Xander: I do have Spaghetti-os. Set 'em on top of the dryer and you're a fluff cycle away from lukewarm goodness. Riley: I, uh, had dryer-food for lunch.

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

I hope you got your houseboat.

Narrator: "Laura, did not get her houseboat."

Happy Gotcha Day!

Happy Re-Org!

Snitches Get Stitches Update: I have removed the pressure bandage from my forehead so I no longer look like I'm wearing a maxi-pad on my face. However, I now have visible stitches (underneath the steri-strips). Still not taking the pressure bandage on my arm because I'm more likely to bump my arm than my head.

I am trying to get some mail out the door. Do the thing, Zhu-Li! [Korra ref.]

This afternoon I am stealing my children from their regularly scheduled lives to go get the Xmas tree and set it up.

I just figured out that Matilda's Xmas break is way longer than either one of us thought: from Dec. 13th to January 26th. She'll pick up some more shifts at work and will, no doubt, enjoy the time with her beau. But I'm looking forward to having a housemate again.

Aw, I love (and feel) that poem, Tom.

Yay, Christmas tree shopping! I am good with holiday spirit, but I do not have the omph for the ginormous tree this year... I feel like that may be a permanent state. I think I would be fine with a 5 footer, but that's about it.

I should try to sell the big one for a modest sum -- it's a really nice one, and the lights all still work, but it's too much bigness anymore.

I bought a one color per page coloring book, and it is so cool. I can absolutely get lost in it. FB totally pegged me with that ad. (I mean, obvi, you could use more colors, but the single color with the white shapes is super cool, and not having to stop and think about which color next and where is very soothing.) I'm finally using my markers that have a paintbrush-like tip. Super fun.

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

Aw, LiveJournal. Those were the days.

I'm finally using my markers that have a paintbrush-like tip. Super fun.

Oh, neat! I'm slowly going through recorded, uh, seminars? Workshops? Thingies from a conference for nature journaling. Anyway, doing that with my mom and some of them are, like, art techniques you might want to explore or whatever. The one we did last involved "brush pens" which might be what you are talking about? Pretty neat. Today is something about data visualization which will probably be a change of pace from the art stuff, but who knows?
