I get confused. I remember everything. I remember too much, and... some of it's made up, and... some of it can't be quantified, and... there's secrets.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Kat - your basket of deliciousness looks wonderful.

Time for me to wrestle the sandman for some good rest. I did accomplish the evenings tasks including stuffed pork chops for dinner and pretty red nails with frosty tips.

And I remembered to schedule my rent payment. Can't believe I almost missed that one.

To sunny day goal achievement!

Psych was a lot of fun.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Thanks, Suzi! I hope you get lots of rest. I should be headed to bed, but shit. It seems like too much work.

I have also somehow misplaced the Dec 10 Martha Stewart I wanted for bark recipes. Growl and grumble!

I put up the advent calendar (we stuff ours with tiny ornaments that we then put on a tiny tree on the mantle, though right now Megatron is also on the tiny tree for safe keeping) and the stockings. I've also pulled out the set of winter holiday books and we read Chanukah by Tommie de Paola.

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

I went with everything on this page (including all the bottoms in small and medium) to work out what fits/looks best. And then I also got this in case I can indeed wear halter (it was a bit delicate across my traps). So nothing exciting--the first one does look a bit like a bra, but I guess that comes with the cup size. We'll see what I keep and what I send back.

Nice, I hope some of that works. Good call getting all the options to try.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Thanks Spidra, Liese, and Matt for the guitar recs. I love McCabes and it's right by my house. Hmmm.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

skimming through. In re: bonny's difficult clients, I think a lot of people who feel entitled to a certain life, also feel entitled to their resentment and anger when they don't get it. Being asked to let go of their anger and resentment feels like being asked to give up yet one more thing they have a right to. Even if they see how things would be better if they were less angry, they can't get past feeling like they shouldn't have to be the one who needs to change.

not your mom's socks.

I just finished the donation we're making to Noah's school fundraiser. It's a bit lame-o but I hope whoever gets it isn't disappointed. This is ALSO how I feel about secret santas.

Having been one of your lucky giftees in the past, let me reassure you that disappointment is impossible. You are thoughtful, original, & creative. Also, talented. Food-related gifts are a great idea.

Also, do not want to be awake at this time. Ugh. Shut up brain.

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

I concur. I've been wearing the scarf you made for me nearly daily.
