You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

Car insurance is a drag. We're footing the bill for both kids (18 and 21) until they are more on their feet and it really adds up with younger drivers.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Elsewehere in Greater Camberville, somebody had the Madonna stolen out of their front yard.

I'm not Catholic, but that seems like a good way to get yourself cursed.

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

TCG has a meeting tonight so it is pizza/movie night for ltc and myself. It's my turn to pick the movie. I'll have to figure out a good one she hasn't seen yet.

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

Well done, Matt!

Enjoy your vacation, askye! Yay having the house to yourselves!

The sky has that eerie quality it gets when there's a lot of smoke in the air. The nearest fire to me is the other side of a pass and the other side of the 80 so I feel pretty safe, but some of my friends are having to evacuate. I do not like fire season.

Fire bad, trees pretty?

Well, I wouldn't want to antagonize fire at this point, but...

Herding cats for fun

Oh this is lovely: it's already hot and now the air is full of smoke. If I close the windows I'll roast. If I open them and turn on the fan I'll poison myself. I've had too much already. Can this please let up for awhile?

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

Can this please let up for awhile?

Indeed.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Even though I don't go anywhere, I bought myself a nerdy little skirt on Etsy. I may end up buying the Halloween-themed skirt, too, even though -- once again -- I don't go anywhere.
