No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I do love seeing the sun rise over the Hudson* in the mornings, as much as I hate leaving before it does so.

We recently had blinds installed in all the bedrooms and it makes waking up early a million times harder. Stupid dark. Stupid commute.

*Or, for mornings when I'm not across the bridge by sunrise, reflected in the Hudson from the other side.

Happy Birthday ladies!!

I have not celebrated sockober in the traditional manner of my people, the knitters. I have been working on a scarf this month instead of socks.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I am almost caught up on Great British Bake Off. Now what will I use to destress?

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

Happy birthday, Calli!

Happy birthday, Burrell!

Hm, socks. Warm thick soft knee socks. I need to go shopping.

I was up before dawn this morning! I love hearing the night-time insects and animals and the waking-up birds in the pre-dawn hour. Early to bed and early to rise works best for my mental health, if only I could stick to that schedule.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Happy Birthdays!

In non-sequitur posting:

I somehow missed the more recent stuff about OJ, and I had no idea that Ron Goldman was SO YOUNG!!! He was 25. I somehow was picturing a 50 year old man this whole time.

Our wings are not tired.

I can't imagine wearing socks any time soon.

Happy birthday wishes to Calli and Burrell! May your days be filled with treats and may all around you spoil you adequately.

I am programmed to wake with the sun and although it rises later here than in much of this country, it is still later than I need so I am forced to get up in the dark. Boo.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I wear socks all year long because my leg braces are too uncomfortable without socks. If it is really hot in the summer I'll we knee hi nylons.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Sophia, what recent stuff about OJ? The shows?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

If I remember correctly, Heart started life as a Led Zeppelin cover/tribute band, so their LZ covers are consistetly pretty amazing.

You are correct, Karl. I love Heart.

I missed Socktober, but I got a whole bunch of cute Halloween socks for myself and Peanut at Target yesterday.

Happy birthday, Calli & Burrell!
