The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

They let preteens take a driving test? What?

The passage of time freaks me out.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

He's like six! What kind of craziness is Texas getting up to these days anyway?

Ann, that's a ferret.

I've told y'all about my dad's idea of retirement ("I'm not retiring! I'm just going to... not go to my job any more so I can go to law school instead!").

I like that spirit. I become eligible to retire next September. I may or may not retire right away, but I'm too young to sit on a porch reminiscing.

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

I am not too young to sit on a porch reminiscing. FTR. Would be more than happy to retire right now if it was financially feasible.

Good luck to Mac and calm~ma for msbelle (for the test and for when he is driving in the future!)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Never a safe question to ask.

Ha! I found AA batteries and got the menorah lit again. It was bumming me out sitting there all dark.

This is not how I learned that story...

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

believe it or not he is kinda late getting his license. 1) I made him wait until 16 to get the learner's permit. 2) He could have gone to take the test for license in October.

He will be 17!!! in April. I believe it because I see him everyday, but HOLY HELL.

OTOH - Graduation day is June 1, 2019 AND I CANNOT WAIT!!! 529 days!! He MUST know what he is doing post graduation BY THEN, so I will know also. Move date out of Texas will be either Labor Day weekend 2019 or 2020!!

I like a plan.
