Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ugh, that is a bummer, Laura.

But, I thought about how much a Brookline parking ticket would cost me, and that with the increased traffic in the neighborhood, the meter maids would be out in force, so I said screw it and left even though I was next in line.

So close and yet so far!

X-ray~ma, meara!

I'm finding "I almost bought some pot but I was afraid of getting a parking ticket" a delightful story, Theo! What a time to be alive.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

There was a news story a while ago about a state legislator who would be voting on legalizing marijuana in his state (Utah?) and - amazingly - decided he should know what it was about. So he had a friend drive him (no driving under the influence for him!) to a neighboring state where it was legal (Nevada?) and bought a little baggie of gummies. And tried them ... and didn't notice any effect.

Timelies all!

My legs hurt.

I have eaten my cake. I don't have it anymore.

So it's true then?

My data supports the thesis, Epic.

Because books.

I have no cake. And now I'm sad.
