan.
Taking a partial day off work, as in already have worked several hours today but getting ready to quit for the day because -
It is my Mom's 95th birthday!! How awesome is that? My sister came from NY so all her kiddos will be with her. My son's girlfriend took off the day from work so she could go visit her too. So several grandchildren to celebrate. Grateful.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
HBD to your mom!

Which TV chef yells at the contestants and makes them cry? Because that would be me.
Crying or yelling?
