Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Jesse, that sounds like photosensitivity, if you're getting a rash that develops about 24 hours after being in the sun.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh yeah, it's definitely that, although I didn't realize it was just a delayed reaction to the burn. It's not a reaction to anything, though -- I inherited it from my grandmother. Luckily, I also inherited darker skin from my other grandmother, so it's not that severe or common. I just have to use sun screen, which I haven't done much of this weekend.

After continued reading, I bet that's part of why they thought my grandmother had lupus one time. (It's never lupus.) The bad news was, the drugs they gave her for the "lupus" sent her totally psychotic. Terrifying.

God bless the inventor of Venetian blinds, for I can lay in my chair sans clothing in front of a fan and not give a fuck.

I got attacked by a flock of mockingbirds.

Did you mock them? 'Cause that's how you get attacked by mockingbirds.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

As recounted in the classic song, Ï Mocked The Flock And The Flock Won".

I rescued a baby from the sidewalk and put it in a plant on my neighbor's porch. For my efforts, my butt got pinched, my head pecked, and they used the straps of my tank to hang on so they could beat me harder with their wings. Mockingbirds get MAD.

That's a legit attack! Yikes.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Wow! Around here it's red-winged blackbirds to watch out for. [link]
