Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I have "Rockin' Robin" which is perky, but annoying, two adjectives I fear are constantly being applied to me.

Also, I LIKE the PPL song "Amy." Go ahead, make something of it. I keep falling in and out of love with you.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

There are no songs with my name that I know of. But there are some songs about cows. Usually, fucking cows. I don't know why.

Keep breathing!

I've had Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons high-pitched, whiny "Sherry Baby" follow me around my whole life. HATE it. And I don't spell my name that way.

Yes, the spelling of my name is a reference to Shari Lewis. All the women I've met in my general age range who spell it this way blame the peppy, popular puppeteer for a name we could never find on those little personalized key chains, or bike license plates, or whatever. I had a Lamb Chop doll growing up, but nothing pre-printed with my name on it. You'd think if Shari Lewis was so popular and the name was around that much, we could have gotten a lousy keychain, you know?

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Back in the '70s, it was practically impossible to find pre-printed doohickeys with "Kathy" instead of "Cathy," and people automatically would write my name with a C instead of a K. Very annoying.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I have the rest of the day off. I am going to pack boxes while mac is with the sitter. I am going to attempt to pack 10 by 6 pm.

I'm getting the pig!

In high school (or maybe jr high) a couple of boys would request and then sing Darlin' Nikki by Prince to me every weekend at the roller skating rink. Considering what a total prude I was and considering how very not prude Prince's darlin' was, I was mortified the first time I heard the lyrics.

I'm amused NOW but still not enough to allow people to call me Nikki.

Happy Birthday to Cassiepants Cutiegirl!

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

I just realised I have a cousin called Shari Lewis. Hmm. I'm pretty sure it's a total coincidence.

Happy birthday, Cass!
