Now hold on, I'm gonna press the right pedal harder. I expect us to accelerate.

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

Way to go, Sophia!

askye - the blurriness of headlights at night can be an early sign of cataracts. Best to get it checked out.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

You have to wonder why all facts that we should remember forever are not taught as catchy little songs. Schoolhouse Rock went a long way, but why not more of that?

My brother recently texted me an xkcd where the US map had 10 states strategically removed and asked whether I could figure out which ones were missing. In less than 5 minutes I had. He asked how I did it, had I cheated. And I said that no, i just know all 50 states in alphabetical order so I just went down the list. He thought that knowing all 50 states in alphabetical order sounded crazy - I replied that it was a song for 6th grade graduation, so I will know them forever.

I participated in a work trivia game on Thursday. I had the highest score on the Harry Potter section, and the second highest in the Friends section. And...just okay on every other section.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Sophia, I was going to suggest using the litter scoop to retrieve the body, but I see you got it done.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Bev, the litter scoop would have been brilliant!

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Did I miss my daily superpowers check-in?

No superpowers yet. I might have to go find a radioactive spider.

Less fatigue overall, cough is still trying to break through but it's mostly manged with prescription cough meds and an albuterol inhaler. Today is day 10 since my symptoms started, and day 14 for Tim (who also has less fatigue but still has this nagging cough; we have virtually identical symptoms, which seems statistically improbable).

Mom sent us an Edible Arrangement today, so we have a lot of fruit cut up in cute shapes, and the kitty has a helium balloon.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Hopefully you’ll both be in the clear soon Tep!

We sent one of those to my brother for his birthday. Its always sounded kind of silly but it was a big hit. And why not? It’s fruit! On sticks!
