Has anyone mentioned that the Lincoln Library opened today?
That's my girl, large and in-charge. Okay, teensy-weensy and in charge.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Sarah Vowell was on the Letterman rerun last night, I think.

I have a plan.
There's a whole bit on the 'Incredibles' DVD that Sarah Vowell has where she talks about her book.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Edited, because I got confused.
I thought that was her. She's a little weird.

Emmett's dinner: half pint of raspberries (very ripe and in season); roast chicken, half ruby grapefruit, pumpkin pie and milk.
He was going nuts over the raspberries. I urge you all to take advantage of seasonal fruit.

ita, I've been meaning to ask, did the glass bowls survive me taking them to the car?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
They did, Perkins, and also survived me carrying them to the apartment. It might be a while before I unpack the box, though.
Got my cheque from the old landlords. They deducted ~$100 in underpaid rent. I have a beef with that, but no urge to actually talk to them. Pfft.

Oh good. Pfft to your landlord.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
They told me I owed them rent through when I gave the keys back. I told them I owed them rent through 30 days after I gave them 30 days notice.
They said they had no idea I had actually gone. I told them that they were not only advertising the apartment before I gave the keys back, they were showing it.
Their contention was that I didn't reply to the note they left on the door asking me if I'd moved yet.
I told them I never got the note, because I'd moved. They told me sometimes people don't move out when they say they will. I told them that should be those people's problem, not mine.
And if they wanted to time it by key return, they needed to show me where it was written down.
But that was a long time ago, and just writing it down has made me tired. Arguing with the people whose boneheadedness is the reason I moved out?
Maybe not.

In other TV watching news tonight, Rory almost made me cry. Seriously, I was tearing up.
