The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

We called them stickerballs.. Osage oranges were sometimes called horse apples.

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

I had to google Osage oranges. I don't think I've ever seen one.

Ditto here.

I just watched Gus Kenworthy win the men's slopestyle US Grand Prix—crossing my fingers he qualifies for the US skiing team in Pyeongchang.

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.

JZ, Bev, what a difficult thing. I'm so sorry.

Fuck cancer.

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

JZ, Bev, much love to you and your families. Best outcome ~ma for all of you. It's so damn hard.

I'm sorry about your BiL's diagnosis, Beverly.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Hairpats to all who need them. Holiday weekends should be better, even in January.

Ugh. It's a lesser issue, but I'm still annoyed. I came in today to find an ant infestation in my cube. There's an absolute ant jamboree in the next two cubes, where the residents left crackers and honey sitting out. But you know ants—they explore.

Luckily I work on a laptop, so I was able to just decamp and set up in an unused cube down the hall. Still, though, I keep feeing them crawling on me. Not cool, cracker and honey eating coworkers. Not cool at all.

Sorry, Bev.

Cancer really sucks.
