We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I love it when paintings are unexpectedly found to be important and/or pricey.

It wasn't quite that pricey, but a drawing that had hung in my grandmother's foyer for as long as anyone could remember turned out to be a previously unknown Kubin, worth about $20,000. We have no idea where or when or why she bought it -- her apartment was filled with paintings, but none of the others were worth anywhere near this much, and it was really a remarkably ugly painting.

It's the first one on this page: [link] It looks a bit prettier now that it's not behind glass with half a century worth of grime.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Happy birthday not-a-baby-K!

Now tagless for your comfort.

Welcome to Twoberty, K!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Turn two, the rest are for food!

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

Happy birthday, K!

I am giving in to my cold today too, Jesse. The sinus pressure is just too much to bear. No work for me.

I need to try the bagels here. But more importantly, I'd love to find a place that transports either Montreal bagels or Jamaican patties. Tastee or Juici only, thanks.

Okay, now to go find the cold meds again. Why do Theraflu pills have a deliberate flavour? They're so disgusting. And I was trying to avoid the nast of cough syrup.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good call, ita. No work!

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

I am about to be bored shitless, but hopefully I can sleep.

Since I finally got spare keys made up, I decided to get keyrings I like. I just bought this and placed an advance order for this. I need one more keyring, and I would totally get this except I can't find it and probably couldn't afford it. Haven't seen another like that that I like.

Can't decide what my third keyring should be. I used to have a thing for the ones that had an inside spinny thing like this, but it's hard to find the right logo/whatever in that style. I also had this, but it's terribly fragile. I don't actually like any Supernatural ones enough, or I'd be all over that.

What keyrings do you guys carry?

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

My keyrings are the fob that opens and locks my car. No imagination, me.

My keyring has a blue glass trinket from Greece that supposedly wards off the evil eye. It's pretty, and it makes my keys easy to find in the depths of my purse.
