Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

I woke up in the middle of the night by nearly biting the tip of my tongue off. It was bleeding a little and ow it hurt and then I couldn't fall back asleep for quite a while and I am whining all over the interwebs because I just want a do-over of my sleep before dealing with today.

Our wings are not tired.

Ouch!! Not a good plan. I hope the day allows for some rest.

Yow, that is a pretty sucky wake up call! Hope the rest of today takes it easy on you.

Oh man, that sounds painful. Sorry.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am at the point where I am too overwhelmed to get anything done, and it's a real problem. God willing, I will have time Thursday and Friday to plow through stuff. Of course I thought that last week, too.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

We just completed a home repair project. I did not get on the board on time to request your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. I also almost believed my husband when he said he wouldn't need my help ha ha ha ha.

However, the thing is fixed, the hot water is now consistent, and no one got hurt.

I feel like our husbands were cut from the same cloth.

Does Tim always say "This should be easy"?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

We've had a few home improvement projects done recently. By which I mean, we hired someone to do them. (Gary knows his limits.)

Actually, about an hour into what should have been a 20-minute project, he invariably says "There is NOTHING I can't make more complicated." Because in his quest to optimize things, it takes about 5 times longer than it should. Honestly, for any given project I try to think of how long it could *possibly* take if the slowest person in the world were doing it, and then I triple that estimate...and I'm still usually wrong. It boggles my mind.
