It's not like she blew me off. She just left with another guy, that's all.

Natter 74: Ready or Not  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

Crying or yelling?

Yelling at the people trying to punctuate properly. (Which is basically what my job is anyway. Except they aren't here in person, so I can't make them cry.)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I am not doing a good job of not stressing about husband's interview.

It would certainly be distracting. But I am grammatically perfect in practically every way.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Happy Birthday, Laura's Mom!

grammatically perfect

I was secretly hoping you would hyphenate that.

Don't think I didn't think about it.

(I did. We're all those people who've known each other so long that we can predict each other's jokes.)

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.

Happy birthday to Mom of Laura!

The grammar and punctuation cooking show stuff deserves to be COMMAed but I can't brain enough to do it myself.
