I'm 17. Looking at linoleum makes me want to have sex.

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

Got it. Still gobsmacked by passage of time, but have the people straight in my head for now.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

It is impossible that Dominic is now old enough to legally drive. It is also impossible that my father just turned 80. Time is moving entirely way too fast. I would really like it to slow down.

Yep and yep re: passage of time. Nilly sent me a picture of her children next to a hanukkiah yesterday - they are so big! Impossible.

When I joined here my niece wasn't old enough for a cell phone. Now she's married and due to give birth any day. Time, man.

I have a dental appointment at a new place today. Wish me healthy bony protrusions!

Our wings are not tired.

"How did it get so late so soon? It's night before it's afternoon. December is here before it's June. My goodness how the time has flewn. How did it get so late so soon?" ― Dr. Seuss

Good luck with the dentist, Calli. I found one nearby with good reviews that I need to check out. I love going to the dental school, but it is over an hour each way in heavy Fort Lauderdale traffic and just too time consuming.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good luck, Calli!

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

My nephew was 2 (or almost 2) when I started hanging around here. He'll be 19 in a couple weeks.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Remember how old Holli was when she started posting? She's on Tumblr talking about being a fandom old, and she's not wrong.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
