Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Caleb and Joshua. I'm still waiting to hear about the other baby born this week!

Our wings are not tired.

I love the name Caleb.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Caleb is a great name, even if I associate it with the guy that put Xander's eye out.

When I was at BevMo, I thought I might pick up a bottle of Oban. $70???? Googling, I see it for around $50. I'm replacing a bottle. Did I really have a bottle of $50 whiskey in my house--and FINISH IT? When did I become that girl with those guests? And who were those guests?

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Good grief, got my electric bill and it's FOUR HUNDRED DOLLARS!!!! That's over four times what I normally pay, and that's their *estimate*. How can they look at my past bills and *guess* at such an increase??!?!!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Sadly, grievously, tragically, not me.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

That's probably better than a $50 bottle of Tequila.

Maybe.

Ha ha!

Also: Ugh, Liese and Juliebird. At least if your bill is a crazy high estimate, you won't have to pay next month.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

We got the same electric bill, Juliebird. After I regained consciousness (from, you know, fainting when I saw the bill), I told The Boy that we need to schedule a meter reader ASAP.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Okay, the internet is nothing if not good for other people wailing. I think I've ordered the correct proprietary part from Amazon. Oops, forgot to use the link. But anyway, it was five bucks. It cost more for the shipping than the product. But it better turn up promptly.

Uh...that I've done. Multiple sorts at a time. But I'm a tequila girl. I don't know whiskey from...well, Oban's the only brand I could tell you. I bet it's Plei's fault.

I noticed a bottle of $120 Appleton rum behind glass at BevMo. I drooled a little. 21 years old. The fanciest I've had is the XL.

Huh. Suddenly I want to date men and drink alcohol that's the same age.
