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

YAY!

(still sad though, at the missing it, of course).

OK, this cracks me up: so my neighbor's boy is playing with one of his bands tonight, and a couple other of my friends were going to join her. I wanted to go, but just had Too Much Shit To Do to go out tonight (which sucks, esp. since I bailed last time due to the Loki-trauma and I WANT to spend time with them.) But they are sending me the highlights via email. Oh, neighborhood, I lurve you!

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

The fact that I had a salad for dinner makes up that I spent the afternoon on the sofa eating chocolate, right?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Yes.

Because I hope the fact I had a beet salad for dinner means I can spend the evening on the sofa drinking wine.

When What Not To Wear says you shouldn't wear miniskirts over the age of 35, do they mean any skirt above the knee, or specifically shorter skirts?

I wear WAY more miniskirts now than I did before I turned 35! I don't even have really good legs (I mean, I do in that legs-to-build-an-empire-on way, but not in a traditional way). But this fall, I've been wearing really short corduroy skirts with tights and my black boots. I don't know why but it makes me happy. And I like short skirts because I'm pretty short.

Beets! NOM!

I made a tortellini soup that was delish. Had it with french bread from portos toasted in the oven. Tomorrow's dinner is going to be cream of parsnip soup. Or maybe that will be monday. Maybe tomorrow will be meatloaf with panko-crusted cauliflower? Dunno yet.

We have been housebound today because neither kid has been feeling great. We did make 10 dozen cookies (no seriously) so I'm all cookied out for the moment. We'll decorate them on Tuesday.
