You're talking to Serenity. And, Early... Serenity is very unhappy.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Cool! Thanks, David.

I think we had Dutch Sneakers and Polka Bats. Super fun!

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

Unimpressed and kind of blaming the person for doing the thing.

Hmmm. So, not a flat expression or blank face.

How similar to or different from "narrowed eyes"?

I'm trying to make feel what my expression does when I am projecting what Volans said and I don't think my eyes narrow. Maybe a little. I think if I did it at you you would know, dcp? But how it is different from my normal face I would be hard pressed to say. It's almost like blank and blanker

I think I know what this is, but I don't know how to describe it. My friend Maria does it. It is almost like she removes herself from her surroundings and is in another place, where she is not having this conversation. It is like the eyes that are the window of the soul become opaque.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I think narrowed eyes are more like they see you, they recognize what you're saying and they do NOT approve. The flat eyes strike me as having removed themselves from the whole situation. Either you're going on and on and you've passed your attention span or you're having (or trying to have) an out of body experience.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

I just saw a MAGA dreidel (shin, hay, gimel, hay)

I'm trying to understand the letter change and what is supposed to mean in Hebrew now and failing. There's no meaning there. Maybe because I'm tired after a somewhat difficult day, but I have no idea what happened there or why.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ooh. Time to haunt the bagel place, Jesse?

Sadly, they don't live close enough to me for that to be practical!

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

Calli the Gruffalo was one of ltc’s favorite at that age. It’s so much fun to read.

I am pretty certain that there is truly no meaning there, Shir
