Well played, LA Times.
Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
You guys, I got an email "advertising" cheese toothpaste, and... I kind of want it?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Mac came home about 9pm last night. We haven't spoken. I've been sending him texts. He was not up and ready for school by the time I left so he got there so e other way.
That's what I'm doing now, just giving him the parameters I need him to fit into if he wants my assistance. He has repeatedly not followed rules about phone tracking being on, so I am no longer paying for any data on his line, he can get his own service if he wants it. Same for internet, he can pay for half the bill if he wants it and then it will be in without restrictions. He wants freedom then he can pay like an adult.

Sometimes it's better to just have the consequence than the yelling and so on -- easier to process and absorb the lesson (one hopes).
Rosemary may be moving to regular room today, so things are progressing well.
I acquired rolling papers so project Smoke Pot would be on but if I have to go over to the hospital later, that's probably not a great idea...

Yeah, that sounds fair.

That seems like a reasonable approach, msbelle.
Your will-these-leaves-ever-get-smoked? saga is amusing me a lot, Theo

Our wings are not tired.
DH walks into the LR and sees Trinity on the couch, and Scully on the next cushion, both snoozing peacefully. They don't get along at all as dog wants to play and cat doesn't, resulting in much hissing and barking. It was the same with Zoe, but they just ignored each other after a couple days so I expect the same here. DH says something about me giving up on keeping Trinity off the couch, and I had the first opportunity of my life to respond:
This is a case where I am going to let sleeping dogs lie.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
The LA Times story trolling the NYT is pretty funny:
BWAH! Hilarious.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Forgive me if I have asked this before and just don't remember the answer. Do we still have a nail polish box being sent around? I have a bunch of nail polishes that I absolutely never use, and I'd hate to just throw them out.

Good one, Laura.
